OHIO Lancaster Veterans Office
µÛÍõ»áËù was one of 33 universities in µÛÍõ»áËù to be awarded the Collegiate Purple Star designation because of the University’s longstanding history of supporting military personnel in higher education. To meet the criteria, universities needed to have a dedicated military/veteran point of contact, priority registration for veterans and servicemembers, surveys for student veterans and servicemembers — along with their spouses and dependents — about needs and challenges and allow for the establishment of student-led groups and organizations for veterans and servicemembers.
