Students, faculty, staff, administrators, 社区成员也到场支持这个特别的活动. 3月31日,RCSJ-Gloucester为自己的名人墙举行了类似的庆祝活动.

该装置位于凯瑟琳J. Arpino Education and Humanities Center, 在军事服务办公室的大厅里,展示了军校学生的照片,以及纪念学院过去的年度学生退伍军人获得者的牌匾, Student Veteran Association presidents, and its military-affiliated employees.

“During the College’s 55+ year history, 退伍军人是我们学生团体中受人尊敬的成员,也是我们校园里的领导者和学者,” said Jim Piccone, VP/CAO, RCSJ–Cumberland. “军事名人墙每天都在提醒我们,自由不是免费的,那些愿意服务的人是真正的英雄!”

这个项目的灵感之一是位于军事基地的表彰墙,表彰在那里服役的单位.

“许多军事基地……都有一些荣誉场所……我们在那里炫耀部队的荣誉或成就,” said John Ryder, director, student affairs and​ military services, RCSJ. “我想我们需要一些东西来识别我们的军人学生, our military staff, and the recognitions the [College] receives.”

RCSJ因其为军事学生提供的高水平服务而获得多项认可,包括军事友好®学校指定和新泽西州州长“我们重视退伍军人”学术界奖. Earlier this month, the College was also chosen as one of Military Times best institutions 为退伍军人追求更高的教育理想.

“它向我们的校园社区,特别是RCSJ的军事社区表明,学校及其管理部门是军事支持者,并为他们的成就感到自豪,” Ryder, a combat veteran, 谁有热情帮助军人和他们的家人, said.

坎伯兰郡校园教育基金会(CCCEF)的代表也出席了此次活动,并在仪式上发挥了关键作用.
