Chico State Student Veterans Increase Community Awareness


Last week was a big success. The Chico State SVO got on the radio and got the word out. We tabled a couple of days on campus, bringing awareness to the student population. Our Round Table Fundraiser on Tuesday night was a success. We raised between $130-$200 dollars towards our conference trip. The conversations on diversity was a huge success on Wednesday. There were at least 50 students and faculty in attendance. 6 student veterans were a part of the panel that discussed our personal experiences in transition from Military to Education. The Wednesday night screening of Lioness had 20 people in attendance. We also had our first Women Veterans of Butte County meeting on Saturday. Overall it was a great week for the Student Veteran Organization. We are now looking forward to the Student Veterans of America national conference in San Francisco on April 17.
