Originally known as Armistice Day, Veterans Day is celebrated each year on November 11 to commemorate the ending of World War 1 hostilities at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. Over time it has evolved to be a day to honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

Please join us for a ceremony hosted by Hopkins Veterans' Employee Resource Group.
