Ive never known so I'm going to ask...why do all those aTm students dress in the military/boy scout gear? Is it like ROTC where they are required to wear it? Are they active military or reserves? What's the story? Not everyone is dressed that way so what is going on?Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

TAMU is a senior military college like VMI and Citadel. The ones dressed are all part of the Corps of Cadets. They're all ROTC and receive commissions after graduation.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostIve never known so I'm going to ask...why do all those aTm students dress in the military/boy scout gear?
