Events

Hosted by NC State, this conference offers a multi track system of enriched, informative, and relevant breakout sessions that are tailored to three main audiences; student veterans, higher education staff and faculty, and community professionals who have a primary touch point with military service members, veterans or their families. The conference will also host two student panels, a variety of exhibitors, and offer several special topic poster presentations. Registration deadline is May 31.

In this presentation, accompanied by spectacular imagery, zoo and wildlife veterinarians Lucy Spelman (art school professor) and Rick Linnehan (astronaut) describe how they have pushed past traditional professional boundaries to help make the planet a better place. Their stories show us that collaboration, compassion, and creativity are an important part of scientific work. The event is free and open to the public; no registration is required.
