Over two years ago the @QueensChronicle told the story of how students #veterans were being treated at @LaGuardiaCC. Since then @GailOMellow and others including @ffiore537 have left but both Stephen Clark and Darryl Griffin continue work at the college. #NoVetsLAGCC
Happy 250th, America!
Celebrating 250 years of independence and the enduring ideals of liberty, opportunity, and justice that shape our nation.
Since our nation's founding, Marines have upheld these ideals around the world, serving with honor, courage, and commitment.
Today, we honor the freedom they defend and the nation we’re proud to serve.

As we celebrate the @nyknicks championship at the Canyon of Heroes tmrw, I’ll also be thinking abt the canceled parade for post-9/11 #veterans. In my latest piece, I explore why civic rituals matter & what it says when some are celebrated & others are not: https://t.co/KjQXX3MY3F
All Gave Some, Some Gave All
Today, we honor and remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice wearing the uniform while defending our rights, freedoms and our great nation.
We will always remember and uphold their legacy.

The best college for veteran students is not always the highest-ranked school—it’s often the one that best fits the realities of your unique life.

Today, we recognize the strength of the mothers who raised our courageous warriors, as well as the mothers who wear the Marine uniform themselves.
Wishing a very Happy Mother's Day to every mother of a Marine and all moms in uniform, past and present!

Today we take a moment to honor the legacy of nearly 500,000 Marines who served during the Vietnam War.
When Marines landed in Vietnam in 1965, their courage was tested in some of the most storied battles and operations in Marine Corps history—including Operation Starlite, Operation Hastings, Khe Sanh, Hue City, and Operation Dewey Canyon.
Their service in the jungles and cities of Vietnam would help reshape the Marine Corps’ approach to warfighting and cement their contributions to the Corps’ history.
