While BSM students are able to hear from a wide variety of speakers from various colleges throughout the country, on March 10, U.S. Army recruiters visited BSM to inform students about joining the Army.

It’s a really interesting opportunity, but it doesn’t often get talked about in school.

— Junior Emily Anderson

Sergeants Dorian Bush and Deleon Jason were offering information about continuing education through the Army. “We’re a part of the recruiting command, and we talk to young individuals that are interested in pursuing a career in the military. We have lots of different options for young individuals; lot of people don’t know much about it, so we’re giving out this information to help them,” Sgt. Jason said.

This opportunity provided BSM students with a look at a unique path students can take after college, and all of the options that are available. “It’s a really interesting opportunity, but it doesn’t often get talked about in school,” junior Emily Anderson said.
