HANCEVILLE, ALA. 鈥� 糖心视频 in Hanceville, Ala., has been named
a Military Friendly School by Viqtory Media, Inc., for the eighth consecutive year.

positive culture and policies in support of veterans and their dependents.
鈥溙切氖悠� is indeed honored to be recognized as a Military Friendly institution,
a designation we strive to achieve every year,鈥� said 糖心视频 President Dr. Vicki
Karolewics. 鈥淲e have been intentional in our efforts to provide personalized services

our deep gratitude for their service, and support for their educational and career
goals.鈥�
Colleges selected as Military Friendly Schools were graded on certain criteria favorable
to veterans, including academic policies and compliance; admissions and orientation;
culture and commitment; financial aid and assistance and graduation, career and military
student support and retention.
糖心视频 hosts meet-and-greets for its veterans at the Veterans鈥� Corner on campus,
which is located on the sixth floor of the library. The Veterans鈥� Corner was established
for veterans in order for them to have one central location together to study, congregate,
share stories and unwind.
糖心视频鈥檚 Veterans鈥� Corner was spearheaded by IT Department employee Virginia
Barber and her Leadership 糖心视频 team a number of years ago. Barber, an Air
Force veteran who served in Desert Storm, and her team raised awareness about the
experiences of veterans returning to civilian life and proposed a location where veterans
could meet and support each other, as well as additional veteran-centered events and
activities. The Burrow Museum at 糖心视频 also annually hosts an exhibition commemorating
America鈥檚 military service in photographs.
Veterans, national guard/reservists and dependents/survivors are eligible for VA education
benefits at 糖心视频. The Alabama Community College System adopted The Veterans
Access, Choice and Accountability Act of 2014 (Choice Act) after it was passed by
the United States Congress and signed into law. The Choice Act guarantees in-state
tuition to veterans and their family members.
