ROTC Offers Many Opportunities to Excel
In Army ROTC, it's not all classroom and field training. There are many opportunities
for you to get to know your fellow cadets better and increase your skills in a variety
of areas. Learn more about these events and activities below.
Ranger Challenge
The Ranger Challenge is an opportunity for schools to "compete" with each other
completing military tasks. In addition to a written examination where Cadets
test their Army knowledge, there are physical fitness drills and field exercises.
Battalions leave a Ranger Challenge with stronger bonds and sharper skills.
Pershing Rifles
The National Society of Pershing Rifles gives Army ROTC Cadets the opportunity
to develop to the highest degree possible. Cadets can take part in precision
trick rifle drill teams that provide them with the outstanding traits of
leadership, military bearing and discipline.
Homecoming
Every fall, Cadets participate in NSU Homecoming activities, recognizing ROTC Alumni and Hall of Fame members, while showcasing the battalion in parades and ceremonies.
Regimental Ball
Each spring, Cadets participate in a Northwestern State University Demon Regiment Military Ball. This event builds camaraderie and bonds between the alumni and the Cadets in the Demon Battalion. The University President, distinguished guests, and Demon Regiment Hall of Fame members take part in this important event.
