Air Force ROTC sounds like its a lot of hard work. What type of fun things do you do?
While it does take work to train to be an officer in the Air Force, we do have a lot fun in Air Force ROTC. There are activities that include the whole detachment such as the annual Dining Out, which is a formal military dinner in which you can bring a date. If you’re into sports, you’ll often find ultimate frisbee games or basketball games going on around campus with cadets. For freshmen, there is a Freshman ROTC Retreat. This retreat involves the freshmen from the 3 branches of ROTC at Notre Dame (Air Force, Army, and Navy) and is normally a 24-hour event in which you can get to know many other freshmen that don’t necessarily go to Valparaiso or are even in Air Force ROTC. Additionally, from time to time we’ll host guest speakers who tell us about their experiences in the Air Force.
