Veterans Affairs Launches Magazine to Showcase Students, Services

Governors State University’s Veterans Affairs Department recently launched a digital magazine to showcase the services and student veterans connected with the university. “Honored” was released just weeks after the university was named to the  2019 “Best of the Best” list by “U.S. Veterans Magazine.” This is the fifth consecutive year that the university has been acknowledged as one of the top military-friendly schools in the country.

GSU Veterans Director Kevin Smith said "Honored" magazine is appropriately named, not only for the "Best of the Best" recognition, but also for its focus on the successes of the 350+ military-connected families that the university serves.

"I cannot think of a better word to describe our student veterans,'' he said, "and we strive to deliver a seamless experience for these men and women, as they transition from military to civilian life. We deliver a host of services including benefits counseling, networking, internship placement assistance, and career planning.”
