Triton College Salutes Our Nation's Veterans and Prepares for Their Return

Triton College is proud to continue supporting our nation's veterans and their families. As they return home from their service abroad, Triton will work to give them support and recognition.
With members of the Vets 4 Vets Support Group and Triton counselor Mary Casey-Incardone, veterans will share their personal insights on Tuesday, Nov. 9, in the Triton College Center for Teaching Excellence, located in the E Building, Room E-210, located on the west side of Triton's main campus, 2000 Fifth Ave., River Grove.
This exchange will allow Triton faculty and staff to better understand specific problems veteran students may face when attending Triton, and how to best serve and engage these students in the learning process. Viewers of the presentation will be given an opportunity to ask the Triton veterans questions pertaining to this fascinating topic.
On Monday, Nov. 8, at 7 p.m., Triton will recognize our nation's veterans with a Free Movie Night at the Cernan Earth and Space Center (west side of campus). All veterans and their families are welcome to attend. The show will include the laser-light music show titled Patriot and the C-360 wraparound film Seasons on the dome screen. Veterans will be presented with ribbons and flowers by the Austin Town Hall Girl Scouts.
Triton is also hosting a veterans networking meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 17, 1-2 p.m., in the Triton College Student Center (B Building, Room B-130, west side of campus).
Community members who are veterans are invited to attend this bimonthly networking group gathering and visit with other veterans as they work towards their academic and career goals; share useful information, such as employment, G.I. Bill, benefits, etc.; and plan social events, such as parties, book discussions, coffees, etc.
This is a great opportunity for individuals to obtain valuable information pertinent to veterans and their families.
