Veterans Day

November 11, 2024

Dear all,

Happy Veterans Day!

John and I started the day with breakfast for Vassar Veterans at the President’s House. They are an inspiring group, and we are so fortunate to have students, faculty, administrators, staff, and alums who have served our nation.

I heard that this weekend some of the veterans went to Lutheran Care Center to connect with and care for the residents—many of whom are also veterans.

Let us reflect on and embrace the ethos of service that veterans embody. As we acknowledge the divisiveness of this moment in history, we cherish a commitment to service that can unify, strengthen, and sustain our communities.
