Welcome to the WSU Army ROTC webpage, home of the Raider Battalion! Army ROTC is the foundation for leadership that the United States Army is looking for. Cadets are challenged physically, mentally and are expected to be outstanding individuals for the surrounding community. Above is a short video that will show you what to expect in the Army ROTC program here at WSU. For more information on being a Cadet, you can visit the Cadet Guide here.
Meet the Cadets Here! Welcome Back & Happy New Year From the Wright State Cadet Corps!
The Wright State Army ROTC has a challenging and action packed training plan for the Winter Term 2012. The Cadre and MS IV Cadets have some awesome training events planned for the WSCC. The following events are just a small sample: Day of Training, Regional Science Olympiad, General Honore' campus visit, Military "Army" Appreciation Basketball Game & The Military Ball.

Leader's Training Course 2012: The Leader's Training Course is the Army’s 2-year Army ROTC Program entry point. Through the Leader's Training Course, students without the AROTC Basic Course experience can examine the Army without incurring an obligation, and qualify for Advanced Course entry. The Army observes these students and determines their officer potential in a leadership oriented, challenging, and motivating 28 day training program at Fort Knox, Kentucky.

The game ball will be delivered via rappelling over 60 feet from the Nutter Center ceiling. I hope you can make for another great day of camaraderie supporting the Raiders! The Cadet Corps hits the woods for their Day of Training:
Nearly 60 MS I, MS II, MS III and MS IV Cadets participate in our fall Day of Training (DOT). The Raider Battalion used MS IV Cadets to assist in the planning, coordination & execution of the DOT. The DOT focused on individual training tasks and events as the building blocks for progressively more difficult situations later in the SY. Moreover, the DOT allowed our cadre to modify conditions in order to maximize the training benefit to the Cadets. Cadets Challenge the WSU Natatorium this fall:
(Left) LTC Wolford pushes Cadet off the high board, (Left Center) Cadet Casey using ACU floating device, (Right Center) Cadet Noble executing the gear drop, (Right) Cadets treading water for 10 minutes The Wright State Cadet Corps conducted their semi-annual Combat Water Survival Test, simply known as CWST on the 10th of October in the Campus Natatorium. CWST DCG-IMT as a non-waiverable Professional Military Education (PME) requirement that all Cadets must successfully complete in order to be commissioned.
