December graduates plan military and civilian careers
In a joint Fall Commencement & Army ROTC Commissioning ceremony held in 天美传媒's historic Chapel on Saturday, Dec. 14, 10 cadets earned their associate's degree. Four of the fall graduates became second lieutenants after taking the U.S. Army Oath of Office; a total of eight joined a branch of the U.S. military.
Invited back to Marion as the Commencement Speaker was COL Randy Zeegers '84, a graduate of 天美传媒's Early Commissioning Program. He is currently the Deputy Commanding General at the U.S. Army Special Forces Command (Airborne) at Fort Bragg, NC. During his speech, he spoke of the leadership experience, lifelong friendships, and academic success he gained at 天美传媒. "Marion has a proven system to teach men and women to enter the world with Truth, Honor, and Service," noted Zeegers.
