Military Student Advisory Council
我们的使命
In keeping with our mission to support and enhance the journey of our veteran and military family member students here at UTC, VMA understands that connection and communication are vital to success and growth. The mission of this council will be to address the needs and concerns of our veteran students from a campus-wide perspective, develop veteran liaisons with all student support service areas, and ensure that veteran students have a smooth transition from the military to campus with the necessary support and resources in place to promote academic excellence throughout their time here at UTC and beyond. This council is an opportunity to connect the greater Chattanooga community, 校友退伍军人, current student veterans, UTC的员工, 教师, and administration and unite with one goal in mind: student veteran support and what we want that to look like at UTC.
