It's how you become a military officer without attending a military academy. It is a college course consisting of early morning physical training, leadership labs, and historical and scientific academic classes. At the end of your college career you are commisioned as an officer (2nd Lt.) into the branch of the military that you were in during your ROTC training.
The high school course is JROTC.

N, a pretty awesome class, because it's almost IMPOSSIBLE TO FAIL IT, and you can pretty much talk shit to anyone while in uniform, and if they touch you, they got to deal with the school's admin and about 300 pissed off ROTC cadets
person a: so, what's going on?
person b: nothing too much, i can just forget about rotc because there's almost no way to fail that bitch, unless i tried.
