WICHITA, Kan. – The official party, graduates and current and former staff of the Wichita State University Army Reserve Officer Training Corps celebrate the commissioning of the program’s first two Army officers in nearly 30 years May 14. After being disbanded in 1993, the WSU ROTC program was reestablished in the fall of 2019 as the result of a collaboration between Dr. Marché Fleming-Randle, vice president of WSU, and the Kansas Army National Guard. The program’s uniformed cadre and instructors are entirely comprised of KSARNG members, a unique arrangement compared to other ROTC programs, which are usually staffed by Active-Duty officers and noncommissioned officers. The new officers, 2nd Lt. José Garcia and 2nd Lt. Gabriel Schrag, are now members of the Medical Service Corps, Kansas Army National Guard, and the Nurse Corps, Active Duty, respectively.
