The Army has recently instituted a four-year scholarship program which will be offered to
Third of a series
graduating high school seniors. However, scholarships this year will be offered to sophomores presently enrolled in Army ROTC.
Col. William Brinkerhoff, professor of military science and commanding officer of Army ROTC at KU, said Army ROTC will continue to offer its traditional four-year non-scholarship program to entering freshmen.
THE TWO-YEAR non-scholarship program is the only one available to students presently enrolled at KU, Brinkerhoff said.
The two-year syllabus is available to any male student who is not enrolled in nor has been previously enrolled in the four year program. All sophomores in good academic standing are eligible to apply.
All two-year cadets are required to attend a six week Basic Camp at Ft. Benning, Ga., during the summer prior to their junior year. This enables new cadets to return to KU in the fall on equal status with those juniors in the four-year syllabus.
Upon return to school in their junior year, two-year cadets are inducted into the U.S. Army Reserve and are simultaneously contracted for the program. Cadets then begin drawing tax-free salary at the rate of $40 per month.
ALL ARMY ROTC students follow the same course of study while at KU, but have a choice of duty options upon graduation
They may choose infantry, artillery, armor, engineer, or signal corps duty.
The majority of ROTC students receive commissions as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army Reserve, but outstanding cadets are eligible to receive commissions in the regular Army.
As an additional option for selected cadets while at KU, Army ROTC also offers a Flight Indoctrination Program (FIP). The Army will pay for private pilot lessons at Lawrence Municipal Airport, leading to a private license upon completion of FAA requirements.
During the summer six-week Basic Camp, cadets are paid on the same scale as enlisted personnel in the E-2 status. The Army will also pay for travel expense to and from Ft. Benning.
Unlike Navy ROTC, cadets are not restricted from marriage while enrolled in the program.

Where does an engineer intern?
Before you decide on the job that's to start you on your professional career, it's good to ask a few point blank questions . . . like:
- Will this job let me rub shoulders with engineers doing things that haven't been done before, in all phases of engineering?
- Will I be working for an engineering oriented management whose only standard is excellence?
- Will I have access to experts in fields other than my own to help me solve problems and stimulate professional growth?
- Will I be working with the widest range of professional competence and technological facilities in the U. S.?
- Are engineering careers with this company stable . . . or do they depend upon proposals and market fluctuations?
