Zac Painter will enter The Citadel honors program in prestigious company when the Blacksburg High graduate heads to the military college.

“I really found a love to be in the Air Force,” she said. “I kind of wanted to branch out; I wanted to do something different.”

Thirteen graduate students at The Citadel, who are current and future leaders in education, join Kappa Delta Pi honor society.

“We are really excited about getting all of Bulldog Nation back inside Johnson Hagood Stadium in the fall.”

“I’m going to do what I have to do to play, to get on the field. And in the classroom, I’ll do what I have to do to get a degree.”

“The push for diversifying The Citadel experience begins even before cadet and students walk in the door.”

More than 230 undergraduate transfer and graduate students participated in the spring commencement events.

The Citadel announces the 61 rising-senior cadets who are now officially members of the elite military drill troupe.

The Citadel honored four of its most outstanding cadets and two distinguished faculty members during the May 8 commencement ceremonies.

In a joint commissioning ceremony, members of the Class of 2021 accepted commissions into the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps.
