Veterans Day Breakfast and Heroes Run

The Office of Military Affairs hosted the first-ever Veterans Day Breakfast. The event was a huge success, with all student veterans invited to the ceremony. The office also delivered 34 handwritten invitations to veteran faculty and staff members, inviting them to be a part of the festivities. The Office of Military Affairs also presented each faculty and staff veteran member with a pin to wear for Veteran’s Week, identifying their veteran status for students.

The Travis Manion Foundation Heroes Run in September hosted 225 participants on campus, with 10 virtual participants. The Heroes Run began in 2008 to honor the nation’s first responders who were lost on 9/11 and the veterans who have served in wars since. A&M-San Antonio looks forward to hosting the Travis Manion Foundation again next year.
