Veteran Student Lounge

As a student,  you’ll have access to a lounge  for our Veterans that includes coffee, snacks, a TV, tables, couches and chairs located in the Colloms Campus Center. It is your spot to relax, take a breather and to prepare for class. This space also provides a central gathering point where we can provide support and mentoring for one another.
