From military aspirations to leadership roles: The impact of the Minuteman Scholarship
Jordyn Hoit, an ROTC cadet from Escondido, California, has been profoundly influenced by the U.S. Army Reserve’s Minuteman Scholarship, which she received during a high school football game in her hometown. The scholarship has allowed her to attend Hofstra University, where she is majoring in criminology, while also committing to serve as a commissioned officer in the Army Reserve. By sharing her journey at an educators’ retreat, she has helped to demystify military opportunities for students without military backgrounds, showcasing how the scholarship plays a crucial role in shaping future leaders.
