Military veterans: Creative counseling with student veterans

, , , &
 

Abstract

Student veterans represent a unique population on college campuses. Not only are they transitioning back to civilian life but also into a new role as college student. This paper describes the attempts of one university to aid in that transition through the means of expressive arts. A detailed description of the Paper Peace and glass pouring workshops and accompanying pictures is provided in this paper. In addition, reflections on the workshops and plans for future workshops are described.

Acknowledgments

The authors would like to thank the many individuals who were involved in making the expressive arts workshop a resounding success. Thank you to the participating student veterans, the FSU Student Veteran's Center, the FSU President's and Provost's Office, the Master Craftsman Studio, the Peace Paper Project, FSU Art Education Department, and Strozier Library, for their support.
