With the war in Iraq ending, thousands of members of the military will be re-entering civilian life. For many of these vets, their first priority will be their college education. Temple, for one, is ready for them. The number of veterans enrolled at Temple has doubled in the last year, to 505 this fall. "We set up a committee two years ago to address the needs and concerns of these students," said Laura Reddick, Temple's associate director for adult and veteran student recruitment. "It's not just getting them admitted, it's helping them succeed, to continue through to graduation." One important player is the Temple Veterans Association, a student group that holds networking events and job fairs as well as strictly social occasions.
