Many days you can see them walking around campus with uniforms on, books in hand, looking like they’re ready to march off to war, but are more likely just heading to the Ivy Room or Olin. They study the art of war, but also sit through the same boring lectures and pass out in as many uncomfortable chairs as the rest of us. Three afternoons a week, they fall in at Barton, but in the evenings they get lost in the crowds of Collegetown. They are the ROTC cadets of Cornell — soldiers of the future, students of today.
