Jrotc Reflection

236 Words1 Page

Even though I haven’t been in the JROTC program long, I can already see improvements in myself. I had heard about JROTC and how it affected every student that went to the program, and it immediately got me interested. Before I started JROTC I was shy, unconfident, and undereducated about the history of the United States. My instructors strongly encourage and positively push me out of my comfort zone, mostly with public speaking. If you never leave your comfort zone, you’ll never change.

    1360 Words  | 6 Pages

    The fourth-class system is the system which upperclassmen trained and oversaw the underclassmen. Cadets were ruled by the upperclassmen who would pull pranks, yell and torture freshman; “…The Citadel is exceptional because the college gives a handful of older student leave to ‘govern’ the others as they see fit” (Faludi 82). In this sort of situation, you must stick with fellow freshman to make it through the tough curriculum and training the school has. For example, in Air Force ROTC, we are yelled at by upperclassmen if we do not know certain knowledge or do not help another cadet out. To keep each other from getting yelled at, we help each other study.

To me, this in itself is a large accomplishment and is something I am very proud of. Every cadet goes through many ups and downs, I know in my seven years I have seen more than my fair share of trouble, but like my father always said, it 's not how you fall, but how you pick yourself back up.

  • MHA Program Reflection

    1192 Words  | 5 Pages

    One of the most important actions that a student can take, is to be honest, and self-reflective, about the level of understanding achieved after completing any course within his/her education career. From my personal view, I feel that this class provided me with a great introduction to the MHA program, and is setting me up for successful in this educational program; but with that being said I would not pretend that I was able to assimilate every concept that was presented in this course, I would definitely need to continue to review the material in this course and on the MHA program overall, so that I could be a knowledgeable, and effective Health Care Manager. When it comes to my ability to discuss the different learning outcomes, I have to say that I definitely acquired a much deeper understanding of the material presented in this course. The materials were not difficult concepts to understand, but sometimes the way the material was delivered made it a difficult task just to read through the information, but as I would imagine, we are trying to achieve an education at a much higher level, which requires the processing and understanding of much more complex information, that sometimes will be
