We bid a warm and grateful farewell to retired U.S. Army Colonel Bill Cousins. During his tenure as the Director of the Military and Veterans Resource Center (MVRC) at the University of North Florida, he has been a pillar of support for our campus community.

We especially want to highlight and thank him for his tremendous impact on our ROTC program. Col. Cousins consistently went above and beyond to advocate for our cadets, providing the mentorship, resources, and leadership that have deeply shaped our future officers. Thank you for your exceptional continued service to our nation and to our students. We wish you the absolute best in your next chapter! 🦅
