Brian P. Donnelly (Law '11)

U.S. Marine Corps, 2004-2008

I joined the military partly to live up to a long family history of service, partly because the Marine Corps offered to pay my undergraduate tuition. I enrolled in the Naval ROTC program at Cornell University in 2000 and accepted a commission in 2004.
