Veterans & Military Advisory Council

The Veterans and Military Advisory Council is a group of campus stakeholders that work together to both provide a campus community that helps military-connected students find success, and to help the greater campus community understand the needs of our military-connected students. Comprised of both civilian and Veteran staff members, the Council's purpose is to be a "force multiplier" for Illinois State in supporting the many campus needs of our military and Veteran student population. The Council meets periodically to collaborate and discuss current topics and issues affecting all represented areas of campus so as to best work together in a seamless manner with both official programs and unofficial mentoring support.
