This November, the Office of Civic and Cultural Engagement is honoring CSN faculty and staff who’ve proudly served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
From the classroom to the frontlines, Coyotes who’ve worn the uniform embody courage, commitment, and service — values that continue to shape our college community today.
To recognize these individuals during Veterans Month, the Office of Civic and Cultural Engagement is inviting faculty and staff veterans to submit a headshot and short note about their service. Submissions will be featured throughout November as part of CSN’s Veterans Day celebrations.
“This is about celebrating the people behind the titles, the educators, advisors, and staff members who’ve served,” said Gersom Abiva, from the Office of Civic and Cultural Engagement. “We want to show our appreciation and let our students see the incredible stories right here at CSN.”
Participation is completely voluntary, and you can share as much or as little as you’d like — whether that’s your branch, years of service, or just your name and photo. We’ll take it from there and make sure your story gets the spotlight it deserves throughout November.
In addition to the recognition campaign, the CSN Military & Veterans Alliance (MVA) invites all faculty and staff veterans and active-duty service members to stop by The Den for a special token of appreciation.
🗓 Date: Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2025
🕘 Time: 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.
📍 Where: The Den @ WCU 121, NLVU 121, and HNU 121
The MVA team will be on-site with small gifts and big gratitude, honoring those whose service and sacrifice have strengthened both our nation and our CSN community.
This recognition is open to CSN faculty and staff who have served or are currently serving in the U.S. Armed Forces, including:
Air Force
Army
Coast Guard
Marine Corps
Navy
Space Force
If you’ve served, we’d be honored to feature you. Thank you for your service—and for continuing to make a difference every day at CSN.
