THE CITADEL
THE MILITARY COLLEGE OF
SOUTH CAROLINA
ANNUAL REPORT
1986-1987
Printed Under the Direction of The
State Budget And Control Board
�'
�HIGHLIGHTS
The 1986-87 School Year was a year of significant achievement
for The Citadel as progress was made on The Citadel goals for the
1980's.
It was a difficult year for "the Cor~s of Cadets.
The Corps
was shaken by the incident of 23 October and the subsequent period
of extended adverse publ~city. Working under the close scrutiny
of the media and other critics, the Corps and its leadership
functioned in an unsettled working environment for most of the
school year. An organization that shares and overcomes adversity
habitually grows stronger, and the Corps endured and matured; by
the spring, operations were back to normal.
In the final
analysis, the overwhelming consensus from all quarters, including
some of the most vocal critics, concluded that the five cadet
offenders in the Nesmith incident were appropriately punished.
Major state and national attraction had focused on the Citadel
following the 23 October incident which, with few exceptions, was
reported accurately by the South Carolina media. The out-of-state
media extracted or compressed wire service reports and made
alarming headlines that resulted in incomplete or incorrect
stories.
The special efforts taken by the staff and faculty to
increase the Corps' awareness of the sensitivities associated with
race, religion, and national origin were productive.
Over the
year, a special understanding of the importance of living and
working in harmony was achieved by the Corps.
The difficulties
associated with the unfortunate experiences of the fall of 1986
have helped bind the Corps even closer together.
Despite the problems described above, progress was made in
all major activities of the college. Academic programs reviewed
during the year by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education (CHE) included Civil Engineering, Electrical
Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics.
All reviews were
positive.
Other CHE actions affecting The Citadel were
recommendations to increase faculty staffing of the Department of
Education and to work more closely with the College of Charleston
to resolve certain issues in the Special Education program. · An
extensive review of the curriculum of the college, with major
emphasis on the core curriculum,was completed. This document will
be reviewed in the fall of 1987 for implementation in the 1988-89
academic year. A new graduate program, a Master of Engineering
Management, was proposed to the s. C. Commission on Higher
Education.
A tentative implementing agreement has been worked
out between The Citadel and Clemson University, subject to
Commission approval for this program.
The Citadel initiated
bachelor of science degree programs in both civil and electrical
engineering in the Evening College effective fall 1987.
The
Citadel's new Honors Program will begin in the fall of 1987 with
fifteen students having been selected out of 97 applicants.
The
college received grants to host five institutes for secondary
school teachers of advanced placement courses in the disciplines
of European and U.S. History, English, Biology and French.
�Fiscal Year 1986-87 saw South Carolina's revenues fall short
of budget projections.
The Appropriations Act funded Higher
Education at only 95.9% of the CHE formula.
This was followed by
cuts of 2.6% in November and 0.8% in March.
The Citadel's share
of the two cuts was $320,000 and $96,000 respectively, for a total
mid-year cut of $416,000. The college absorbed each cut with no
direct impact on academic programs, but did have to make
significant reductions i~ support activities.
The college
completed action to purchase the former Trident Technical College
property on Lockwood Boulevard for $2 million. The College also
completed the procurement process for acquisition of a new
administrative computer system to include funding of over $683,000
of the acquisition cost by lease - purchase. The first audit of
the Athletic Department, as now required by the NCAA, was
performed by an independent audit firm with no material weaknesses
observed.
The college received the final audit report for Fiscal
Years 1983-84 and 1984-85 from the State Auditor, and the State
auditor arranged for the Fiscal Years 1985-86 and 1986-87 audits
to be performed by the independent firm of Rogers, Montgomery,
Devaney and Company of Columbia, South Carolina. The procurement
staff made continued progress toward achieving the Board of
Visitors' goals in the minority Business Enterprise Plan by
increasing purchases from minority firms from $32,615 in 1985-86
to $53,600 in 1986-87.
The college revised its system of
quarterly reviews to streamline the process, reduce paper work,
and provide the president more pertinent data for decision making.
