Today, the quad was covered in American flags, eac Today, the quad was covered in American flags, each one representing an Alabama veteran whose life was lost to suicide. Through Operation We Remember, members of the Troy for Troops Center and ROTC cadets came together to honor these veterans and remember the lives represented by each flag. It’s a powerful reminder that every flag represents a person, a story and a sacrifice that deserves to be remembered. Today, and always, we remember.

From a farm in Dothan, Alabama, to a career of mak From a farm in Dothan, Alabama, to a career of making lasers, mentoring engineers, writing books and constant curiosity, Dr. Melisa Buie has built a life around one powerful idea: keep learning, keep experimenting and don’t be afraid to faceplant. The first in her family to attend college, Melisa earned her bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Troy University before going on to earn a master’s in physics from Auburn University and a Ph.D. in nuclear engineering and plasma physics from the University of Michigan. Her career has spanned teaching, engineering, manufacturing, supply chain and global operations, where she has led complex transformations and helped organizations become better problem-solvers by learning to ask questions. Today, Melisa is an author, speaker and leadership strategist whose work challenges us to see failure differently. In her book, “Faceplant: FREE Yourself from Failure’s Funk,” she encourages leaders to replace fear with curiosity and treat setbacks not as the end of the story, but as information that can help us grow. Her story is a reminder that education is never just about where it leads; it’s about giving us the curiosity and courage to keep going.
