The University of Missouri hosted a number of events during Veterans Week, Nov. 10-14.

Among them were the Military Resource Fair, a blood drive, a School of Law symposium on legal aid to veterans, and a lecture on PTSD and military sexual trauma.

As part of the Veterans Day ceremonies Nov. 11 at Memorial Union tower, a roll call was recited of Missouri soldiers who died abroad in 21st-century wars. The week began with Columbia’s Veterans Day Parade Nov. 9.
