We do 10 00:00:24,820 --> 00:00:26,931 have three people here today that are 11 00:00:26,931 --> 00:00:28,987 minutemen scholarship , two of which 12 00:00:28,987 --> 00:00:31,153 are Army Reserve Associated and one is 13 00:00:31,153 --> 00:00:33,098 National Guard . I was looking and 14 00:00:33,098 --> 00:00:35,209 listening around as I was looking for 15 00:00:35,209 --> 00:00:37,376 it . I found the Minuteman Scholarship 16 00:00:37,376 --> 00:00:39,431 and I applied . Obviously I got it . 17 00:00:39,431 --> 00:00:41,780 Now we're here at Drexel doing are at 18 00:00:41,780 --> 00:00:44,530 Drexel Army ROTC at that specific 19 00:00:44,530 --> 00:00:46,308 school . Most of our cadets are 20 00:00:46,308 --> 00:00:48,308 actually geared towards the reserve 21 00:00:48,308 --> 00:00:50,570 component because they actually have 22 00:00:50,570 --> 00:00:52,570 career building jobs that they have 23 00:00:52,570 --> 00:00:55,340 before they even graduate B and S and P . 24 00:00:55,350 --> 00:00:57,850 Cadet allows like experience outside of 25 00:00:57,850 --> 00:01:00,580 ROTC and like to see how the actual 26 00:01:00,580 --> 00:01:02,870 army is compared to ROTC and kind of 27 00:01:02,870 --> 00:01:04,840 like interest wine . Both . What's 28 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,896 really unique is our instructors not 29 00:01:06,896 --> 00:01:08,896 just our professors , but there are 30 00:01:08,896 --> 00:01:08,880 ones that are actually out training 31 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,102 them . So they're planning a training , 32 00:01:11,102 --> 00:01:13,158 they're developing them as leaders , 33 00:01:13,158 --> 00:01:15,047 they're mentoring them as they're 34 00:01:15,047 --> 00:01:17,158 growing into their adult boots is all 35 00:01:17,158 --> 00:01:19,269 my life . I've kind of tried to tried 36 00:01:19,269 --> 00:01:21,380 to be community oriented . We can get 37 00:01:21,380 --> 00:01:23,602 back to the community . So this is like 38 00:01:23,602 --> 00:01:25,824 the best thing I could think of in this 39 00:01:25,824 --> 00:01:28,047 stage of my life and forward to benefit 40 00:01:28,047 --> 00:01:31,480 myself . Okay in this lecture , our 41 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,480 instructors aren't only just in the 42 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,480 classroom where they helped to make 43 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,702 decisions on , do they want to join the 44 00:01:37,702 --> 00:01:39,591 service or not and then trying to 45 00:01:39,591 --> 00:01:39,000 figure out what's the right path for 46 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,950 them can't leave ?
