| Statewide Interest: |
| Our nation�s military plays a huge role in Florida, especially in USF�s ten-county service area, home to MacDill and other armed services and veterans� centers. The Joint Military Leadership Center (JMLC) brokers, builds and sustains relationships with those entities, adding value to the current ROTC programs (Army, Navy, Air Force), to USF�s existing academic strengths and to USF�s outreach responsibilities. The program better prepares Florida�s cadets, midshipmen and officers for the wars of the future, which are sure to be �joint� in nature. JMLC participants are enrolled in USF and in other private and public post-secondary institutions across the state. |
