Veteran Appreciation Week

Join us for Veterans Appreciation Week as we honor and celebrate the brave individuals who have served our country. From November 4-15, the Oklahoma State University community will come together for a series of meaningful events recognizing the sacrifices and contributions of our military-affiliated students, faculty, staff, alumni, families, and community members.

Whether you can participate in an event, volunteer for a few hours, or simply visit the display on Library Lawn, your involvement helps make this week impactful and memorable. We hope you will join us in expressing gratitude to those who have served.

Thank you for our sponosor, Folds of Honor.
