Office of Veterans Affairs provides programs/services that support our military connected students.
Dear students,
It is with profound sadness that I am announcing my departure from Hostos Community College. After almost 6 years with Hostos and almost 2 years with Central it is bittersweet that I am formally announcing my resignation from Hostos. I was offered a position within SUNY and I have formally accepted the offer. I am grateful to all of you for the wonderful memories and I cherish the time I spent working with you and on behalf of all of you; our military connected students. Thank you for your support and collaborative work to benefit our Hostos military population. I am grateful and honored to have worked on your behalf and I appreciate being a part of your academic journey. I know many of you here will move on to greater opportunities and accomplishments in life. I wish you all the very best in all your future endeavors and hope to see you in future still working with and advocating for our military affiliated student population.
Thank you and God Bless you all; this is My Last Salute
Sincerely,
SFC Ricardo Garcia, US ARMY RET.
OIF/ONE Disabled Combat Veteran
