Memorial day is a time to reflect and honor the lives of fallen American soldiers. There’s no comprehending what a family or friend goes through during a time of tragedy. Whether you understand what someone is going through when the death of a loved one occurs, it’s always good to show support by just being there. 
 
The Military and Veterans Programs at Texas Tech takes great pride in the fact that it currently has more than 1300 students attending this University that are veterans or are dependents of veterans. It also has more than 350 faculty and staff that have also served and the number one priority is you earning your degree as a veteran at Texas Tech. If you have any questions, concerns, and/or constructive criticism please let them know at (806) 742-6877, or stop by Drane Hall Room 147 on Texas Tech’s campus. 
 
Thank you for your service and your dedication to our country during its time of need. Be proud of who you are, be proud of what you do, be proud of what you continue to do. You served our country so well. It’s their turn to serve you.
