An alumni group of the Virginia Military Institute is publicly questioning why the college’s first Black superintendent was awarded a more “generous” bonus than last year

. Retired Army Maj. Gen. Cedric T. Wins has served as superintendent of the public military college since 2020. He first assumed the role in an interim capacity after General J.H. Binford Peay III resigned, following allegations of a racist culture at the school. Wins officially took on the role last year.

Based on his performance during the 2021-2022 school year, the VMI board of visitors awarded him a $100,000 bonus, Wyatt told CNN. When asked about Wins’ performance, Wyatt said the superintendent led the institute through the Covid-19 pandemic, guided the school through an investigation of its diversity and inclusion practices and launched a diversity, equity and inclusion program. Based in Lexington, Virginia, VMI is a public military college that has an enrollment of about 1,700 students.
