Last week, we had a moment of reflection and respect @WWIIMemorial. This Memorial Day, @FloridaTech honors the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. No sacrifice is greater, and their service will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸

Did you know?
Florida Tech counts 46 military generals among its alumni, including Ann Dunwoody, the first woman in U.S history to achieve a four-star officer rank.
That’s decades of leadership, service and impact—all starting right here.

The Space Coast lost a tireless advocate with the recent passing of former U.S. Congressman Bill Posey. He was one of the first people I met soon after my arrival at @FloridaTech. His support of education and Florida Tech specifically enabled thousands of Panthers. #Legacy

It was a pleasure to spend time with Congressman Haridopolos, BPS School Board members, and Cocoa Beach High School leaders to see and learn about Cocoa Beach High’s Aqua Science Program and their state-of-the-art Aquadome. @FloridaTech is a proud supporter and partner.
