Vanderbilt University will honor the service of military veterans and celebrate their unique contributions to campus culture through a series of videos, social media posts, photo exhibitions and more to commemorate Veterans Day on Wednesday, Nov. 11.
"Whether they are students, alumni, faculty or staff members, our veterans set an inspiring example," Chancellor Daniel Diermeier said. "They embody the character and resilience that enables us to achieve our common purpose. They strengthen our community and our ties to our nation. They contribute a vital perspective to our collective knowledge.
"Veterans understand deeply the meaning of leadership, service and community-values that are at the core of our identity as a university," Diermeier said.
