THE OFFICIAL STATS: USMA at West Point graduated 995 cadets from the Class of 2015 on SAT 23 May 2015 at Michie Stadium in a spectacular ceremony that featured General Martin E. Dempsey ’74, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as the commencement speaker. After taking their Oath of Office, these members of West Point’s 217th graduating class were commissioned as second lieutenants in the U.S. Army (three will be commissioned in the Air Force, one in the Navy and one in the Marine Corps). This year’s class includes 162 women, 97 African Americans, 87 Hispanics, 66 Asian/Pacific Islanders, and 10 Native Americans. The class also includes 8 combat veterans, 13 international cadets, and 88 of its members are sons and daughters of West Point graduates.
