The American Studies Institute (ASI) will host Breakfast with a Veteran at 7:30 a.m. Friday, Nov. 10 in Cone Chapel in the David B. Burks American Heritage Building on Harding’s campus. All veterans are invited to attend and will be provided with a complimentary breakfast for themselves and a guest.

According to Austin Yates, ASI member and past president, the campus organization began hosting the annual breakfast event in 2015 as a way to connect students and local veterans. Attending veterans can expect an informal atmosphere to share in food and conversation with students, members of the community and fellow veterans. “I have no doubt both students and veterans will leave with a full heart — and a full stomach.”

“It is amazing to meet so many of the veterans that live in Searcy and White County,” said Kim Kirkman, executive director of ASI. “I enjoy hearing their stories of their experiences. I get a personal connection to our American history that cannot be read from a book. It is nice to have time to honor these men and women who have served our country so well.”
