What's Happening
The UNLV Rebel Vets Organization teamed up with Truckee Meadows Community College to execute the first statewide Operation Battle Born Ruck March in honor of the fallen heroes from the Global War on Terrorism. Over the course of 8 days, veterans and volunteers marched 370 miles while taking turns carrying two rucksacks held a combined total of 7,000 service member dog tags, including the 57 fallen Nevadans.
A compilation of media coverage profiling just a few of the many people of UNLV who made news in 2017.
For veteran Randy Dexter, man's best friend —and a campus organization — made all the difference.
The Military & Veteran Services Center and the Disability Resource Center are helping ensure student success.
