Military Training

Clemson College is rated by the
War Department as MILITARY Col
lege." All students are required to
wear the uniform and are under mil
ltary discipline at all times. Military
instruction is supervised by regular
army officers.
Clemson College has over 300 men
in the service, many of them holding
high rank. When war was declared,
rfifty-one of the class of 1917 went to
the first officers training camp, and
forty-seven of these won commissions.
Since then, the military instruction
has been made even more efficient.
No patriotic young man can afford to
miss the opportunity of combining
with technical education thorough
military training.
Clemson College is a member of
the Senior Division of the Reserve
Officers Training Corps. All Fresh
men, Sophomores and Short Course
students are required to take the Basic
Course of three ,.ours military in
struction per week. Juniors and Sem
iors may enter the Advanced Course
if physically and otherwise qualified,
and if admitted, are required to take
additional military instruction.
All students in the basic and Ad-
vanced Course receive from the gov
ernment $14.00 on their uniforms, and
students in the Advanced Course 5000
per month in addition for subsistence.
While no obligation rests upon the
graduate of the Advanced Course,
completion of it gives distinct military
advantages and special military op-
portunities. Membership in the ad-
vanced course amounts practically to
two year scholarship furnished by
the Federal Government.
