The UCA Veterans and Military Resource Center will be hosting a special event called “Arts and Artifacts, a Veterans Perspective.” All staff, faculty and students are invited to attend! Please join our student Veterans in classroom 134 of the Veterans Center for a short presentation on the purpose of our Veterans Center and why we do what we do.

Then we will walk the group down the Veterans Center Hall to see the student-created veterans’ centric art and poetry. We will also have numerous artifacts belonging to our military student population on display. These items of memorabilia reflect the unique experiences our student veterans bring to the classroom and demonstrate the precious resources that our student vets and service members are.

March 10, 2026 (Tuesday)
X-Period (1:40 pm-2:30 pm)
Veterans Center, Classroom 134
Presenters: Greg Pelts, Director of UCA Veterans and Military Resource Center
