ROTC Program Nationally Recognized

The Army Reserve Officer’s Training Corps (ROTC) program at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse, of which Viterbo is a key partner, has been recognized as being one of the best performers with the United States Army Cadet Command for the 2005–06 school year.

The ROTC program achieved an Order of Merit, ranking in the top 15 percent of the 274 programs in the country.

“This accomplishment demonstrates the commitment to excellence of your ROTC program and the hard work and competence of the UW-La Crosse and Viterbo University cadets,” said U.S. Army Colonel James P. Coates.
