Resources for Faculty and Staff
Welcome to the GW faculty and staff resource page dedicated to supporting military-affiliated students. This page features our monthly REACH session: Supporting Military-Affiliated Students, which offers practical insights and strategies to enhance your engagement with this unique student population. Additionally, we provide resources that cover a range of topics and request forms for various occasions. Together, these resources are aimed at equipping you with the knowledge and tools needed to foster a supportive and effective educational experience for our military-affiliated students.
Supporting Military-Affiliated Students
Studies by the American Council on Education have shown that keys factors to best foster student veterans' academic success is by having faculty and staff who are aware of their unique experiences and identities coupled with resources for their overall success. Our format is based on the successful “Green Zone” model devised at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU). Sessions will be delivered by full-time MVS staff and can be customized to fit the goals of you and your colleagues to better educate and support military-affiliated students.
