what has been done by librarians in the past, so that college anduniversity libraries across the country are better able to plan, implement, and assess potentialoutreach and assistive programs for veterans on their campuses, both residential and virtual.INTRODUCTIONSince World War II, there have been several “G.I. Bills” passed by Congress to provide benefitsfor veterans of America’s wars. The first, officially known as the Servicemen’s ReadjustmentAct of 1944, included low-cost mortgages and loans, a year of unemployment compensation, and(most importantly) dedicated tuition and living expenses for veterans attending college. By 1956,when the act expired, over 2.2 million veterans had successfully used the G.I. Bill to attend thecollege of

, and overall social stability.Southern Command, the Department of Defense’s Combatant Command responsible forrelationships with military leaders across the Caribbean, Central and South America investsannually in various programs that require military engineers to design, plan, and build projectsthat were requested by partner nations and approved by the commanding general. Theseprograms are critical to engineer officer and enlisted professional development. Engineer unitcommanders request these missions due to the realistic experiential training value and theproject’s alignment with deployment readiness skills. These State Department and CombatantCommander approved training projects provide engineer leaders and service members anopportunity to

underclassmen.Social ActivitiesResearch has shown that veteran students often have difficulty in connecting with other studentsand are typically only comfortable with other veterans [12]. These difficulties expand intostruggles in communicating with non-veteran peers and developing trust [13]. To build a strongcommunity and provide long term benefits to participants, a robust social program wasdeveloped at both universities. These events were planned to bring visiting veterans into the hostuniversity veteran’s groups and provide support during the program. Example events includedgroup meetings and outings with veteran and university leadership and outdoor activities(whitewater rafting, hiking, running). The graduate research assistant at each university

solvers.’Respondents with prior military experience reported positive views of veterans’ non-rigidthinking and creative problem-solving skills. This study recommends enhanced mentoring andindividuated academic planning for ADVs, conducted by academic professionals trained inGreen Zone allyship and aware of campus and local resources, as well as campus staff andfaculty who are veterans themselves and willing to be a resource.Educators, regardless of their civilian or military backgrounds, all want to serve the needs ofstudent veterans. Understanding the perceptual challenges that ADV students may face improvesour abilities as faculty to advocate for and advise them. Faculty are also better positioned toeducate other students and faculty, and

at a level not seensince the Vietnam War era. Most of these veterans use the Post-9/11 GI Bill, an educationalassistance plan for eligible veterans, but many more programs are available to veterans andactive duty military members. This paper presents an overview of many of these educationassistance programs available to this growing population. With no end date for the Post-9/11 GIBill and the demand for engineering degrees in an increasingly technical job market, largenumbers of veterans will continue to enroll in higher education institutions. Likewise, active dutymilitary members will be part of the engineering education landscape to support the currentdemand for technical expertise in the military. Every student has different needs and

A future research effort is planned to quantitatively assess the impacts of incentives,disincentives, and feedback in one study involving students. The research is being conductedwith a large enough sample size of different sections of students within the same course andlimits the number of faculty involved in teaching to reduce confounding variables in the study.The TEAMMATES tool provides the primary data collection at various points throughout thecourse (e.g., after an assignment, or incentive/disincentive event) to capture its impact on studentperformance. Other data will be collected through simple surveys Microsoft Forms at theappropriate times. Adequately sized control and test groups are used. For example, if oneinstructor teaches
