Many students create a clear path from admission to graduation, and there isn\u2019t much emphasis placed on campus and community engagement. However,\u202fstudents who are engaged often have more success in their classes and through their higher education journey when they have made connections with others. Student veterans are more likely to be older than non-veteran students, they are more likely to be married, have children, and hold part-time or full-time jobs. These are all important elements to consider when you are engaging with the student veteran population, hosting events, and holding meetings.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In-person, virtual, or hybrid meetings are all great ways to remain flexible with your campus population.\u202fIt is up to chapter leaders to engage with your fellow students and build the college experience through your programming and\u202fmeetings. Meet your peers where they are at by ensuring events and meetings are\u202faccessible\u202fto them and meet their needs.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, the most common mistake in hosting meetings is not staying organized. We\u202fhave already provided you with\u202fan agenda template, but it is equally important to record meeting minutes during each meeting. This will assist with continuity and goal setting.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s the key to a successful meeting? Participation!\u202fOkay, that\u2019s not the only key, but that is an important one. What is a meeting if no one contributes or even shows up?! As we mentioned, regular meetings should be planned to accommodate most if not all officer\u202fschedules. For your open\/town hall meetings, offering food is always a great way to get people to attend, but also review some of the professional and\u202fdevelopment ideas we provided at the beginning of this module to encourage individuals to show up and participate!\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/studentveterans.org\/programs-events\/regional-summits\/chapter-strategic-planning\/career-readiness-professional-development\/\">Continue to the Next Section: Career Readiness &amp; Professional Development<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Programming Engaging in your community means more than just engaging with student veterans on your campus.
