As we step into the weekend before Memorial Day, we take a moment to honor the brave souls who gave their last breath for our nation and its people.

Few words can express the depth of gratitude the Office of Military & Veterans Services has for those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and few words can comfort the families and friends left behind, but we're reminded that our freedom's fabric is woven with the threads of their selflessness. ❤️

May their legacy inspire us to strive for a brighter tomorrow! 💫

As we wrap up the final week of on-campus courses and head into finals, the Office of Military & Veterans Services wants to express heartfelt gratitude to our incredible Military Connected Community for an unforgettable year! 🙏️💪️

To our graduating students, congratulations on this monumental achievement! May the knowledge and skills you've gained propel you forward, and may your future be filled with endless possibilities. 🎓

For those returning in Fall 2026, we can't wait to welcome you back to campus in August and ensure a smooth transition into the new semester. 📚

And to those pursuing new paths or serving abroad, know that our support remains unwavering, no matter where life takes you. 🌎

Lastly, to our entire Military Connected Community, remember that you're never alone - we're here to help, always. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything! 🤝

May is a powerful reminder of the bravery and resilience of our military heroes and their families! As we celebrate Military Appreciation Month, we're also shining a light on Mental Health Awareness Month. Both are close to our hearts, and we're committed to supporting our military community in the classroom and beyond. 🌟

We believe in the strength of those who serve and their loved ones, and we're dedicated to helping anyone struggling with mental health find a path forward. If you or someone you know is in crisis, remember that hope is just a call away: the 988 Crisis Line or local resources are here to help. 💕

Thank you to everyone who came out to Stampfl Field on Thursday. The weather held out and the Edgewood University Eagle Baseball Team were able to pull out a decisive win in 7 innings, 13 - 3.

If anyone was not able to pick up their commemorative hoodie, or if you would still like to order one, please reach out to Coach Brisack or the Office of Military & Veterans Services ([email protected]).

As of this moment, we are a 'go' for the Miilitary & Veterans Appreciation Game at Stampfl Field in Verona.

The game will begin around 4 pm, after the National Anthem and the ceremonial first pitch!

We are sad to announce that the weather from last night has made the field unplayable, so today's Military & Veteran Appreciation Game has been moved to Thursday, with the first game starting at 1500.

We apologize for any inconvenience, as we know this will disrupt some of your plans, but hope that you can make it out on Thursday!
