Veteran Critical Theory
Not Me: Veteran Marginalization and Implicit Bias in Institutions of Higher Learning
A critical case study is an in-depth analysis of a specific instance, event, or phenomenon that is selected because it is deemed to be crucial or pivotal in understanding a particular issue or concept.
VCT combines elements of Critical Theory, Feminism Theory, Queer Theory, Border Theory, and Disability Theory with the distinctive experiences of veterans.

What questions can I answer about this research at this time?
Student Affairs Administrators
Semi-Sturctured Interviews (4-6 people)
1) How are the experiences of student veterans and administrators impacted by such marginalization? 2) How do student veterans and administrators experience university efforts – policies, procedures, and programs – to address implicit marginalization and bias? 3) What policies and programs do student veterans and administrators believe should be implemented to address this marginalization?
How do student veterans and military veteran administrators experience implicit marginalization at Institutions of Higher Learning (IHL), and how can universities examine those experiences from these populations perspectives and solicit those veterans’ help in addressing the embedded marginalization in the academy?
With the evolving role of the United States military in global conflicts, an increasing number of military veterans are transitioning from service to higher education institutions. Despite the rich diversity of their experiences and backgrounds, many student veterans frequently find themselves on the outskirts of the academic environment. Veteran inclusivity is a critical aspect of supporting military-connected students in their transition from military service to higher education. Many military-connected students, including veterans, active-duty service members, and their dependents, face unique challenges when pursuing higher education due to their military background, which can impact their sense of belonging in a university setting. Veteran critical theory, which emphasizes the social, cultural, and historical context of veterans' experiences, provides a framework for understanding the unique needs and experiences of military-connected students. This pioneering framework combines elements of Critical Theory, Feminism Theory, Queer Theory, Border Theory, and Disability Theory with the distinctive experiences of veterans. This research project delves into the intricate issue of marginalization experienced by student veterans in higher education, employing the unique perspective of Veteran Critical Theory. Through an interdisciplinary and innovative approach, this research aims to provide a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by student veterans, ultimately advocating for creating more inclusive and supportive higher education environments that honor their unique backgrounds and experiences.
