Book excerpt: Sexual assault, drug, and cheating scandals; institutional malfunction by way of administrative conspiracy, treachery, and delinquency; factious, tyrannical cadet leadership engendered by ideological misgivings and mob-mentality social justice; hazing, fraternal rights of passage, and selective character assassination; kangaroo courts, radicals, and rumor-mongers: These are the collective hallmark of the United States Air Force Academy. Follow a beleaguered class of 2005 cadet as he struggles to cope with and make sense of his surroundings. In Rogue Institution, former cadet Graney exposes the hypocrisy and cruelty that he found there, and vividly illustrates the wide spectrum of human emotion, thought, and behavior resultant from such an environment. Rogue Institution is a thought-provoking, action-oriented tribute to moral courage and self-determination, sure to inspire and enlighten readers.
