<p>It’s not a hook now. It’s a program which Yale has re-instituted to allow its ROTC students to not have to travel to another campus for ROTC training. For Yale, it’s another feature to attract certain students. But there certainly is no shortage of students who may take this option.</p>
<p>BTW: you shouldn’t just “want to join ROTC” but instead, train to become a leader of men & women at a time of (reduced) war.</p>
