Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement
Our U-LEAD group collaborated with Mr. Michael Kepner, UCF’s Director of Military and Veteran’s Student Success (MVSS). The mission of the MVSS is to create an enriching and inclusive environment for military-affiliated students to achieve educational and career goals through academic success and community partnerships. In keeping with its mission, MVSS places miniature U.S. flags on campus every year since 2013. The number of flags on display corresponds to the military/veteran students attending UCF in Fall—1,400 flags were planted in 2022. This helps military-affiliated students through best practices, policies, and culture.
Additional Resources
We thank UCF MVSS, Mr. Kepner, and UCF U-LEAD for their support and dedication during this opportunity. Also, we would also like to thank the UCF veteran student population and the active, reserve, and military/veteran community for their service and sacrifice.
