  • The Virginia Military Institute (VMI), located in Lexington, Virginia, is the oldest state-supported military college and one of six senior military colleges in the United States. Unlike any other state military college in the United States, all VMI students are military cadets. VMI offers cadets a spartan, physically demanding environment combined with strict military discipline. VMI offers bachelor's degrees in 14 disciplines in the fields of engineering, science, and the liberal arts. Although VMI has been called the "West Point of the South," it differs from the federal service academies in several respects. For example, while all VMI cadets must participate in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), they are not required to serve in the military upon graduation. Instead, VMI graduates may either accept a commission in any of the US military branches or pursue civilian endeavors upon graduation. VMI's Mission Statement: It is the mission of the Virginia Military Institute to produce educated and honorable men and women, prepared for the varied work of civil life, imbued with love of learning, confident in the functions and attitudes of leadership, possessing a high sense of public service, advocates of the American Democracy and free enterprise system, and ready as citizen-soldiers to defend their country in time of national peril.
  • Das Virginia Military Institute (VMI) in Lexington im US-amerikanischen Bundesstaat Virginia wurde am 11. November 1839 gegründet und gilt als das erste Militär-College der USA mit einem vierjährigen Ausbildungsgang. Einer der bekanntesten Lehrer war Thomas J. Jackson („Stonewall Jackson“). Die wohl bekanntesten Kadetten waren unter anderem George C. Marshall, George S. Patton, Simon B. Buckner junior und Lemuel Shepherd. Bis 1996 nahm das Virginia Military Institute nur männliche Kadetten auf. Erst in diesem Jahre wurde die Zulassung weiblicher Kadetten durch ein Urteil des Obersten Gerichtshofes der Vereinigten Staaten erzwungen. Die männlichen und weiblichen Kadetten können die Abschlüsse Bachelor of Arts und Bachelor of Science erwerben. Derzeit befinden sich 1.300 Kadetten am Institut, 5 % davon sind weiblichen Geschlechts. Für die Ausbildung stehen 145 Lehrkräfte zur Verfügung. Das VMI ist sehr traditionsbewusst, und so gibt es zahlreiche Jahrzehnte alte Riten, wie beispielsweise die Ratline, die Oath Ceremony im New Market Battlefield State Historical Park, den Breakout oder die wöchentliche Freitagsparade. Alle diese Traditionen, der Ehrenkodex und die strenge Hierarchie sind bis heute tief verwurzelt im Selbstverständnis des Institutes und seiner Angehörigen. Der Abschluss am VMI führt nicht zwangsläufig zu einer Militärkarriere. Die akademische Ausbildung und das Leben am VMI sind zwar militärisch aufgebaut, die eigentliche aktuelle militärische Ausbildung erfolgt aber erst bei der Teilnahme am Reserve-Officer-Training-Corps-Programm (ROTC) der vier Teilstreitkräfte der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika. Viele Kadetten nehmen aus finanziellen Gründen am ROTC teil, um so die Studiengebühren finanzieren zu können. Etwa 40 % der Kadetten setzen ihre Laufbahn in der so genannten Militär-A-Karriere fort. Das VMI unterhält verschiedene Austauschprogramme mit ausländischen Universitäten, darunter den beiden Bundeswehruniversitäten in Hamburg und München.
  • Virginia Military Institute er en delstateid, militær høyskole i Lexington i delstaten Virginia, USA. Det ble opprettet i 1839, og kalles ofte populært for «The West Point of the South» på grunn av sin viktige rolle under Den amerikanske borgerkrigen. Skolen rangeres meget høyt blant USAs militære høyskoler, og høyt blant alle landets læresteder hva angår Liberal Arts-tilbudet. VMI er det nest eldste av de seks såkalte Senior Military Colleges, som gir sivil høyskoleutdanning kombinert med reserveoffisersutdanning (ROTC). Studentene går i uniform i skoletiden. Kvinner ble ikke opptatt ved høyskolen før etter år 2000, som det siste lærestedet i USA, og endringen møtte protester fra skolens ansatte og mannlige studenter. Det gis allmenne høyskoleutdanninger opp til bachelorgradsnivå, med kombinasjon av militære fagdisipliner og fysisk fostring. Skolen praktiserer meget sterng disiplin på og utenfor campus. Ved høyskolen var det 1 362 studenter og 151 vitenskaplig ansatte i 2006, og samme året var skolepengene US$ 7 609 for studenter folkeregistrert i delstaten.
  • Virginia Military Institute (VMI), to założona w 1839 r. akademia wojskowa położona w mieście Lexington w stanie Wirginia. Jest to najstarszy w Ameryce college stricte wojskowy – wszyscy uczęszczający do niego studenci są kadetami. Generał John Pershing nazwał VMI "West Pointem Południa". VMI była uczelnią wyłącznie męską aż do 1997 r. kiedy to sąd zadecydował, że szkoła która jest utrzymywana z budżetu stanowego nie może dyskryminować czy wykluczać potencjalnych studentów ze względu na ich płeć. W odróżnieniu od innych szkół wojskowych w których stosowane są inne standardy i regulaminy dla mężczyzn i kobiet w VMI obowiązuje tylko jeden, bardzo wymagający regulamin sprawności fizycznej.
  • 維吉尼亞軍校(Virginia Military Institute),是一所美國军校, 1839年11月11日創校於維吉尼亞州萊星頓市。美國陸軍有所謂的南北兩強;北是位於紐約州的西點軍校, 南即是維吉尼亞軍校。該校以訓練嚴厲著稱,且校風一直略有種族歧視的味道。南北戰爭時期,在石牆傑克森(Stonewall Jackson)將軍領導下,訓練出衆多優秀南軍軍官。而於錢斯勒斯維爾戰役中,傑克森率其部隊突擊敵人時,看到當中有的軍人是軍校的舊生,遂說「這會是維吉尼亞軍校揚名立萬的日子。」 維吉尼亞軍校的傑出校友甚多,華人中最知名的是中華民國孫立人將軍。維吉尼亞軍校現為一所工理文科綜合大學。
