Brad Wrenn and Abby Kinch are dedicated advocates for student veterans, each bringing a wealth of experience and insight into higher education for this unique community. Brad, who served as a meteorologist in the Army and now specializes in executive education and leadership, emphasizes the importance of viewing student veterans as assets and bridging the gap between civilian and military student communities. Abby, a former enlistee post-9/11 and current chief of staff at Student Veterans of America, underscores the necessity of institutional support, such as a single point of contact and veteran-specific orientation programs, to navigate the complexities of higher education. Both Brad and Abby highlight the need for tailored resources, including childcare, financial aid, and comprehensive advising, to foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for student veterans.
