This Memorial Day, we honor and remember the courageous men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation. Their sacrifice reminds us that freedom is never free.

As alumni, we are grateful for the legacy of courage, service, and commitment demonstrated by so many who answered the call to serve. Today, we pause to reflect, remember, and give thanks to those who made the ultimate sacrifice, as well as the families who continue to honor their memory.

May we live with gratitude and purpose as we remember our fallen heroes.
