History of the Veterans Resource Center
![The Veterans Resource Center (aka The Bunker)]( "The Veterans Resource Center (aka The Bunker)")
The Veteran’s Resource Center, “The Bunker,” located on the MassBay main campus, was a vision of MassBay Veteran students. With the support of club advisors, and backing by college executives the once empty space was dedicated in 2011 to serve as a space for our student veterans. Making the Veterans resource center a reality would not have been possible with the advocacy and effort displayed by the founders of the Veterans Club.
Additional information regarding the dedication is displayed in the Veteran’s Resource Center.
The Veterans Resource Center is a peaceful place where Veterans can find tranquility, complete college assignments, hold meetings, network, and continue the camaraderie they experienced while in the service.
The “Bunker” today
Over the years, the Veterans Resource Center has continued to provide the kind of atmosphere that the founding members intended. Care has gone into maintaining this space for the Veteran students and accessibility to the “Bunker” has been improved to include accessibility to wheelchair users.
