Today, the Fisher College Police Department honors Memorial Day — a day of reflection, gratitude, and remembrance for the service members who gave their lives in defense of our nation.
Memorial Day began after the Civil War as Decoration Day, when communities gathered to place flowers on the graves of fallen soldiers. Over time, it became a national day of remembrance dedicated to all U.S. military personnel who made the ultimate sacrifice.
As a campus police department, we recognize the deep connection between military service and public service. Many within our Fisher community — students, alumni, faculty, staff, and officers — have worn the uniform. Today, we honor those who never returned home and the families who carry their legacy forward.
Their sacrifice will always matter.
