Thirty-four black women are expected to graduate from West Point next week. That will be the largest class of African-American women to graduate together in the military academy's lengthy history, a West Point spokesman said.
That will be the largest class of African-American women to graduate together in the military academy's lengthy history, West Point spokesman Frank Demaro said. "Last year's graduating class had 27," said Demaro."And the expectation is next year's class will be even larger than this year's."Last year, the school appointed Lt. Darryl A. Williams as its first black superintendent.
It's encouraging and inspiring to see leaders graduating from the school that are from all different kinds of backgrounds and represent the diversity of the army itself," said Dowdy.West Point's graduating class is seeing diversity in other minority groups."Also, this year's class will have the highest number of female Hispanic graduates along with graduating our 5,000th female cadet since the first class of women to graduate in 1980," said Demaro.