Among a number of personnel actions taking place during the fiscal
year, two with special significance were Mrs. Kelly Higgs'
replacement of Mrs. Pam Carlson, who resigned her position as
accounting manager, and Captain William Brady's replacement of
Major John Hosey who resigned his position as Director of
Procurement Services.
The Master Plan for Facilities for The Citadel through this
century and into the 21st century has been completed. A $4 million
stadium project has been approved, and an architect-engineer firm
has been selected to do the master planning and programming
portion of this project. St. Alban's Chapel was moved from Bond
Hall to the north transept of Summerall Chapel to make room for
the new computer facility in Bond Hall.
This facility houses the
new VAX computer for The Citadel.
Highlights of the Overall
Permanent Improvement Plan for The Citadel for the years 1988
through 1993 submitted to the Commission on Higher Education
included the Renovation of Bond Hall, Barracks Renovation,
Perimeter Road Parking, Library Expansion/Renovation, Utility
Distribution System Renovation and Thompson Hall.
The dredging
and opening of the boating center channel for boating traffic,
regardless of the tides, was completed early in the spring.
Lockwood Field, the site of the old Trident Tech property, was
cleared and a permit was issued to allow The Citadel to fill in a
portion of the area that comes under the cognizance of the Coastal
Council. New bindery equipment was put into operation in the Print
Shop, along with a new complete interface for the shop's
types·etter.
�The General Mark W. Clark Campaign for The Citadel Tomorrow,
with an unprecendented $27 million goal, was announced to the
public on October 23, 1985, with pledges and commitments of $10.4
million already accounted for in the effort. By 1 July 1986, this
figure had risen to approximately $15 million, and by the end of
this fiscal year pledges and commitments to The Clark Campaign
exceeded $20 million. This historic initiative, to provide
private funds and endowments for the collegeJ is well ahead of its
goal to reach $27 million in commitments by October, 1990.
The Citadel was saddened by the deaths of Cadet Gerald P.
Hoeffner on 12 April 1987, Colonel Donald C. Bunch, Associate
Professor Emeritus and Tennis Coach on 20 April 1987, and
Lieutenant Colonel Paul J. Kingston on 22 April 1987.

�SYNOPSIS OF THE HISTORY OF THE CITADEL
The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, is
situated on a beautiful campus between Hampton Park and the Ashley
River.
From 20 December 1~42, w_h en the legislature of South
Carolina passed an act providing for the establishment of The
Citadel, to September 1922, the college was located on Marion
Square. Erected as a state arsenal after the Denmark Vesey slave
uprising in 1822; this fortress was called The Citadel. It was
garrisoned by Federal troops, then by state troops, until they
were replaced in March 1843 by 20 students who comprised the first
Corps of Cadets.
In 1833, The Arsenal in Columbia was established and it,
along with The Citadel, was a part of the South Carolina Military
Academy. In 1845, The Arsenal became a subsidiary school which
took only freshmen, and The Citadel
continued as a four year
college. The Arsenal burned in 1865 and was never reopened.
During the Civil War, 193 of the 224 alumni still living,
wore the Confederate gray, all but 20 as commissioned officers and
four as generals.
On 9 January 1861, cadets of the Corps drove back the Star of
the West from the entrance of Charleston Harbor. On 28 January
1861, the Corps was made a part of the military organization by
legislative act, and helped emplace and guard artillery on James
Island, performed guard duty in Charleston and suffered several
casual ties in engagements with ·union troops at Tul i.finny Creek .
near Yemassee Station on 7 and 9 December 1864.
The operation of the college was suspended when the buildings
on Marion Square were occupied by Federal Troops from 18 February
1865 until April 1879.
On 2 October 1882, The Citadel reopened with an enrollment of
185 cadets.
In 1910 the name of the college was changed to The
Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. The Ci.ty · Council
of Charleston, during the administration of Mayor T. T. Hyde, gave
the state the present site of the college in 1918. In the fall of
1922, the college began operating at its new location with almost
300 cadets. Today the Corps of Cadets, 2000 strong, continues as
an all-male corps, as has been the case traditionally from i.ts
establishment in 1842.

