empowered to create more inclusive learning spaces andlesson designs. In order to best meet ADVs’ academic needs, additional faculty and advisingstaff training and education needs to be made accessible across campuses, ensuring increasedawareness of pervasive veteran myths. Additionally, enhanced, iterative, Green Zone training oncampuses, in a context that explicitly incorporates knowledge about the existence and potentialharm of stereotypes, could be an important resource to include in diversity, equity, and inclusioninitiatives—as well as departmental curricular design forums—as we seek to create classroomexperiences where everyone feels like they belong in our classrooms.Future WorkBest practices for meeting the needs of our active duty and

better understand the veteran experience, its unique strengths and balances, and confrontbias [10]. Following Green Zone training, attendees usually receive some visual designation (e-badge or physical sticker) to signal their office or person is a veteran ally.3. Resultsa. Role and Level - The use of roles provides very interesting profiles, but additional definition isrequired to understand the experience level and course levels of instructors, senior instructors,associate, and full professors.Generally assistant professors have been faculty for fewer than 6 years, are heavily focused ongaining tenure generally through research, and, therefore, may teach more graduate level courses,depending on institutional priorities and faculty development

addedbenefit of earning a bachelor's degree makes the graduate more competitive in the hiring market. Another benefit for Veterans using GI Bill benefits to obtain flight training at aninstitution of higher learning (IHL) is that all the flight training will be covered. Veteransobtaining flight training at a flight school not connected to an IHL must obtain their Private Pilotcertificate at their own expense. [7] The only expense that the GI Bill will not cover is any feerelated to credentialing. Due to this, Veterans using the GI Bill for the APSU program will haveto pay the examiner’s fee for both the written knowledge test and the practical test (check ride) ateach stage of training. Fees for the written knowledge tests vary between $150

, some promising practices uncovered in this study are similar to best practices formilitary student support described within the literature. For example, Participant C’s institutionhas a military awareness class for undergraduates and a transition class to help nontraditionalstudents (especially veterans) transitions to higher ed. Both classes use military principles in tobenefit military and non-military students [24], [26]. Recognizing the important similarities inbenefits between these classes and other classes in research lends weight to the idea that sharingthese promising practices could be beneficial to increasing support for military students in thecontext of higher engineering education in the western United States.ConclusionLittle
