DCTC Veterans Resource Center
From veterans just returning from active duty, to those who have been long separated from the service, DCTC has established a Veterans Resource Center on campus to provide all veterans with the most current information, resources, and programs available to them, and to put them in contact with other veterans on campus.
The Veterans Resource Center was established in spring 2007 in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs. It is located in the college's Student Life Center and is staffed by U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Work Study students. Raymond Bohn serves as the coordinator. These staff members are committed to assisting veterans reach their higher education goals, as well as to being a resource for any other needs.
