Alumni news alert‼️ LTCs (Ret) BART and Laura Hill have amazing stories and we were glad to be able to hear them when they visited in October.

Check out this episode of the Bengal Business Radio Show, where Interim Dean Dr. Alex Bolinger welcomes Bart and Laura Hill, both retired Lieutenant Colonels from the US Army Signal Corps and distinguished ISU alumni! The conversation follows their unique journeys from ISU through groundbreaking military service, pivotal roles during the events of 9/11, and remarkable leadership positions shaping national security and technology at the White House, Pentagon, and Cisco. The Hills share profound stories of perseverance, the evolution of their careers, advice for current students, and the lasting power of resilience and self-belief.

We are back folks in a big way! We cannot wait to share what we have been up to. The first big announcement is ISU ARMY ROTC IS HERE TO STAY!! Our program will not be closing and we are so excited about that. There will be realignments in Cadet Command and we will be moving under Weber State Army ROTC in the summer time.

To start that partnership off, we invited Weber State Army ROTC up to the ISU vs WSU football game. Two cadets from each school presented the colors together during pre-game and cadets did push ups on the sidelines during the game when their respective school scored points.

It's midterms and what better way to finish the week then cuddling up in a blanket to destress? With that in mind, we are having a giveaway and giving 2 people an ROTC bundle that includes a sherpa lined blanket, Bengal Detachment sweatshirt, and a dry bag filled with goodies.

One entry for leaving a comment on the post.

Winners will be picked at 12:00pm on Friday, October 19 and notified so you have a chance to pick it up before the weekend. Open to all students, faculty, and staff at Idaho State University.

We are just under 4 weeks away from Homecoming 2025! Are you coming? ROTC will be participating in events all day. We will be carrying the colors at the beginning of the parade, presenting the colors at the game, doing push ups in the end zone as our football team plays against Northern Arizona University, and hosting our ROTC Alumni and Veteran Homecoming Tailgate!

We are inviting ROTC alumni, student veterans, community veterans, current servicemembers, and their families to swing by our tailgate located on the South side of the ICCU Dome in the field next to the Papenburg Practice Field by the Nursing Building. Please RSVP if you are planning on joining us so we can ensure we have enough food. We will also have some games and music. Our tailgate will be from 1-3pm so the ROTC cadets can get ready for the game and you're able to take part in the ISU Homecoming Tailgate on the North side of the ICCU Dome as well.
