The Collin College Frisco Campus will honor students, faculty, and staff military veterans with a weeklong commemoration from Nov. 11-15.

Community members are welcome to attend several Veterans Week events at the campus, located at 9700 Wade Blvd. 在弗里斯科。 There are multiple activities planned, and the following events are open to the public:

• 一战移动博物馆 – Throughout the week, community members can stop by the campus’s J Building to check out this museum. Collin College was selected to host the traveling museum, which was recently on display to thousands of visitors at the War Memorial in Washington, D.C. The free museum features interactive and educational displays that will provide visitors with unique opportunities to learn about history as it unfolded and how it still affects the world 今天。 Executive Director Keith Colley will be onsite daily to provide guided presentations.
• 无名战士之墓的演讲 -旧金山校区将举办前陆军哨兵Gregory Hooper的演讲。 As a sentinel, Hooper’s sole military duty consisted of guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a site at the Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia near our nation’s capital that is guarded 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Hooper will convey a story rich in history and patriotism through words, images, and music.
• 荣誉墙摄影展示 – Created by the college’s art professors, the Wall of Honor will showcase images of student, faculty, and staff military veterans who are now members of the college community. 展览将设在旧金山校园图书馆的一楼。
• 食物捐赠活动 – The Frisco Campus is partnering with Blue Star Mothers to collect donations for active military members deployed overseas. Collection containers can be found in the first-floor areas of campus buildings during Veterans Week.
