University of South Florida president Judy Genshaft will meet with the head of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to talk about veterans issues.
Genshaft has accepted an invitation to meet with VA Secretary Robert McDonald to discuss how to accommodate veterans with mental health issues and criminal records. McDonald sent a letter to Genshaft last month asking to talk about what he called “more work to be done” on that front.
“The University of South Florida shares your commitment to the reintegration and education of our veterans,” Genshaft responded. “There is nothing more important to the university, and to me personally, than providing a path to a productive future through education while maintaining a safe environment for all of our students.”
Though their correspondence doesn’t mention him, McDonald’s interest in USF was sparked by the case of former U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Clay Allred, who was expelled from the school last year after his 2014 arrest for threatening a Tampa gas station clerk with a rifle and firing shots into the air.
