Syracuse University has a long
history of engaging veterans and the military-connected community through its educational programs, community outreach, and employment
programs. After World War II, Syracuse University welcomed more than 10,000 returning veterans to our campus, and those veterans literally
transformed Syracuse University into the national research institution it is today. The Universitys contemporary commitment to veterans
builds on this historical legacy, and extends to both class-leading initiatives focused on making an SU degree accessible and affordable to
the post-9/11 generation of veterans, and also programs designed to position Syracuse University as the employer of choice for military
veterans, members of the Guard and Reserve, and military family members.
