Resources for Veterans and Dependents
Part of the Tarleton Family:
If you walk across our campus, look around at our landmarks, and you'll realize that veterans and their military families have always been part of the Tarleton family. Historical photos and articles about our military students, faculty and staff date back at least as far as 1904. We have watched our service men and women go to war ever since World War I. We also watched our Military Marching Band bring Tarleton pride and spirit through tough times.
As part of the Tarleton family, we offer you resources found both on and off our campus. Please do not hesitate to ask us to serve you as you have served us.
