| Summary |
This copy of the regulations of the Virginia Military Institute was issued during Jackson's professorship, as evident in his name's being listed as an academic staff member. It provides what is expected of cadets entering the institute, including academic standings and military exercises. Stonewall Jackson accepted a newly created teaching position at the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) in the spring of 1851. He became Professor of Natural and Experimental Philosophy and Instructor of Artillery. Parts of Jackson's curriculum are still taught at VMI, regarded as timeless military essentials: discipline, mobility, assessing the enemy's strength and intentions while attempting to conceal your own and the efficiency of artillery combined with an infantry assault. |
