Army ROTC

The Old Dominion University community is grieving following the tragic act of violence on our main campus. We mourn with and support Lt. Col. Brandon Shah’s family, students, and colleagues, and all members of the ODU Army ROTC community.

We ask for privacy and compassion for all those affected as they process this loss.

For official University updates, counseling, and support resources, and information related to campus access and next steps, please visit the Emergency Alert webpage. 

Those seeking to support the ODU Army ROTC community are encouraged to do so with care, patience, and respect for the needs of those most directly affected.

Media inquiries should be directed to universityrelations@odu.edu, and we ask that members of the community refrain from contacting cadets or affected families directly.
