CU ROTC programs commission next generation of military leaders

The CU Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) program recently hosted commissioning ceremonies to officially appoint 53 CU ROTC cadets and midshipmen as military officers. The ceremonies celebrated years of academic coursework, intensive military training, leadership growth and personal dedication as graduates swore the oath of office and launched careers in the armed forces. CU is the only university in Colorado to host ROTC programs representing the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Space Force, continuing a longstanding tradition of preparing future military leaders through higher education and service.
