Calling all Detachment 650 alumni! Let's get connected! We want to provide a network to link past, present, and future Ohio University Air Force and Space Force officers, show our cadets how Bobcat Wing alumnni are serving around the world, and facilitate mentorship opportunities for our cadets as they explore fields of interest. We hope to provide our alumni with a way to develop, inspire, and give back to Detachment 650 while also networking with classmates, instructors, and other alumni.
Here are some ways you can get connected:
- Join Ohio University's Bobcat Network . The Bobcat Network is a new and easy-to-use platform where alumni, students, faculty, and staff can engage in mentorship, networking, and professional development opportunities.
- Fill out this Detachment 650 Alumni Survey to let us know more about you, your career, and your alumni interests.
- If you're on Facebook, join the Detachment 650 Facebook group .
- Follow Detachment 650 on Facebook to see what our current cadets are up to.
Please reach out to us at afrotc650@ohio.edu if you have questions or ideas about how you'd like to volunteer. Detachment 650 needs you to build our future!
