Gov. Glenn Youngkin paid a holiday visit to Virginia Military Institute on the last day of fall semester classes, Thursday, Dec. 12.
During his visit, Youngkin met with Maj. Gen. Cedric T. Wins ’85, superintendent, who gave him a briefing of the new strategic plan, “Forging 21st Century Leaders,” which was rolled out in November.
Following the meeting with Wins, Youngkin ate lunch in Crozet Hall with the corps of cadets, who gave him a rousing standing ovation as he walked in the door. The governor thanked the corps for the warm reception, and told them that for him, visiting VMI is always an honor and provides many glad memories. At the conclusion of a short speech, Youngkin granted amnesty "to those cadets who have unserved duties and commitments," to remove distractions from their studies in the final week of fall classes.
