Thus, in one individual is vested the responsibility for the military instruction, discipline, and, to a large extent, the general welfare and morals of the entire student body. The Commandant, Lieutenant-Colonel George F. moore, is respected and trusted by every 9. 8: m. Cadet. His attendance at this institution has given him the sympathetic understanding of the problems which confront the Commandant.
