The ROTC is a ready-made course-designed and perfected to develop the qualities of leadership required in both military and civil enterprise."Dwight D. EisenhowerThe four-year program of the Army Reserve Officers Training Corps trains qualified students to be leaders and officers in the U. S. Army.The 300 cadets were trained in leadership, tactics, administration, and weapons. This year's program also included guest lectures, informal get togethers with Army Sponsors, and formal dinner-dances. Juniors received practical experience at Fort Lewis, Washington during a six-week summer camp. Upon graduation, cadets are commissioned 2nd lieutenants and serve on active duty from six months to three years.The Army ROTC develops officers in sufficient quantity to provide a corps of well-educated, well-rounded leaders - leaders for an Army that would have to expand with lightning speed in a national emergency.-¦ma HWHHHHHM| ,4k j^?9* ¦ ..w Xfot .j^flaei '^^>imli i&dkWf t- J8m^ _Jgggg Col.
