VMI is an outstanding institution, but make sure that you get a solid degree in a field that you will enjoy 30 years from now. As hard as it seems at 17, 27, or even 37, a military career doesn’t last long enough.

Agreed. I can’t overstress the importance of the above.
VMI is a great school with a proud tradition (especially if you are from the South).
