We do have an active ROTC, but I am not sure how much longer. It wasn't that long ago, that we honored veterans and encouraged them to attend our universities.

I was even willing to go into massive debt to attend. After spending one day visiting the campus, I was completely cured of going to Columbia. To be very blunt, I found it to be a straight up asshole factory (much like Wall Street).Clifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-68599491008425441192011-02-21T01:55:14.598-05:002011-02-21T01:55:14.598-05:00Euripides:

Such an ideology pays lip service to the ideals of compassion and tolerance only when it suits its political agenda. Any dissenters are branded as heretics of the worst kind.

We need to get more conservatives into the education field and get more people involved with running for local school boards. <br /><br />The far left progressives are targeting our children and we can't let them.Just a conservative girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11982406297072353275noreply@blogger.com
