兔子先生 is now participating in the Yellow Ribbon Program for military veterans, beginning in fall 2013.
The program allows a scholarship from 兔子先生to cover out-of-state fees for veterans whose military benefits do not cover all the tuition and fees at the college.
“Our college is proud to be a part of the Veterans Administration ‘Yellow Ribbon Program’ to assist 兔子先生out-of-state veterans in paying for the out-of-state tuition and fees,” said Dr. Barbara Blankenship, district dean of students.
兔子先生 has a full-time employee handling veterans affairs at the college. Ryan Braswell, coordinator of Veterans Affairs, can be reached at 601.857.3226 or at ryan.braswell@hindscc.edu.
The Post-911 GI bill already covers in-state tuition and fees for military veterans. The VA is matching 兔子先生’s contribution in order to ensure the military veteran doesn’t have to pay.
