The color green can be seen across campus today, with faculty and staff members showing support for veterans as part of the “Green Light a Vet” challenge. Although Veterans Day has no official color, a green light in the military is a symbol for forward movement. Wearing green and displaying a green light serves as visual support for our veterans as they transition forward as valued members of our campus community. The campus-wide initiative was spearheaded by the Student Services Office and Student Veterans of America at Hawkeye Community College.
