AROTC Enlistment

The Army ROTC unit has announced
that qualified students may join the unit
second semester, receiving the increased
financial benefits recently legislated for
students already participating.

Students who join the program will
devote extra time once a month to
compensate for the time missed during
the first semester. The standard AROTC
program requires, in addition, two hours
of class time per week and two hours of
leadership laboratory.

The Department of Military Science
will notify each participant's draft board
of his enrollment in the program. The
student will receive a monthly stipend
which was recently raised from $50 to
$100.

Interested first year students should
contact the AROTC department, in B-30
old Cabell Hall, before February 7.
Second and third year students should
contact the department by March 15.
