Military Training
Cadets in the Military Science Program recently used the nine-story Humanities-Social Science Building to practice rappelling. Picture at left is Cadet John Busuego, a senior biological science major, as he prepares to go down the side of the building. In the middle photo Cathy Aboy, from UC Riverside, checks her lines, while at right, another cadet is about to complete the exercise.

Rappelling, in addition to rifle marksmanship, map reading/land navigation and field training are part of several competitions cadets take part in as members of the Reserve Officers Training Corps. When they complete the ROTC program, cadets are commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army, U.S. Army Reserves or Army National Guard.
