The Louisiana State University Corps of Cadets is a student military organization at Louisiana State University, being one of the oldest student organization on campus. Students who elect to join the Corps must participate in mandatory Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) courses, and receive commissions as officers in the United States armed forces upon graduation.[1] Current membership exceeds 300 cadets in LSU's Army and Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps, to include those who participate in the Naval ROTC program at Southern University (LSU itself lacks a Naval ROTC program, with numerous cadets cross affiliating with the program at SU).[2]
