The Green Zone

The Green Zone aims to create awareness and education about military culture and service members trying to re-acclimate to civilian and college life.

About the Green Zone:

  • An initiative to support student veterans by designating locations recognized as a “safe place”
  • Identifies faculty and staff throughout TCSG who are knowledgeable about issues faced by student veterans and the resources available to assist them.
  • It is not only a Professional Development opportunity but also a way to be supportive of those who have sacrificed for others.
  • Helps faculty and staff provide supportive services necessary to ensure that veteran students are successful in their academic pursuits, adjust to the campus environment, and eventually transition to civilian employment.
