On May 16, CSUN’s Veterans Resource Center invited family and friends of student veterans to the Northridge Center at the University Student Union to celebrate the students’ amazing achievements. Students who attended the event received special commemorative sashes, made exclusively for student veterans, to wear to their commencement ceremonies. Here are some photos from the celebration.
