A CONCURRENT
RESOLUTION
CONGRATULATING THE CITADEL ON THE OBSERVANCE OF
ITS SESQUICENTENNIAL.
Whereas, The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina, was
created on December 20, 1842, by the General Assembly; and
Whereas, initially the institution was known as the Citadel Academy in
Charleston but has been known officially as The Citadel since 1910; and
Whereas, The Citadel has educated and trained young men in the South
Carolina Corps of Cadets as leaders from all walks of life for the State
of South Carolina and the nation for 150 years; and
Whereas, graduates of the institution have made their mark on a broad
spectrum of professions for fifteen decades, becoming college and
university presidents, doctors, teachers, lawyers, corporate executives,
military commanders, mayors, legislators, ambassadors, governors, and
United States senators; and
Whereas, The Citadel has figured prominently in the development of the
nation's military preparedness and the strength of America's national
defense; and
Whereas, this outstanding educational institution so rich in character and
tradition is highly deserving of recognition on its sesquicentennial
observance, 1842-1992. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this
resolution, congratulates The Citadel on the observance of its
sesquicentennial.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the
chairman of the Board of Visitors of The Citadel and to the institution's
president.
