Towards Constructing Military-Connected Student Inclusion | UW–Madison Diversity Forum 2024, Day One

Similar to a few other large, public institutions, UW-Madison’s history is inextricably intertwined with that of the nation’s military. This highlights the critical importance in supporting the unique needs of student veterans, service members, and family members. Supporting military-connected students requires learning more about military-connected identities and experiences. Often presenting in invisible ways, military-connected identities can be obscured by other aspects of student identity. Working towards inclusive environments for military-connected students at UW-Madison becomes possible once prepared to understand the transformative power of community.

This session seeks to elevate current military-connected student stories and provide support for them to voice their experiences. A student panel of current UW-Madison military-connected students is central to the focus of this session.
