Beginning Monday, Jan. 31, The Citadel will no longer require masks to be worn on campus. Masks will still be required during classes taught by professors with medical accommodations.

The Citadel will temporarily require face masks to be worn in select areas on campus, effective Sunday, Jan. 9.

Due to vaccination rates and campus conditions, The Citadel will remove the mask requirements for the entire campus effective Monday, Oct. 4.

Relatives and friends will be welcomed to the college campus during The Citadel’s annual Parents’ Weekend Friday, Oct. 1 – Sunday, Oct. 3.

The postponed Homecoming recognized the milestone reunions for classes ending in ‘0 and ‘5 and, especially, members of the Class of 1970 who celebrated their 50th reunion.

Based on current conditions, The Citadel will temporarily require face coverings to be worn while inside select campus buildings.

“I am confident the Corps of Cadets will help lead us out of this pandemic; therefore, I am incentivizing cadets to get vaccinated with an overnight. Additionally, the company with the highest vaccination rate will be excused from the Commandant’s Inspection.”

“We are ready for the challenges the pandemic brings, and maintain resources and best practices used during the last academic year.”

Our year was unique compared to many institutions, as The Citadel maintained a safe, on-campus experience, while keeping COVID cases in check.
