yeomanry

Read a random definition: central government

A quick definition of yeomanry:

Yeomanry: A group of people called yeomen. In Great Britain, some yeomen volunteered to be part of a special group of soldiers called the yeomanry, who rode horses. Later, this group became part of the Territorial Army.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Yeomanry refers to the collective group of yeomen or volunteer cavalry units in Great Britain that were later transferred to the Territorial Army.

Examples:

  • The yeomanry were responsible for maintaining law and order in rural areas.
  • During the Napoleonic Wars, the yeomanry played a crucial role in defending Britain against invasion.
  • After the formation of the Territorial Army in 1908, many yeomanry units were converted into cavalry regiments.

The examples illustrate how yeomanry can refer to both a group of yeomen and a specific type of volunteer cavalry unit in Great Britain. The yeomanry were often called upon to serve in times of war or unrest, and their duties included maintaining order, defending the country, and supporting the regular army. With the formation of the Territorial Army, many yeomanry units were reorganized and became an important part of Britain's military defense.

Do the admissions offices close on Veterans Day?
I think someone here was really interested in Cornell Law. I forgot their username now but I just talked to the Cornell admissions rep at the Houston LSAC fair and apparently 2/3 of people who interview at Cornell ultimately get in.

I wonder what it’s dependent on? Are the 2/3 chosen on stats, or interview performance, or more holistically?
I'm honestly not sure

She said historically a quarter get interview invites and then two thirds of those people get in.
