Serving and protecting us: Virginia troopers graduate under extraordinary circumstances

The 37 members of the 131st Basic Session graduated Tuesday, March 17, 2020, in advance of their originally scheduled graduation date of Friday, March 20, 2020.

In accordance with Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s directives related to COVID-19, traditional commencement exercises were canceled for Friday for the 36 new Troopers and one new Special Agent Accountant.

“This is the first time in decades that state police has had to postpone an Academy graduation ceremony,” said Colonel Gary T. Settle, Virginia State Police Superintendent in a press release. “However, this in no way diminishes the Department’s pride in or appreciation of these new Troopers and Special Agent Accountant joining our ranks. We look forward to bringing these men and women and their families to our campus at a later date in order to properly celebrate their accomplishments of completing the Virginia State Police Academy.”
