Going to college can be a bit overwhelming for anyone. In the case for veterans returning to school it is even more daunting.

That's why one NIU student group is helping them acclimate to living a civilian life as a student.

 

Wow! I think that is such a great idea.

750 veterans is a fairly large number and if they can have a place to call there's and feel more at ease while entering back into the college life then I'm all for it. Everyone needs a place that they can feel safe and call home when they are away from home.
