Saluting the Penn College military family, Veterans Week featured a range of events, including a brunch, bingo, informational displays and a national honor society induction ceremony.

Students, faculty and staff who have served (or continue to serve) their country were also recognized in a voluntary roster.

With the ranking of No. 1 school for veteran students in U.S. News & World Report's 2025 Best Colleges’ Regional College (North) classification, Penn College and its veterans have a lot to celebrate.
