华盛顿美国天主教大学获教育部近62.7万美元资助：设退伍军人服务单一窗口，全美今年仅5笔同类资助
华盛顿报道 — 美国天主教大学（The Catholic University of America）11月11日发布，该校军事与退伍军人学生服务办公室近日获得美国教育部退伍军人学生成功卓越中心（CEVSS）近62.7万美元资助，为今年全美仅有的5笔同类资助之一。
据发布，资助将用于设立新计划「红雀军团计划」（Cardinal Corps Project），把协调退伍军人服务的单一联络点建成可供推广的校园示范项目，该计划在资助期结束后将自筹维持。该办公室主任凯文·赖利（Kevin Riley）为海军退伍军人，他表示退伍军人学生面临独特挑战，亦格外坚韧，从以作战任务为导向的严格环境回到校园会出现文化冲击，新计划旨在帮助他们过渡与适应。
发布称，该办公室为该校军人相关学生的中心联络点，服务对象包括预备役军官训练团学员、现役军人、退伍军人与军人亲属；新计划下的服务包括个别化职业咨询、学业辅导、与该校逾700名军人与退伍军人校友的网络对接、组建退伍军人学生组织与社区建设活动。发布同时称，《军事时报》（Military Times）再次把该校列入2026年「最适合退伍军人的大学」排名，该校并为「黄丝带计划」学校。该校成立于1887年，现有本科生与研究生逾5500人，设12个学院与31个研究设施。
Catholic University of America in Washington Wins Nearly $627,000 Education Department Grant for a Veteran Services Model Program, One of Only Five Nationally This Year
WASHINGTON — The Catholic University of America announced on November 11 that its Office of Military and Veteran Student Services recently received a nearly $627,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Center of Excellence for Veteran Student Success (CEVSS), one of only five grants awarded nationally this year.
The grant will be used to develop the Cardinal Corps Project, a model campus program creating a single point of contact for coordinating veteran services, which will be self sustaining after the grant period. Kevin Riley, director of the office and a Navy veteran, said veteran students face unique challenges and are uniquely resilient, and that moving from a regimented, warfighting-oriented environment back to school can be a culture shock; the new program aims to ease that transition.
The office serves as the university's central point of contact for military-affiliated students, including ROTC, active military, veterans and military dependents. Planned services include individualized career counseling, academic advising, connections with the university's network of more than 700 military and veteran alumni, a veteran student organization and community-building events. The release also notes that Military Times again named the university to its 2026 Best for Vets rankings and that the school is a Yellow Ribbon school. Founded in 1887, the university enrolls more than 5,500 undergraduate and graduate students across 12 schools and colleges and 31 research facilities.
