“I am happy to hear the news! While we are still awaiting official confirmation with details from the Army on whether it will remain a battalion or become a detachment of Syracuse ROTC, I am optimistic the outcome will be what the university is looking for. We are currently in close communication with Clarkson.

This is a direct result of the voices of Clarkson cadets, Fort Drum advocates, community members and local leaders being heard. I’m grateful the Army took these concerns seriously, and I look forward to ensuring our region’s ROTC program is supported for years to come.”
