Developing Tomorrow’s Leaders Today

Scientists and teachers, business leaders and policy makers, and officers for the US Army. Â鶹´«Ã½ and its Army ROTC program prepare students to be innovators and leaders for the 21st century. We produce lieutenants for the active Army, the National Guard, and the US Army Reserves. Each component has 16 branches that cater to multiple interests, including infantry, military intelligence, aviation, engineering, armor and medical services corps. Warriors wanted, each with a breadth of perspective who:

  • Demonstrate a capacity for excellence
  • Confident they will be competent Army leaders because of the rigor of the program
  • Committed to the Army for the duration and open-minded about further service

Cellist Tommy Mesa and pianist Yoon Lee have quickly become a powerful and collaborative duo, recording an album of contemporary works soon after they met. Their engagements include a performance of a world premiere at a VIP wedding and an upcoming tour at venues such as The Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C. This cello-piano duo delights their audiences with a range of lyrical works from the traditional classical canon to unearthed gems by contemporary voices.
