New Veterans Center opens at Evergreen.

The opening of Evergreen’s new Veterans Resource Center this month coincided nicely with the release of U.S. News and World Report’s “Best Colleges for Veterans” list that ranked Evergreen in the top ten.

“The new Veterans Resource Center is a one-stop shop for vets, where they can get advice about education and other benefits, and get help with academic, financial, medical or personal issues,” center director Randy Kelley said.

Kelley, a retired Navy commander with years of experience working with veterans around the U.S., sees Evergreen as a strong fit for returning military eager to make use of their earned benefits.
