Whats Next for Student Veterans?: Moving From Transition to Academic Success: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Whats Next for Student Veterans?: Moving From Transition to Academic Success" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

With the passage of the Post-9/11 GI Bill in 2008, more than 1.4 million service members and their families became eligible for higher education benefits, and veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan enrolled in colleges and universities in record numbers. The first wave of research about these new student veterans focused primarily on describing their characteristics and the transition from military service to civilian life and the college campus. This new edited collection presents findings from the second wave of research about student veterans, with a focus on data-driven evidence of academic success factors, including persistence, retention, degree completion, and employment after college. An invaluable resource for educators poised to enter the next phase of supporting military-connected college students.

The National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience and Students in - photo 3

The National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience and Students in Transition was born out of the success of University of South Carolinas much-honored University 101 course and a series of annual conferences on the first-year experience. The momentum created by the educators attending these early conferences paved the way for the development of the National Resource Center, which was established at the University of South Carolina in 1986. As the National Resource Center broadened its focus to include other significant student transitions in higher education, it underwent several name changes, adopting the National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience and Students in Transition in 1998.

Today, the Center collaborates with its institutional partner, University 101 Programs, in pursuit of its mission to advance and support efforts to improve student learning and transitions into and through higher education. We achieve this mission by providing opportunities for the exchange of practical and scholarly information as well as the discussion of trends and issues in our field through convening conferences and other professional development events, such as institutes, workshops, and online learning opportunities; publishing scholarly practice books, research reports, a peer-reviewed journal, electronic newsletters, and guides; generating, supporting, and disseminating research and scholarship; hosting visiting scholars; and maintaining several online channels for resource sharing and communication, including a dynamic website, listservs, and social media outlets. The National Resource Center serves as the trusted expert, internationally recognized leader, and clearinghouse for scholarship, policy, and best practice for all postsecondary student transitions.

Institutional Home

The National Resource Center is located at the University of South Carolinas (UofSC) flagship campus in Columbia. Chartered in 1801, the Universitys mission is twofold: (a) to establish and maintain excellence in its student population, faculty, academic programs, living and learning environment, technological infrastructure, library resources, research and scholarship, public and private support, and endowment; and (b) to enhance the industrial, economic, and cultural potential of the state. The Columbia campus offers 324 degree programs through its 15 degree-granting colleges and schools. In fiscal year 2015, faculty generated $243 million in funding for research, outreach, and training programs. UofSC is one of only 32 public universities receiving both Research and Community Engagement designations from the Carnegie Foundation.

One of the greatest pleasures of serving todays student veterans is to see them progress year-by-year through a program of major study, take the life-changing walk across the stage to receive a degree, and move into the workforce well prepared for the next chapter in life. As those of us who work with this unique student population know, a student veterans path through the higher education landscape can be strewn with potential academic and personal landmines. For example, most of these students have been out of school for years, some are married with children, others face formidable challenges associated with physical and psychological injuries, and many are likely to have a combination of several challenges.
