On behalf of the ROTC and Interim President Andrew Workman, we invite you to attend a Veterans Day Ceremony to honor those within our community who have served our country. The ceremony will be held on Monday, November 12, at 11 a.m.

This year’s theme will be “National Service and Community Service” with a keynote address from Eric B. Wallin, Executive Director and General Counsel for Operation Stand Down Rhode Island, Inc. (OSDRI ). After graduating from Roger Williams University School of Law in 1997, Mr. Wallin joined the United States Air Force and served as a Captain in the Department of the Judge Advocate General. He returned home to Rhode Island and was appointed a Special Assistant Attorney General in the Rhode Island Department of Attorney General. Subsequently, he opened his own law practice and also served on the Board of Directors of OSDRI. Mr. Wallin was hired as Executive Director and General Counsel in 2011. Mr. Wallin is admitted to practice law before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces and is a member of the bars of Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
