Uniforms, equipment, and textbooks required for Army ROTC will be supplied by the Military Science Department. Students may also participate on a voluntary basis in many ROTC related activities. There is physical fitness training and hands-on equipment training during the week. Each semester, there is a social event and at least one weekend of training which includes marksmanship, orienteering, rappelling, and confidence courses. During vacations students can volunteer for regular army training in parachuting and helicopter operations.
All activities are free of cost and cadets are paid to attend some of the training.
The college ROTC Program consists of two courses. Graduate students enrolled in a two-year program can participate in the Advanced Course. To receive an Army Commision, cadets must complete the Advanced Course. These courses allow them to learn about the Army and the opportunities and responsibilities of an officer without incurring an obligation. The training is educational as well as fun, exciting, and rewarding.