The prospects for Fall 1987 are for maximum cadet enrollment.
The expected size of the Class of 1991, which is scheduled to
report on 17 August 1987, is 650 young men. This will be the same
size as last year's class, but the number of black freshmen is
expected to be down. The application rate for this year's class
was equal in quality and increased 7 percent over the applicant
pool last year.
Evening College enrollment will probably remain
stable.
These data make clear that, despite the national decline
in young people of college age, The Citadel and its quality of
education have great attraction for undergraduate and graduate
students.
2.
Curriculum and Academic Programs
Programs reviewed by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education included
Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Computer Science and Mathematics. All reviews were positive. The
Commission took action on several recommendations made by its
education program reviewers.
Among those actions affecting The
Citadel were recommendations to increase faculty staffing of the
Education Department and to work more closely and harmoniously with
the College of Charleston to iron out problems in the Special
Education program.
The
college had
anticipated the first
requirement and has hired two professors (although one was a
replacement), and the VPAAs from the College of Charleston and The
Citadel will meet with the faculty of the Special Education
program.
An extensive review of the curriculum of the college with
major emphasis on the core curriculum has been completed. This
request has been shared with all academic departments and the
Faculty Council and will be reviewed in the fall of 1987 for
implementation in the 1988-89 academic year.

New Programs
The college did propose a new graduate program, a Master of
Engineering Management, to the S.C. Commission on Higher Education.
That body has the program under review.
In addition, the
Commission authorized The Citadel to offer the bachelor of science
degree in both civil and electrical engineering through the Evening
College. The first courses will be offered this fall.
5.
Assistance from CDF
Without the support and generosity of The Citadel Development
Foundation, the academic offerings of the college would be greatly
diminished.
CDF's grant of $1.2 million directly enriches the
heart of the college: the students and faculty. Just over 50 7. of
the CDF grant is used to fund scholarships and students grants,
with the remainder dedicated to faculty research and development,
speakers, conferences, and cadet travel.
6.
Honors Program
The Citadel's new Honors Program will open its doors in the
fall of ·1987.
Fifteen students have been selected out of 97
applicants to make up the first class of Honors students. The
average SAT score of those selected is 1241 of a possible 1600; the
average class rank is in the top 57.; and the average score on the
Test of Standard Written English is 57 out of a possible 60+ (with
6 students scoring either a 60 or a 60+).
Freshman-level Honors course sequences will be approached as
four academic areas: English, history, mathematics, and science.
Honors students will take three (or, exceptionally, four) of the
sequences offered.
During the coming year, the sophomore-level Honors courses
will be designed, and detailed plans will be finalized for fitting
the course of study of Honors students into the courses of study
for each of the academic majors offered at The Citadel.

Computer Center
After a number of years of analysis and planning, The C:Ladel
has received approval from the State to establish an on-campus
computing facility which will have the capacity to meet both
administrative and instructional computing needs. The new computer
center is being constructed in the old St. Alban's Chapel area, and
administrative services offices will be located on the fourth floor
of Bond Hall, adjacent to the new computer center. The center
itself will be ready for occupancy in late June 1987, and the
office areas will be completed in August 1987.
Estimated cost
for establishing and operating this new
facility for the first two years (1987-88 and
1988-89) is
approximately $2.6 million with $800,000 of this sum coming from
private sources (a $300,000 grant by the Self Foundation to the
Mark Clark Campaign and a $500,000 supplemental commitment by CDF).
This
new
computing
facility
will
begin
supporting
administrative functions of the College in early July of 1987 and
will provide instructional support beginning in the fall 1987
semester. It is expected that by the fall semester of 1988 this
facility will
be providing
all ~dministrative and academic
computing support for the College.
8.
Faculty
The passing away of two faculty members shocked the campus and
The Citadel family this spring.
In April, COL Donald C. Bunch,
Emeritus Associate Professor of Business Administration and the
college tennis coach, died unexpectedly. Two days later, LTC Paul
J. Kingston, Associate Professor of Political Science, died after a
long illness. Both professors were exceptionally able teachers and
mentors, and their absence will be noticeable.
