Summary — HJR 101: Memorial/Recognition — MTSU Army ROTC, 75th Anniversary

Main purpose

House Joint Resolution 101 is an honorary, non-binding resolution adopted by the Tennessee General Assembly to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the U.S. Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) program at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU). The resolution recognizes the program’s history, achievements, and contributions to military leadership and aviation education.

Key provisions

  • Commemorates the 75th anniversary of the MTSU Army ROTC program.
  • Highlights program achievements:
    • More than 1,575 officers commissioned into all branches of the U.S. Army.
    • Two-time recognition as the nation’s number-one Army ROTC detachment.
    • Role in originating MTSU’s Aerospace Program and providing on‑campus flight training.
  • Applauds the dedication and accomplishments of MTSU ROTC cadets and alumni.
  • Directs preparation of an appropriate copy of the resolution for presentation (with a procedural clause allowing omission of House/Senate designation on the presented copy).

Who is affected

  • Primarily symbolic: MTSU Army ROTC cadets, alumni, faculty, and the Middle Tennessee State University community.
  • No regulatory, administrative, or financial obligations are created for state government, local governments, businesses, or individuals.

Fiscal and legal impact

  • The resolution is ceremonial and non-binding; it does not appropriate funds, create duties, or change law.
  • No fiscal impact is indicated.

Procedural/timeline highlights

  • Filed: November 20, 2024.
  • House adoption (recorded): Adopted 90–0 (House action dated Feb 6, 2025).
  • Senate concurrence: Concurred 31–0 (Feb 13, 2025).

Notes

  • This packet also contains materials for a separate measure titled “H.J.R. 101 — Joint Resolution on Federal Funds” from Utah (relating to acceptance of federal Rural Health Transformation Program funds). That is a distinct resolution and unrelated to the Tennessee commemorative HJR 101 summarized above.
