On Nov. 11, ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Community College will host 'Honoring Our Veterans,' a special Veterans Day edition of our History Lecture Series in the ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Auditorium.

In celebration of Veterans Day, ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Community College invites the community to attend the next event in its History Lecture Series, honoring the service and sacrifice of our nation’s heroes. 

Join us Tuesday, Nov. 11, as we welcome a panel of local veterans who will share personal stories from their time in the armed services. This program is free and open to the community.

This Honoring Our Veterans program will highlight the courage, dedication, and resilience of men and women from St. Bernard Parish and the surrounding region who have served in defense of our country. Through this engaging conversation, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the experiences that shaped our veterans’ lives and their ongoing contributions to our community.

Doors open to the ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Auditorium at 6:30 p.m. for an opening reception with refreshments. The program will take place from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m., followed by a laser light show finale projected on the outside wall of the ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog Auditorium until 8:15 p.m.

On Veterans Day morning, ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog will also host its annual Pinning Ceremony, honoring all ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog students, faculty and staff who have served in the armed forces. The Pinning Ceremony will take place from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the Black Box Theater located in the Fine Arts Building on the ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog campus. This program is also open to the community and will feature refreshments.

All former ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog students, faculty and staff are encouraged to participate in the Pinning Ceremony. To participate, please contact ÌÇÐ͝Âþvlog LAVETCORPS Navigator Laura Lancon at [email protected] or 504-278-6426.