Lieutenant Colonels John A. Riley, Associate Professor of
English, and James A. Browning, Associate Professor of Chemistry,
along with MAJ Lynn V. DeMille, USA, Ret., Assistant Professor of
Modern Languages, retired after many years of dedicated service to
the college. All three received emeriti status.
The C.A. Medberry Award, in honor of the late Colonel
Medberry, was awarded to COL Gerald L. Runey, Professor of Biology.

Following state-wide competition, the college received grants
to host five institutes for secondary school teachers of advanced
placement courses in the disciplines of european and US history,
English, biology, and French. The college conducted for the third
year a similar institute, under the auspices of the National
Science Foundation a mathematics course for middle school teachers.
A similar CHE award for physical science teachers went to a course
sponsored by the college's Physics and Education Departments.
The
English Department will host the Charleston Area Writers Project.
B.
Biology
The Department of Biology offers an undergraduate _program of
studies leading to the Bachelor · of
Science degree
artd in
conjunction with the Department of Education, offers the Masters of
Education (M.Ed.) degree with both a major and minor in biology.
Enrollment in the department's undergraduate program fluctuates
between 100-150 students with 16 graduating in May.
Enrollment in
the department's graduate program has increased slightly with
approximately 20-25 students actively working towards the M.Ed.
degree.
For the past eighteen years, the department has offered (4?103) Introduction to Botany and (47-104) Introduction to Zoology as
the entry level courses for both the biology major and the nonmajor seeking to complete the eight hours of science required for
graduation.
Starting in the fall semester of the 1987-88 academic
year, the department will offer a two-semester General Biology
sequence for both the major and the non-major. This change will
eliminate the duplication of content found in the old sequence and
facilitate a broader coverage of both lecture and iaboratory
material. In addition, this change will br i ng our introductory
courses into line with a large majority of institutions in the
southeast.
LTC Emory S. Crosby, Jr., was granted a sabbatical leave
during the spring semester of the 1986-87 academic year. Professor
Crosby, using the laboratory facilities of both The Citadel and
Clemson University, has studied methods of controlling several
fungal diseases affecting camellias. MAJ Frank Seabury was awarded
a sabbatical leave for the 1987-88 academic year to work in the
electron microscopy laboratory of
Dr. Charles
Mims at the
University of Georgia.
COL General L. Runey was awarded the
Medbery Award for Outstanding Teaching during the past year.
18
�The biology faculty have remained professionally active. More
than seventy percent of the biology faculty have received either
GDF Research Grants or grants from outside sources during the 198687 academic year. For the second consecutive year, the department
received a grant from the State Department of Education to teach a
graduate
course
for
high
school biology teachers seeking
certification to teach Advanced Placement Biology. The course was
offered during the summer and was team taught by COL Robert E.
Baldwin and Majors B.J. Kelley and T. Clark Bowman.
During the 1986-87 academic year, the Department of Biology,
with GDF support, invited the following ·biologists to speak to the
faculty and student members of the Bio-Cid Club.

In excess of 35% of The Citadel's undergraduate students are
currently
majoring
in
business
administration
with
131
undergraduate and 14 graduate degrees awarded at the May 1987
Corrnnencement.
Dr. Krishna Dhir, formerly Associate Professor of Management and
Director of the Master of International Management Program at the
University of Denver, has been selected as the new head of the
Department of Business Administration and will join the faculty in
August of 1987. Dr. Thomas Kindel, formerly Associate Professor of
Marketing at the University of Montevallo, has been hired as an
Associate Professor of Business Administration .
Major J. ·Michael Alford has been awarded tenure and promoted to
Associate Professor, and CMDR Richard T. Pokryfka has been promoted
to Professor. The entire Citadel family was saddened by the deaths
of Colonel Marion S. Lewis, Professor Emeritus, and Colonel Donald
C. Bunch; Associate Professor Emeritus.
The MBA advisory board, comprised of distinguished members of the
Charleston business community, has been active throughout this
academic year, and MBA enrollment continues to increase. Improving
the overall quality and reputation of our MBA Program continues as
a high priority for the department.
