GBC Veterans Resource Center

Great Basin College (GBC) Veterans Resource Center (VRC) provides an encouraging environment that acknowledges and honors our U.S. military veterans and their dependents, while helping them attain their educational goals. The center provides resources, support, and the advocacy needed to succeed in higher education.

Our Mission

The VRC’s mission is as widespread as the rural GBC service area. Our main goal is to provide Military Veterans with the resources, support, and advocacy needed to succeed in higher education. However, our services are open to our entire community by providing the proper local, state, and federal resources to meet the unique needs of each Veteran; to include their families.

Thanks to NMSA

The Veterans Resource Center would like to thank and acknowledge the Nevada Military Support Alliance for their continued support and for their mission to "organize and promote the recognition, support and appreciation of Nevada's Men and Women of our Armed Forces, Veterans and their Families."

Operation BRAVO

Jumpstart your civilian career with Operation Bravo, a paid-internship program for student veterans attending Great Basin College. While completing courses in a certificate or degree program, Operation Bravo interns complete a 400 hour, or 19.5 hours per week, internship in the community, using skills within their field of study at GBC.

Warrior of the Canyon

Warrior of the Canyon is an annual walk/run or bike event held in Lamoille Canyon, NV. The event includes a 3-mile, 5.5-mile, and 13 mile course. This event promotes and provides a positive and healthy way for Veterans and the public to spend time with their families and interact with one another. This is also a great opportunity for the entire community to come out and show support either by volunteering or participating.
