November 10th, 2014 by Mike Vasilinda
The research from “The Greatest Generation,” the book on WWII heroes was given to Florida State University by anchor and writer Tom Brokaw. Since then, the University has been billing itself as the most veterans friendly university in America. Today, on his first day on the job, new FSU President John Thrasher said he would continue the commitment to veterans “You know, I’m a veteran. I served in the United States Army. I served in Vietnam, I think our veterans are incredibly important to us, and I think at Florida State we truly want to make sure we are the most veteran friendly university in the county. I think we’re taking great steps and making great strides in doing that” says thrasher.
One incentive for veterans is that no matter where their legal residence is located, if they live in Florida they pay in state tuition rates.
