The Fort Carson Education Center is revamping programs to help Soldiers transition to civilian life. New programs include College 101 courses taught by professors, expanded certificate programs, and partnerships with colleges to establish veteran centers. The education center is also working with employers interested in hiring veterans and will host a college fair on Thursday with over 35 institutions to help with the transition process.

Mountaineer Athlete of the Week
Levi Hokkala
Fitness and intramural staff member
Levi Hokkala grew up in Minnesota where the big sports are hockey
and wrestling. He got involved in wrestling at the age of 5 before getting into
other sports. He later got involved in golf, archery and basketball.
What were the main sports you were involved in growing up?
The main sports I was involved with were archery, golf and basketball.
I got into archery through my dad who was big into hunting. As I got older,
my dad was also into golf and I wanted to pick that (sport) up also.
What was your favorite moment in sports?
My favorite moment happened when I was in the ninth grade. My dad
and I competed in a national outdoor archery contest, and I won my category
and my dad finished third in his category. It was the first time we had ever
gone to a national championship event.
What was your favorite professional sports moment?
That was 1991, when Kirby Puckett climbed the fence and caught the
ball (robbing the opposition of a homerun) helping the Minnesota Twins
win the world championship.
What is the one thing that you haven’t done in sports that you would
like to do?
I would like to become a low level pro to semipro golfer. I think golf is
my best sport and, if I had the time to practice, I am convinced I would be
a low level pro golfer.
If you could meet any athlete and spend a day with them who would it be?
I would have to say Ben Hogan, the golfer. He was considered, at the
time, the best ball striker that ever lived and he won a lot of tournaments.
I would also like to play a round of golf with him.
People who don’t know me would be surprised to know that …
I am fairly outgoing once people get to know me. After you break the
shell, because I’m pretty shy when you first know me. I like to get involved
with a lot of things, especially a lot of outdoor activities.
