United States Navy announces new ROTC Unit at Yale, returning Naval ROTC to Connecticut
U.S. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus and University President Richard C. Levin signed an agreement May 26 to establish an ROTC unit at Yale, which will be the Navy's only ROTC unit in Connecticut. The Yale unit's first class of ROTC midshipmen will enter in the fall of 2012. In addition to Yale College students, the Yale unit will enroll students from other public and private universities in the state that participate under cross-town arrangements to take the ROTC program at Yale.
