South Carolina Legislature passed “An Act to Establish a Com- petent Force to act as a Municipal Guard for the Protection of the City of Charleston and Vicinity.” Land on the north end of Marion Square was selected for an arsenal and guard house, and in 1829, the architect, Frederick Wesner, completed the building which was known as The Citadel. A similar facility was constructed in Columbia, South Carolina, which was known as The Arsenal. State troops occupied both sites at a cost of $24,000 a year. Governor John P. Richardson felt that guard duties should be combined with a system of education. On December 20, 1842, the South Carolina Legislature passed an act establishing the South Carolina Military Academy. The Citadel and The Arsenal were converted into educational institutions, and students replaced the state troops. In 1845, the role of The Arsenal was changed to the instruction of freshmen. As a result, cadets spent their first year in Columbia and transferred to The Citadel for the remaining three years. The South Carolina Military Acad- emy became known for its high academic standards and strict military discipline. Civil War Period Enrollment in The South Carolina Military Academy increased from 34 stu- dents in 1843 to 296 in 1864. The $200 tuition in 1843 increased to $1,200 in 1864. When South Carolina seceded from the Union in December 1860, Major Robert Anderson moved his garrison of U.S. troops to Fort Sumter and requested reinforcements from the federal government. On January 9, 1861, Citadel cadets stationed on Morris Island fired on the U.S. steamer, theStar of the West, as it attempted to supply Fort Sumter with troops and supplies. This was the first overt act of the war. On January 28, 1861, the Corps of Cadets was made part of the military organization of the state and was known as the Battalion of State Cadets. The Arsenal and The Citadel continued to operate as military academies; however, classes were often disrupted

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by South Carolina State Documents Depository Library, Archives and Museum Annual Assessment Report, 2004-2005 I. Mission of the Library, Archives and Museum The Library, Archives and Museum are a major component of South Carolina’s only state-assisted military college, The Citadel. They participate in the teaching, research, and public service programs of The Citadel: by providing scholarly information; by the acquisition, organization, management, preservation, and arrangement of collections for access and use; by provision of supportive reference and instruction services; and by a variety of cooperative and reciprocal programs in the local area, the region and the state. As a collaborator in the process of teaching, research, and public service, they provide leadership in the use of information both on The Citadel campus and in the Charleston Academic Library Consortium (CALC), the local consortium of area libraries. The faculty and staff of the Library, Archives and Museum play an important role in improving the delivery, management, and use of information. The Library, Archives and Museum will continue to be a place where information resources are physically and electronically available. The building is an important resource for study and research. However, through electronic networking we will seek ways to deliver information to users at the place and moment of need. As the campus leader in the acquisition, organization, and delivery of information, we face a significant challenge. That challenge is to deliver knowledge via new technologies and methods while continuing to support more traditional modes of scholarly communication, and to maintain and update an antiquated building.

  • 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.

  • The History of the Citadel
    The History of The Citadel The name Citadel evokes images of military might and strength. Before its use as The Citadel Academy beginning in 1842, the site of the institution had been used for military purposes by both the state and federal governments dating back to colonial times. As the economy of South Carolina diversified to include the cultivation of crops other than rice, a building was needed for the “inspection of tobacco.” It was on this site in downtown Charleston that such a building was built in 1790. On February 22, 1797, the two regiments of the city were reviewed by President George Washington near the “Tobacco Inspection” on what was later known as the Citadel Green, now known as Marion Square. In December, 1822, the legislature passed “An Act to Establish a Competent Force as a Municipal Guard for the Protection of the City of Charleston and Vicinity.” Marion Square was selected for an arsenal and guard house and in 1829, the building which was to be known as the Citadel was completed. The state and city authorities requested that it be garrisoned by United States troops from Fort Moultrie. The Nullification Crises of 1832 and the growing schism between North and South caused the state to request the withdrawal of United States troops in 1832, and the facility was garrisoned by South Carolina troops for the next ten years. In 1910, the college’s name was officially changed from The South Carolina Military Academy to The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. This change was necessary to reflect the academic nature of the institution.
