To provide our military service members and veterans with the resources, support, and advocacy needed
(2)

Student Veterans of America (SVA) is a national organization (see http://studentveterans.org/) and we are a new campus chapter at S&T. Our mission is to welcome veterans and military - to include ROTC cadets - to the university in order to ease and support the personal transitions between military and civilian life. We are a 'build the organization as we go along' -- 'solve issues as they come up' -- and 'help the campus do a terrific job of being veteran & military friendly' team.

Our Story

The Student Veterans Resource Center (SVRC) was founded in spring of 2016 through the dedicated work of the student veterans on campus and the Student Veterans Association (SVA). This initiative was implemented by the Student Veterans Association’s advisor, Steve Tupper, and its founder and president, Garrett Coffey.

The SVA was founded in 2013 to support student veterans on and off the S&T campus. In the spring of 2015, SVA was awarded a $10,000 grant from the Student Veterans of America (of which their organization is a chapter) and Home Depot to build a veterans center on campus.

S&T supported the work of SVA and the campus service members by funding the SVRC as a campus office, and by providing staff to run it. A location was off campus, ground floor, of the Baptist Student Union on 610 W. 10th Street.

After many meetings, lots of hard work, late-night sessions, and some luck, the center opened its doors early in the spring semester 2016. The best is still to come...
