Excerpt from WDTN

Wright State has been upgraded from bronze to silver in its status as a military-friendly university.

The Military Friendly designation is sponsored by Viqtory Media.

It was also named as a Collegiate Purple Star campus in 2022.

Some of its success is largely due to the Veteran and Military Center on campus supporting student veterans and service members.

“We have minimally about 300 plus veterans on campus,” describes Dr. Seth Gordon, Director of the Veteran and Military Center, which started in 2013.

Zach Collett is one of them.

“I was in the Army way back in 2002 to 2010, active duty at Fort Bragg,” describes Collett.
