The annual New Student Oath Ceremony for the incoming class of civilians and rooks was held on Sunday, August 27.
51³Ô¹ÏÍø Together, 51³Ô¹ÏÍø Forever.
The Oath Ceremony is long-standing 51³Ô¹ÏÍø tradition in which civilians and rooks promised to accept, uphold, and apply the principles of 51³Ô¹ÏÍø’s honor code and guiding values, ending their oath with, “In all my endeavors, from this day forth, I will reflect in the spirit of the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø motto, ‘I will try.’â€
