VET NET Ally Awareness Program

 

VET NET Ally Mission

The VET NET Ally Program is an education and awareness program that develops a network of faculty, staff, and administrators committed to creating a welcoming and supportive campus environment for military service members and veterans that study at CSULB.

The VET NET Ally Program supports the academic freedom and professional, personal, and social success of service members and veterans,

provides support, information, and assistance for service members and veterans,

respects the right to privacy and confidentiality of veterans and service members in accordance with the Confidentiality Statement in the VET NET Ally Handbook, and

creates a welcoming environment for service members and veterans at CSULB by having Allies across campus display their VET NET Ally symbols at their workstations.

Seminar Information

The VET NET Ally seminar is a half day event focused on the needs and concerns of military service members and veterans studying at CSULB.

The seminar includes:

  • VET NET Ally program mission and CSULB's approach to assisting veterans in their academic pursuits
  • Veterans experiences in the classroom
  • Military and post-service culture
  • Why I joined? An experiential activity addressing the reasons men and women join the military
  • Veterans issues in Higher Education
  • Student veteran Panel
  • Becoming an Ally

At the end of the seminar, participants are given a decal to display in their workspace to show that they are Allies to CSULB’s student veterans.

The VET NET Ally Program extends sincere gratitude to the CSULB VetNet student organization and to the CSULB Safe Zone and AB540 Ally programs whose successful models provided the framework and invaluable guidance during the development of this initiative.
