Garrett Holbrook, President, Associated Students of the University of Idaho
MISSION & VISION
The University of Idaho wishes to honor and assist United States military personnel who have sustained severe and permanent injury while serving our nation since September 11, 2001, by providing the opportunity to attain a college degree. Our vision is to create a high quality, caring, learning environment and a sense of community for returning veterans and/or their spouses. We desire to promote their success in the classroom, on campus, in the community and ultimately, in society, by completing a degree program of their choice.
Veterans’ spouses may apply jointly or individually for the Operation Education Scholarship. Support of wounded veterans’ families is a value strongly held by the University of Idaho community.
In addition, the University of Idaho intends to create blueprint of the program that other institutions of higher learning may utilize. It is our desire that our pilot program creates interest and stimulates similar action among other colleges and universities, so that many veterans may take advantage of this opportunity to further their education.
