Our analysis The nomination of veteran experts to the US Department of Education's rulemaking committee on higher education accreditation highlights the critical stake veterans have in ensuring that accredited schools provide quality education. The Education Department's dissatisfaction with accrediting organizations, which have failed to hold institutions accountable for poor student outcomes, is particularly concerning for veterans who rely on federal financial aid, including the GI Bill. The inclusion of veteran representatives on the committee, such as Julie Howell and Steven Betsch, brings direct experience in education policy and familiarity with federal education benefits to the table. As the committee shapes federal regulations on accreditation, its decisions will have significant implications for the US Department of Veterans Affairs and other agencies, ultimately affecting the education benefits and opportunities available to veterans. The committee's work will be closely watched by veterans organizations and the broader higher education community.
