【 摘 要 】

There has been research and writing on the topic of ROTC and the relationship between ROTC and higher education.Historians take the approach and focus their efforts on controversies surrounding the program. This paper will do that as well, but much of the work by other historians has been focused on the period of the Vietnam War and the anti-war and anti-ROTC protests on college campuses around the United States.Adam Garfinkle;;s work in Telltale Hearts, goes into great detail over the anti-war movements on college campuses during the Vietnam War. Kenneth Heineman;;s Campus Wars, also covers the anti-war movement on college campuses across the United States extensively.While my research will compliment those efforts, this work will continue to analyze controversies of more contemporary events in history that are associated with ROTC.Currently there is not extensive work that has been written about the current issues between colleges and ROTC, but as stated earlier, where other researchers and historians have stopped, this paper will continue the history, and address more contemporary events.
