College of Southern Idaho Veterans Club

[04/17/13]   Veterans Club,
I would like to inform you that I will no longer be the club advisor after this semester. I have been accepted to medical school and will be pursuing my interests there. I would like to express how amazing each and everyone of you are and I am sad to leave. I hope you will all continue to participate in this club and really take as much as you can out of it. I am thankful to have worked with all of you and help get this club going. Thank you for your service and good luck on your future endeavors. We are currently looking for another faculty member to take on the role of club advisor. We will keep you updated once everything is finalized.
