Nicholas Quinzi is a problem-solver. When he enrolled at Sacred Heart University only to find there was no organization to support student veterans like himself, he started one by personally approaching students on campus to ask if they were also veterans. The result was the school’s first ever veterans service organization and a veterans resource center located on campus. When he struggled to rent an apartment because he couldn’t prove to landlords he was receiving a basic housing allowance — more than $3,000 a month — from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to pay for rent and basic utilities as a full-time student veteran, Quinzi, 33, picked up a full-time job at Lowe’s.
