Area community colleges recognized for being veteran friendly
Three area community colleges have been recognized by G.I.Jobs.com as being among those doing the most to embrace America’s veterans as students — Kalamazoo Valley Community College, Kellogg Community College in Battle Creek, and Lake Michigan College in Benton Harbor.
The site’s recent list honors the top 20 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools which prioritize the recruitment of students with military experience. The list comes from extensive research and a data-driven survey of more than 8,000 schools nationwide.
Excerpt:
The Military Friendly Schools list is determined through exhaustive research by the G.I. Jobs Military Friendly Schools team. This research includes government agencies and private entities which administer education benefits and a comprehensive survey administered by G.I. Jobs. A Military Friendly Schools Academic Advisory Panel, consisting of five higher education administrators, helps determine survey questions and weighting.
