Sesquicentennial Series: UK Enlists
In celebration of the University of Kentucky's upcoming sesquicentennial in 2015, the 15th of 150 weekly installments on the university explores World War I's impact on the institution.
During the Fall semester of 2019, 27 cadets raised their right hand to swear an oath to their nation. These cadets have taken the first step in their journey to become an officer in the United States Army
The Army recognizes the need for young leaders to develop more cultural awareness and foreign language proficiency skills. Now more than ever, cultural awareness training is a vital component to the ROTC curriculum. Overseas immersions help educate future leaders in ways the classroom cannot. Cadets now have the opportunity to compete for immersion in more than 20 countries.
UK Army ROTC facilitated an event with Leadership Lexington Youth to help these exceptional high school students develop teamwork and critical thinking skills.
