Leaders and student veterans from NYC-area colleges convened at Columbia University for the inaugural NYC Summit to address pressing challenges student veterans face today.
CVTI’s partnership with Penn State’s Veterans College Boot Camp demonstrates our commitment to capacity building—helping institutions develop sustainable programs while empowering student veterans to become mentors and leaders for the next generation.
Each summer, Columbia University's Center for Veteran Transition and Integration (CVTI) hosts its free Summer Seminar Series, bringing veterans, students, faculty, and community members together to explore war, military service, and the veteran experience through literature and discussion. Led by Professor Nicholas Utzig, the series fosters thoughtful dialogue and strengthens understanding between veterans and the civilian communities around them.
