Hello Stacy, Here is a link to the University of New Mexico policy on military withdrawal for students (and I will point out that it is in our student handbook which is not under the purview of our office): http://pathfinder.unm.edu/campus-policies/policy-on-military-withdrawal.html
We also have an on-campus Veterans Resource Center, which may have helpful information for you on their website: http://vrc.unm.edu/ Within our office, we also have an administrative policy on military leave for staff, which is somewhat related and was revised a few years ago with our Veterans' office: http://policy.unm.edu/university-policies/3000/3425.html Welcome to ACUPA!

I’ve recently been tasked with looking for the best practices of University policy in relation to military affiliated students. I know that’s a broad net to cast, it’s a multi-faceted topic. I’m most interested in the areas of policies around military/veterans affairs on campus, communication and support of the military community, and change management within the university organization to help this student population. And anything else you think is related and interesting. ☺ This is my first request for assistance from the ACUPA community and I’m so thankful I found you and joined in September. I can’t wait to meet you at the conference next year! Stacy Nykorchuk Program Manager Apollo Education Group, Inc. | Apollo Ethics and Compliance Department 4025 S.
