The diruption helped drive home the point the Republican Society was trying to make with inviting Bannon, which is the need for civil discourse. People can be so quick to jump to each other’s throats over some perceived slight or injustice and fail to see the bigger picture. Unfor- tuneately this single protester reinforced the idea that all of the people protesting were rude and just wanted the event shut down.

  • Buildings Around Campus
    Buildings Around Campus The Daniel Library was constructed in 1960 and is named in honor of the late Charles E. Daniel, Citadel 1918, and the late R. Hugh Daniel, Citadel 1929, both distinguished Citadel men who were lifelong benefactors of the college. The men established the Daniel International Corporation - at one time the third largest construction company in the world. The main library collection contains more than 1,128,798 books, bound periodicals, and government documents and pamphlets. Facilities include a 12,000 volume reference collection and 449,390 microfilm and microfilm readers. Wireless internet is accessible from most major seating areas of the first and second floors. Eight Citadel murals and portraits of The Citadel's superintendents, presidents (a term used after 1922), and distinguished alumni are featured on the interior walls. Summerall Chapel was erected during 1936-1937. Cruciform in design, the Chapel is a shrine of religion, patriotism, and remembrance. From the air the red clay tile roof forms a cross. It was designed in the spirit of 14th century Gothic. The furniture throughout is plain-sawed Appalachian Mountain white oak stained cathedral brown. The ceiling and timbering are pine. The lighting fixtures are handcrafted wrought iron throughout. Hanging from the walls are flags from the 50 states and the territories. The Chapel is in use year round with weekly religious services and weddings. The Grave of General Mark W. Clark.

  • The Guidon 2016 - 2017
    The Guidon 2016 - 2017 The South Carolina Corps of Cadets WELCOME TO THE CITADEL The Guidon is published every year as a source of information for fourth-class cadets. As a member of the Class of 2020, you are highly encouraged to familiarize yourself with all of the information enclosed in The Guidon. Since your initial time on campus will be filled with many activities, it is suggested to be familiar with as much of this information as possible before you report. The Guidon consists of two parts: general information that will help a cadet recruit become acclimated to The Citadel campus and lifestyle and required fourth-class knowledge, a mix of traditional Citadel knowledge and leader development knowledge. The cadet chain of command will test knobs on each piece of required knowledge and record the results in the tracking log in the back of The Guidon. This log and the process associated with it will be one assessment tool TACs can use as part of determining whether or not to certify cadets in several LDP learning outcomes. The required knowledge will be presented in manageable sizes that correspond to milestones in the fourth-classmen’s progression through the year. The milestones are broken down as follows: the end of Challenge Week, the end of Cadre Period, the end of first semester, and second semester until Recognition Day. The knowledge progresses from rudimentary information through more complex ideas, and culminates with the cadets becoming familiar with the Leadership Development Plan for The Citadel and how they will fit into that plan as upperclassmen.

You are to be commended for accepting the academic, physical and mental challenges that await you. Those challenges will foster personal growth that develops you in mind, body and spirit. Your time as a cadet will be more demanding and more rewarding than you ever thought possible.
