St. Norbert College named to military-friendly schools list

St. Norbert College has been selected as a G.I. Jobs Military Friendly School. The list honors

the top 20 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to

embrace America's veterans as students.

Since 1936, the St. Norbert College military science program has commissioned both active

duty and reserve component officers for our nation's defense. Over 970 college students

have graduated from St. Norbert's ROTC program. Eleven graduates have attained the rank

of general during their military careers and many others have attained the rank of colonel.

(http://www.snc.edu/militaryscience/graduates.html). Few schools offering ROTC can make

such a claim.

A full story and detailed list of Military Friendly Schools will be highlighted in the annual

Guide to Military Friendly Schools and on a poster, both of which will be distributed to

hundreds of thousands of active and former military personnel this month.

Criteria for making the Military Friendly Schools list included efforts to recruit and retain

military and veteran students, results in recruiting military and veteran students and

academic accreditations.
