ARMY ROTC
ROTC OFFERS MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO EXCEL
In Army ROTC, it's not all classroom and field training. There are many opportunities for you to get to know your fellow cadets better and increase your skills in a variety of areas. Learn more about these events and activities below.

Rappelling from the roof of the Journalism building at UGA
Training and adventure often go hand in hand, as is the case at this rappelling exercise. Here, cadets rappel from the roof of the University’s Journalism building.
RANGER CHALLENGE
The Ranger Challenge is an opportunity for schools to "compete" with each other completing military tasks. In addition to a written examination where Cadets test their Army knowledge, there are physical fitness drills and field exercises. Battalions leave a Ranger Challenge with stronger bonds and sharper skills.
PERSHING RIFLES
The National Society of Pershing Rifles gives Army ROTC Cadets the opportunity to develop to the highest degree possible. Cadets can take part in precision trick rifle drill teams that provide them with the outstanding traits of leadership, military bearing and discipline.
Commissioning Ceremony
Each spring and December we commission our graduating cadets as Second Lieutenants in the United States Army. Families, friends and distinguished guests all participate in this momentous occasion.
