“ There are several reasons why I enjoy ROTC, but one main reason is why I Joined ROTC. I joined ROTC because I received a four year scholarship to Carson-Newman with the army. With out the scholarship I wouldn't be going to school at a place like this. I love being in ROTC because I am constantly being pushed to do better and improve myself and keep a high standard in academics as well as physical fitness and leadership. The other cadets are some of the best people I've ever met and I cherish their friendships and their opinions in my life. ROTC is definitely one of the best decisions I've made in my life and I know it will take me farther than I ever thought I could go. ”

LEADERSHIP
In Army ROTC you will learn to become a leader-not just a person who gives orders but a person who leads by example. Being an Officer in the U.S. Army means you're a counselor, a strategist and a motivator. It's similar to being a vital manager in a corporation. As an Officer, you will lead other Soldiers in all situations and adjust to environments that are always changing. You'll be driven to achieve success with your team on every mission.
