LEXINGTON, Va., April 15, 2024 — From matriculation through the walk across the stage at graduation, a VMI class works together to support and guide each other, unifying cadets from all backgrounds, ways of life, and diverse locations into one cohesive group with a shared commitment to excellence and leadership. 

After breaking out of the Rat Line, the Class of 2027 has taken their next step at the Institute, electing their class president, vice president, and historian. Earlier this month, 10 candidates for these positions stood in front of their brother rats in Memorial Hall to present their case to earn the right to lead VMI's newest class. Following a vote by the 4th Class cadets, these important positions have been filled.

  • Matthew D. Assouad of Fredericksburg, Virginia — class president
  • Pierson M. Read of Duluth, Georgia — class vice president
  • Isaiah S.A. Glover of Pottstown — class historian
