U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Deputy Secretary Paul R. Lawrence visited Florida State University’s campus Tuesday, June 24, for a roundtable discussion with FSU, Florida A&M University and Tallahassee State College student veterans and those who work to support them.

The discussion was held in FSU’s Harpe-Johnson ROTC Building and focused on VA education benefits, with the Deputy Secretary seeking input from attendees about what is working well in addition to identifying potential areas of improvement for all involved.

“One of the best benefits from being in the military is the G.I. Bill — free college education if you serve for three years honorably,” Lawrence said. “But of course, it has to be a great experience. What I was impressed with was how granular and detailed the students’ feedback was and how really operational it was — things that we could go and do right away to make the experience better.”
