Canfield ’28: Hegseth dishonors Brown military students

On Monday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth spoke at the Naval War College in Newport. During his fiery speech on the dangers of civilianizing military education, he announced that he had cut the NWC’s ties with Brown. He commented that “the only place more stridently ideological in one direction more than Columbia or Harvard is Brown.” But his announcement that he had directed the end of the 2014 Research and Education Memorandum of Agreement between Brown and the NWC was only a blip in his half-hour speech. The attack on Brown, however brief, follows a pattern of insults to the many Brunonians who served their country in the military. Brown and its military-affiliated students have made impressive strides in the past 15 years to ensure our community is welcoming to our service members and prepare students for service careers. By disrespecting that community, Hegseth dishonors these students.
