From service member to student

Transitioning from the military to the classroom may not always be a seamless process for student veterans across the country. In this story, two veterans talk about their transitional frustrations and stress the importance of having schools work closely with student vets. to work through paperwork problems and other issues, including emotional, physical and mental problems. This collaboration between veterans and schools is especially critical as a new GI bill becomes effective this fall. Under the new law, about 100,000 more veterans are expected to enroll in school in the next three years.
