This video features veterans from the UNMC College of Dentistry.
Dear College of Dentistry Family,

This Veterans Day, we honor the members of our College of Dentistry family who have served or are serving our country.

We are proud to have veterans and service members of our Armed Forces among our faculty, staff, students and alumni who have and are defending our freedom and our way of life as Americans.

We recognize their sacrifices, as well as the sacrifices of their loved ones, and are grateful for their courage and dedication to serving our country.

Please join me in thanking our veterans, service members and their families by wearing a Veterans Day sticker and sharing your message of appreciation on the banner in the atrium.

Sincerely,
Upcoming Events
