Eisenberg receives ROTC training
Rachelle A. Eisenberg has received an Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training
Corps) four-year college scholarship at New Mexico State University, Las
Cruces.
Acceptance of the scholarship signifies the cadet's desire to be commissioned
as a second lieutenant in the Army after graduating from the university and
completing the ROTC program. ROTC cadets receive military leadership training
to serve with distinction as an officer in the Army, both in and out of uniform.
The four-year scholarships are awarded through a highly competitive national
selection process, and pay up to $16,000 a year for tuition and education
fees, book allowance, and a tax-free monthly subsistence allowance of $200
a month for up to 10 months during the effective scholarship period.
ROTC scholarship graduates incur an eight year military service obligation
in the Army, which can be served either on active duty and/or in the reserve
components.
She is the daughter of Karen S. Eisenberg of Pecos.
The cadet is a 2002 graduate of Pecos High School.
