I grew up in Chareston county so I was a big Citadel fan

That was you?

Thanks!

Seriously, I had a great experience in Charleston.

I won't say I was raised in a strict household with my Dad as a Colonel, but my faculty advisor at The Cid said I was the only person he had seen come through there that looked upon it as a party school.

I still go back at least once a year. I was a Summerall Guard AND Senior Private, so I am always there for Corps Day when the new Guard get their rifles. Some things are just important.

I have a nephew who attended the Citadel about six years ago—did three years but never finished—didn’t get the “ring.”

His freshman class,however,was all male so he was able to suffer knob year the traditional way (he’s still a little hard of hearing).
He said it was hell,but he noticed the men in the other classes that were co-ed gave him added respect.
I wish he would go back and finish.
