  • L'Institut militaire de Virginie (Virginia Military Institute, VMI) est la plus vieille université militaire financée par des fonds publics aux États-Unis. Elle est l'un des six collèges et académies nationales qui forment des officiers dans le pays. Les étudiants sont tous des cadets qui doivent suivre un régime militaire, dont le curriculum du Reserve Officers and Training Corps. Son campus se trouve à Lexington (Virginie). On y forme des officiers dans quatorze domaines des sciences, du génie et des arts libéraux. On la surnomme le West Point du Sud mais, contrairement à cette dernière, les étudiants ne sont pas obligés de servir dans les forces armées après leur formation, mais y sont habilités. (fr)
  • Virginia Military Institute (VMI) is a public senior military college in Lexington, Virginia. It was founded in 1839 as America's first state military college and is the oldest public senior military college in the United States. In keeping with its founding principles and unlike any other senior military college in the United States, VMI enrolls cadets only and awards bachelor's degrees exclusively. VMI offers its cadets strict military discipline combined with a physically and academically demanding environment. The institute grants degrees in 14 disciplines in engineering, science, and the liberal arts. While Abraham Lincoln first called VMI "The West Point of the South" because of its role during the American Civil War, the nickname has remained because VMI has produced more Army generals than any ROTC program in the United States. Despite the nickname, VMI differs from the federal military service academies in many regards. For example, as of 2019, VMI had a total enrollment of 1,722 cadets (as compared to 4,500 at the Academies) making it one of the smallest NCAA Division I schools in the United States. Additionally, today (as in the 1800s) all VMI cadets sleep on cots and live closely together in a more spartan and austere barracks environment than at the Service Academies. All VMI cadets must participate in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) of the United States Armed Forces programs, but are afforded the flexibility of pursuing civilian endeavors or accepting an officer's commission in the active or reserve components of one of the six U.S. military branches upon graduation. VMI's alumni include a secretary of state, secretary of defense, secretary of the Army, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, 7 Medal of Honor recipients, 13 Rhodes Scholars, Pulitzer Prize winners, an Academy Award winner, an Emmy Award and Golden Globe winner, a martyr recognized by the Episcopal Church, senators and representatives, governors, lieutenant governors, a Supreme Court justice, numerous college and university presidents, many business leaders (presidents and CEOs) and over 290 general and flag officers across all US service branches and several other countries.

  • Virginia Military Institute (VMI) – założona w 1839 roku 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". Kadeci i absolwenci VMI odegrali ważną rolę podczas wojny secesyjnej. Absolwenci VMI byli uznawani za najlepszych oficerów Południa, kilku z nich wyróżniło się w siłach Unii. W armii Konfederatów piętnastu absolwentów awansowało do stopnia generała. Trzecia część oficerów polowych w pułkach Wirginii w 1861 była absolwentami VMI. Z 1902 uczniów uczęszczających do VMI 1781 walczyło dla Południa. VMI była uczelnią wyłącznie męską aż do 1997 roku 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. (pl)
