Originally, to prepare the student body-at-large for possible military service. Sort of like VMI or The Citadel.
Well, it's not "sort of" like VMI or The Citadel. It is exactly like VMI or The Citadel in 2015. How is it being optional a slight against those who choose to join? Honestly, I don't get this.

Except, when you go to VMI or the Citadel in 2015, you're pretty much know what you're going to be doing there ahead of time. At TAMU, you might want to go study to be an engineer or a farmer or (as I kid with Auburn fans) learn how to stick your hand into a cow's vulva, and see the corps and decide it might be something you want to try.

Don't assume bad faith, FF. I'm not slighting TAMU at all. I'm simply citing my knowledge of the history of y'all's school and how it's changed with the times.

It isn't. Nobody said it was. The moment one stops pretending to be in the army and actually IS in the army is identical for everyone.
