The Wright State Veteran and Military Alumni Society has had a busy second quarter for 2021. We are excited to review what we have accomplished in Q2 while also sharing what we have coming up for the rest of 2021. Our plans continually develop throughout the year so make sure to stay updated through our social channels @WrightStateVMAS and come back to our site regularly.
Welcoming the Newest Class of Alumni
On April 17th, 2021 we hosted an event with the Veteran & Military Center to welcome the newest class of Vet/ Mil graduates to the Alumni community. This was the first of what will become a regularly occurring event with each graduating class. We met new alumni, got to know them and their needs, passed along the VMC Graduation Stole, and shared a little bit about VMAS. Learn more about our event, see pictures, and watch a video put together by Veterans Voices here.
Member Highlight | Paul Fleischman
As Chair of the Finance and Fundraising Committee, Paul’s goal is to assist VMAS with identifying fundraising opportunities to support our objectives.
“Both the military and Wright State played such a big part in my life and they have both helped me succeed in so many ways, so I want to be able to help others succeed.”
