The U.S. Army announced a reorganization affecting ROTC programs at 84 college campuses, with changes ranging from closures to mergers with nearby institutions. These adjustments, set to take effect in summer 2026, aim to streamline operations and allocate resources more efficiently. The decision reflects broader military restructuring efforts and may impact student access to ROTC training and scholarships. Higher education leaders must consider the implications for campus military engagement and student recruitment, as well as potential shifts in institutional partnerships with the military. This restructuring underscores the need for adaptive strategies in maintaining military education programs.
