Veterans Day

Dear all,

This Veterans Day I am reflecting on the debt of gratitude we owe to all those who serve. We have inspiring veterans throughout campus, including students, faculty, administrators, and staff.

One such veteran is Britt Andrade ’24, who is the president of the Vassar Veterans Association. Britt was in the army and has a sibling who is currently serving, which she shares in the Misc. In a video up on Vassar social channels today, Britt gives us advice on how to best honor veterans for their service: “Go out and help somebody. That’s what you have to do to make what we’ve done worthwhile.”

Let’s each take this advice to heart and do what we can to help those around us in honor of people who have served, are serving now, and will serve in the future.

Happy Veterans Day.
