For the 16th consecutive year, Columbia GS was proud to be a major sponsor of the New York City Veterans Day Parade. On Monday, November 11, GS student veterans, including the U.S. Military Veterans of Columbia University (Milvets), Dean Lisa Rosen-Metsch '90GS, friends, family, and GS administration joined the Veterans Day celebration as the GS float rode 20 blocks down Fifth Avenue.
At the annual Columbia University Military Ball last Friday, Interim President Katrina Armstrong was in attendance to thank the Columbia military community for their contributions to University life. “The experiences you have had, the talents you have acquired, and the values you live align so deeply with what we believe in, with what this institution shall and must stand for: dedicated to diversity of thought and background, to creativity and perseverance, and to community and a commitment to others,” she said. “Thank you for being part of this community.”
