HB1377 should be struck down immediately. Virginia Military Institute is a nationally respected institution with a proven record of excellence. VMI is ranked the #4 public liberal arts college in the nation and consistently produces leaders of character and competence.
VMI graduates more generals than any ROTC program and, outside the federal academies, more Army generals than any other college. More than half of its graduates serve in the military. Its model works. There is no demonstrated problem this bill solves and would be an embarrassment to our Commonwealth.
HB1377 is unnecessary and should be rejected.
