Commitment to Supporting and Hiring Veterans

Syracuse
University has a long history of engaging veterans and the military-connected community through its educational programs, community
outreach, and employment programs. After World War II, Syracuse University welcomed more than 10,000 returning veterans to our campus, and
those veterans literally transformed Syracuse University into the national research institution it is today. The University’s contemporary
commitment to veterans builds on this historical legacy, and extends to both class-leading initiatives focused on making an SU degree
accessible and affordable to the post-9/11 generation of veterans, and also programs designed to position Syracuse University as the
employer of choice for military veterans, members of the Guard and Reserve, and military family members.

Commitment to a

faculty, administrators, staff, curriculum, social activities, governance, and all other aspects of campus life reflect a diverse,
multi-cultural, and international worldview. The University community recognizes and values the many similarities and differences among
individuals and groups. At Syracuse, we are committed to preparing students to understand, live among, appreciate, and work in an inherently
diverse country and world made up of people with different ethnic and racial backgrounds, military backgrounds, religious beliefs,
socio-economic status, cultural traditions, abilities, sexual orientations and gender identities. To do so, we commit ourselves to promoting
a community that celebrates and models the principles of diversity and inclusivity.
