Re: NO MORE EXCUSES

I thought land grant schools had to offer rotc courses and at one tiime the course was compulsory. If memory serves me correctly I believe every male that attended pv had to take rotc at least one year. And as for engineering that is part of the mandate of courses that have to be offered.

You do realize SU puts out a lot of Engineers that companies line up for. You guys have a real inflated view of JSU and what folks across the country really think about HBCUs in general. There is a reason the US Navy has ROTC at SU. They evaluate our science and math programs with a fine tooth comb.

No they didn't have to offer it, just look at when HBCU's started offering ROTC.

Yes at one time every male did have to take Basic ROTC (2 years) Army or Navy at Prairie View A&M. It was changed when the interim president trying to get on the good side of the students had it changed. He didn't even come close to getting the job full time and he has forever changed one of the best college ROTC programs in the country for the worse.
