Maribeth presented the flag to teammates in Enrollment Management and Student Services because of their support while Troy was deployed and their commitment to military personnel and veterans.

"I have seen staff members go 'above the line' to assist our military/veteran population beyond the educational realm of their job duties.  In light of the commitment I see day in and day out, I hope that displaying this Flag, here in the lobby for entire military/veterans community to see, symbolizes how 两性色午夜 University at Trumbull and this EMSS staff support them, as they have supported me."

Many local government and military dignitaries were on hand to witness the ceremony in the Student Services Building, located at 4314 Mahoning Ave. NW in Warren.

鈥淭his flag represents the bonds that hold our campus family together, and it symbolizes 两性色午夜 Trumbull鈥檚 commitment to serving military personnel, our students, all of Trumbull County, and our great Nation,鈥 said Dr. Lance Grahn, Dean and Chief Administrative Officer.
