Celebrating Dragon Veterans 2019 - Amy Sleath

At MSUM, we value the dedication, responsibility and leadership veterans bring to our university, both as students and as employees. We proudly honor all veterans who have served our country and recognize a few of our Dragons veterans for their commitment to serve and to protect.

Amy Sleath, Senior, Exercise Science major

Amy served as active-duty Army for 10 years as a fueler, medic and occupational therapist in Colorado, Texas and South Korea. She’s been with the North Dakota National Guard for four years. She says the best part of her service has been the experience of protecting the people of America. Military service has also helped her to narrow her passion.

“Being in the Guard opened my eyes to a whole different world of health and wellness and trying to live your best self. My service led me to work in occupational therapy, so when I was looking for a degree, exercise science was a great option,” Amy said.

Thank you to all veterans at MSUM, in our community and across the U.S. and U.S. bases for their service!
