What is BEAVS?
BEAVS is a vibrant community of Oregon State University staff and faculty members with shared experiences as veterans. Whether you’re newly connected to OSU or have been part of the community for years, BEAVS offers an opportunity to connect with colleagues, share resources, and support one another.

At BEAVS, we focus on:

• Community: Building a strong network through social gatherings, mentoring, and collaboration.
• Education: Sharing knowledge about the benefits and services available to veterans, their families, and the broader OSU community.
• Engagement: Supporting diversity, inclusivity, and learning across the university.
• Respect: Honoring the unique experiences and perspectives of every member.
• Awareness: Creating a safe and welcoming environment for all.

This gathering is a chance to learn more about BEAVS, meet fellow OSU veteran staff and faculty members, and discover how we can support each other professionally and personally.
We hope you’ll join us! Your voice, experiences, and ideas are invaluable to our mission.
