Community: Learning Together with Your Peers

The MVC provides a hub for study, camaraderie and comfort. It's a place for student-veterans and family members to read, work, use public computers and other resources and enjoy the company of their like-minded peers.

“ Without the connections of the MVC community, I wouldn't have lasted a week. ”
