Gonzaga Military Service Community

Mission

The Gonzaga University Military Service Community (GU-MSC) exists to unite all members of the Gonzaga community who have served in any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces. It is predominantly comprised of alumni who graduated from the Gonzaga Army ROTC program but is also open to any alumni or friends of Gonzaga University who are currently serving as military professionals, and any veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. This community is also inclusive of friends and family members who are connected to the veteran members of this group.
