Abstract
An instrument to measure the amount of perceived stigmatizing experiences of veterans on campus was developed, and 201 participants completed it as part of a larger study. Over half met criteria for PTSD and reported some type of stigmatizing experience. Implications of this study include the need to educate individuals in higher education on veteran culture in order to decrease negative interactions on campus, as well as provide culturally appropriate support to student veterans.
