In May 2023, Nicolet College was honored to host The Wall That Heals, a three-quarter-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. 

In appreciation of our role as a host site, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund gifted Nicolet College a retired wall panel, which will now be permanently displayed on campus. 

We invite you to attend a brief ceremony to dedicate and commemorate this meaningful gift. 

The Northwoods Honor Guard will perform a 21-gun salute. Light refreshments will be served.
