Besides studying for her
degree in Sociology, junior
Patty Stout is also learning
valuable skills through Army
ROTC.
“I am enrolled in Army
ROTC because my Dad en
couraged me to. His main
reason was there was no
obligation for the freshman
and sophomore years and
there was a good chance of
getting a scholarship. After my
freshman year, I decided I en
joyed ROTC enough to attend
Basic Camp at Fort Knox
Kentucky, where 1 won a two
year scholarship.”
“I really enjoy ROTC. It
does not take up a lot of time,
and 1 have done things I
would not normally do, like
rapelling, orienteering, and at
tending Army Airborne
School. I am also developing
leadership and management
skills that I probably would
not get anywhere else.”
"The most important
thing I have gotten from
ROTC is the ability to set
goals and the discipline to
achieve them. 1 take more
pride in my school work and
do better in my classes than
ever before.”
"When 1 consider all the
skills, experience and con
fidence 1 am getting now; and
the promise of much more
when I get my officer’s com
mission, 1 am really glad I join
ed ROTC. I now know I can
achieve arty goal I set for
myself and I have a great
future ahead of me because of
it.”
