For all those who joined DePaul University's SVA Veterans Day luncheon, we truly appreciate your presence. We thank you for commemorating our student veterans and families.

For everyone who joined us today we appreciate you partaking in game night and enjoying some good Marine Corps birthday cake, (Marines could not wait to dig in!)

Happy Birthday Marines.

On November 10, 2021, U.S. Marines around the globe celebrate a 246-year legacy of battlefield prowess defined by courage, discipline, loyalty, perseverance, adaptability, leadership, and warfighting innovation.

The annual birthday message delivered by the Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. David H. Berger, and the Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps, Sgt. Maj. Troy Black, acknowledges the generation of Marines who joined after the terrorist attacks of 9/11, who later served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and who now approach their retirement milestone.

It also highlights the culture of innovation being cultivated by Marine leaders to enable the Marine Corps to remain America’s force in readiness—prepared to fight and win in every clime and place.

Happy birthday to the world’s greatest Air Force! (I swear I’m not partial because I’m a USAF vet!)

Today is our 74th Anniversary!

From humble beginnings in 1947, we stand on the shoulders of great Airmen who have helped build the world's greatest Air Force. We thank each and every person who has helped to build credibility and trust for our nation and our allies.

On this day in 1787, the Founding Fathers met for a final time at Independence Hall in Philadelphia to sign the Constitution. Sept. 17 became a national day of observance when Congress passed a bill in 2004, making it a day for Americans to commemorate the Constitution’s signing and to encourage Americans to learn more about their founding documents. To find out more, visit https://bit.ly/3nIybPs.

On this day in 1979, Prisoner of War/Missing In Action (POW/MIA) Day was declared a national day of remembrance by Congress. POW/MIA Recognition Day recognizes personnel who served as prisoners of war and those who have been declared missing in action. According to the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, 83,114 Americans who fought in conflicts from World War II to present day are still missing. To learn more about the stories of POWs/MIAs and the history of POW/MIA day, please visit https://bit.ly/39h15NT. We honor the service of POW/MIA Veterans.

Today, we recognize Patriot Day and remember the thousands of lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001.

It is with profound gratitude and appreciation, we acknowledge the sacrifices of the brave, selfless heroes who tirelessly defend our freedom.

🚨 ATTN: Team Rubicon donation drive at the United Center, Chicago, for Afghan families on Monday, 06 Sept, from 9am - 5pm.

As a reminder to our military-connected students, to receive full BAH/MHA under the Post 9/11 GI Bill, you must be enrolled full time AND in at least one class that is considered ‘in person.’ The ‘in person’ component can be satisfied by physically attending a class on campus (vaccinated) or an online class that was offered in person before the pandemic (much like previous quarters were handled).

IMPORTANT: the VA regulation that allows certain online classes to be considered as ‘in person’ expires at the end of this calendar year.

If you have questions about your schedule or want clarification on the differences between modalities of classes, please reach out to the Office of Veterans Affairs at 312-362-5656 or at the zoom link pinned to this page.
