Higher Education Veterans Services Act

Services and Programs for Veterans, Military Personnel, and their Families at Public Colleges and Universities

The state of Illinois recently passed the Higher Education Veterans Service Act. (P.A. 96-0133) The act requires all public colleges and universities to conduct a survey of the services and programs that are provided for veterans, active duty military personnel, and their families. This survey shall enumerate and fully describe the service or program that is available, the number of veterans or active duty personnel using the service or program, an estimated range for potential use within a 5-year and 10-year period, information on the location of the service or program, and how its administrators may be contacted. Each public college and university, along with the Illinois Board of Higher Education, Illinois Community College Board, and Department of Veterans Affairs, shall make the survey available on their homepage.
