Can a school force kids to take ROTC ??? [View all]
My daughter's friend was placed in the ROTC class at their high school simply because there weren't any other electives available (I'm quite sure this is a direct consequence of budget cuts and teacher layoffs).
Can they do that? This is the first I'd heard of this, I was always under the impression that ROTC was purely voluntary and have never heard of anyone being placed in it who didn't want to be there.
