Abstract

The following is an abridgment of a research assessment conducted for Cascadia Community College (CCC) in the spring of 2012 as part of an independent study for the Master’s program in Student Development Administration at Seattle University. This project was developed to investigate ways for CCC to better serve its veteran student population. Independent research was conducted using journal articles, visits to local and similarly situated community colleges, and interviews with individuals in the field of veteran support services. The following assessment highlights what CCC does well to serve student veterans and provides suggestions for improving support for this population. Assessment and research are important aspects to all student services; for veterans, assessment and research are particularly significant due to their unique needs which require intentional support from faculty, staff, and the institution as a whole.
