My suggestion is you read the whole article:

“For Veterans, Unmet Goals”

Some snippets:

“ORLANDO -- The disparity between college administrators' desire to help student veterans succeed and their ability to do that is becoming more apparent as the issue gains increased attention”

“Three out of four institutions have either an office or staff member focused exclusively on active duty military and student veteran affairs, according to the NASPA survey, yet only one in four report having "a detailed understanding of the root causes" of those students' withdrawing or dropping out”.
(http://www.insidehighered.com/news/2013/03/20/college-leaders-reflect-gap-between-desire-and-action-serving-student-veterans).

So the questions are, what can we do, what is being done, and do we have eyes on this?
