 Not to burst your bubble, hard-charger, but I suggest you stick to your own page and leave VMI's site alone.  The only people who would say VMI and your school are exactly the same are Citadel folks!  You guys are constantly trying to latch on to VMI.  You guys have far more in common with those other fine schools YOU mentioned than VMI.  You are half civilian/half military, and your civilians play on your sports teams.  Get a life and leave us alone...you guys are like dog poop we're trying to get off our shoes!  And by the way, you need to find out what ""active duty"" means...you dumb-@$$!!!  Just walk your own path and ""lighten up Francis!"" "
