Why this school is an excellent choice for military membersUW-Green Bay understands and recognizes the sacrifice and selflessness of their veteran students. The Chancellor recognizes all veterans, students and staff, each November with a special community-wide reception. UW-Green Bay boasts extensive campus collaboration in support of veterans with representatives from the Dean of Students Office, Counseling and Health Center, Residence Life, Public Safety, Veterans Services and Disability Services. There is a dedicated staff person who works specifically with veterans as a campus point of contact. This staff member regularly seeks professional development training in areas of post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, sexual assault issues, and education benefits. UW-Green Bay has an active and growing Vets 4 Vets Club with strong student leadership. Its mission statement centers on providing student veterans updated benefit information and support, while building friendships with returning veterans and those who support our troops. The club’s outreach includes volunteer efforts with Bart Starr’s Training Camp for Seniors and at the Veteran’s Hospital at King, Wisconsin.
