Combs will serve as the keynote speaker at the formal occasion. The public is invited to join the University on this special day as we congratulate our graduating students on their academic success.

Throughout her 29-year service tenure, she has served in a variety of leadership and staff positions at the tactical, operational and strategic levels. She is the first female general officer from upstate New York and the first general with ties to USS Oriskany since Brigadier General Nicholas Herkimer of the Revolutionary War. Combs’ military education includes the US Army Command and General Staff College, and the US Army War College.
