A new survey has found that higher education is failing U.S. military veterans despite expansions to the GI Bill, but some institutions are doing a better job than others. According to a Gallup-Purdue survey, less than a third of college graduates who had served in the military said that their university catered to their needs. Higher education enrollment for military veterans surged after the expansion of the Serviceman's Readjustment Act of 1944 and again with the enactment of the Post-9/11 GI Bill version in 2008. A report on the survey is available on the Gallup-Purdue website.
