Rimmelin 18:31, 16 January 2007 (UTC) I am also a graduate of CLI and do not agree with the hazing statement above either. The school was demanding and did have limited "hazing" when I attended in 1977-1978, but nothing that would be considered unreasonable and they did set an excellent example overall by promoting solid values of learning, hard work, and being a good citizen. I went on to serve in the USAF/ANG as an officer and pilot for 21 years and now work for a major airline. For many students, CLI provides an enviroment that will promote their success. Without it, they may struggle in their adult life. Best wishes and good luck! Lou Rimmelin '78.[reply]

The first paragraph above is sheer nonsense. I was hazed and as an older cadet dished out some hazing but the administration did not tolerate hazing when it was discovered and with very few exceptions what passed for hazing was nothing an average guy couldn't handle. I say this as a person who is now against hazing. The article on the school didn't make sense in some parts apparently due to poor editing but 42 yrs after graduation I can say I took away some very important lessons to live by and regret my failure to avail myself of all that was offered to me by CLI. My brother, class of 1958 shares my sentiments. Jim Bongiovanni "65"

Frank Jozsa, year of 05-06, Oct 23 2007 hazing is too casual a term to be used there. I made some recent edits to this article, but it is much past this last user's edit. mine were mainly clerical. I went to but did not graduate from CLMI.