Departmental faculty have received various national and regional
professional recognitions. CMDR Richard T. Pokryfka continued his
work on
a $450,000,
multi-year research contract _from the
Department of Defense to assess specific implementations of local
area network architectures and relational database machines in a
military environment. LTC Spivey has performed research in the
Republic of Panama under a Fulbright Fellowship and has served as
Visiting Professor of Small Business at the University of Panama.
LTC Robert L. King is serving as vice president for finance and
treasurer of the Academy of Marketing Sciences and executive
secretary of the American Academy of Advertising.
The department has further extended its international perspective
during the year. Under an informal faculty exchange program with
the Academy of Economics in Wroclaw, Poland, the department was
visited by Dr. Maria Myszkowska. In exchange, MAJ Dorothy P. Moore
enjoyed a period of research and lecturing in Poland at the close
of the spring term.
Dr. Robert L. King attended international
20
�conferences in Singapore and Taiwan and continued his research
activities at the Academy of Economics in Wroclaw, Poland.
Papers and invited lectures were presented by LTC King, CPT Donald
Sparks, COL Harvey Wittschen, and MAJ Dorothy P. Moore.
D.
Chemistry
The Chemistry
Department is undergoing some significant
changes. LTC James A. Browning will retire on 30 June after 35
years on the faculty.
Dr. James R. Blanton from Texas A & M
University will fill his position. Dr. Lois A. Dixon resigned in
the fall and will be replaced by Dr. Thomas H. Richardson. Dr.
Gregory A. Brewer resigned in the spring to accept a position at
Catholic University; a replacement will be sought in the fall. The
department's custodian and laboratory manager, Mr. Darryl D. Skow,
will retire on 30 June, and replacement is presently being sought.
In addition to these staff changes, the department made some
significant curriculum changes. The effect of these changes is to
make our two degree curricula more flexible and more responsive to
the need of students in a liberal arts college.
During the years Doctors Brewer and May continued their
significant research.
Dr. Brewer presented two papers at the
national American Chemical Society meeting in Denver.
Dr. May
presented a paper at the national meeting of the American Society
of Civil Engineers in New Orleans.
Both professors were the
recipient of CDF grants during the year, Dr. May having been
designated a CDF Faculty Fellow.
The department was the recipient of a generous CDF grant for
the purchase of equipment. With these funds, a Varian Instruments
Model 3400 Gas Chromatograph and a Perkin Elmer Model 1430 Infrared
Spectrophotometer were purchased.
Both instruments will be used
for instruction and for research.
Another CDF grant permitted us to invite Dr. Russell S. Drago
of the University of Florida to visit the department for a whole
day and to present a major seminar to students, faculty, and
guests. Dr. Drago is an internationally known inorganic chemist.
Cadet Keith Harbol, a senior B.S. chemistry major, presented a
paper at the South Carolina Academy of Science meeting and was
given an award for the best undergraduate paper at the meeting.
The paper reported on research done last summer at Clemson
University under the direction of Dr. Darryl DesMarteau. Cadet
Harbol will enter graduate school in chemistry at the University of
Utah in the fall.
The department has three students graduating this year--one
will enter graduate school in chemistry, one will enter law school,
and the third will enter the Air Force. After graduation, we will
21
�have 24 majors of whom 9 are pursuing
seeking the B.A. degree.

Civil Engineering
During the year, the Civil Engineering program was evaluated
and given full approval by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education.
The program quality was rated as excellent. The
consultant team responded positively to a formal study prepared by
the Civil Engineering Department and recommended a reevaluation of
the State Formula for Appropriations as being unfair apparently to
engineering faculty at undergraduate colleges such as The Citadel.
A progress report to the Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology (ABET) was also prepared and submitted to extend the
accreditation of the Civil Engineering program to 1991.
A departmental curriculum study was conducted and several
important revisions . made.
These adjustments include the addition
of a freshman year course in Engineering Design and Analysis, a
junior course in Modeling of Civil Engineering Systems, and a
senior year Comprehensive Project
Design
course
in either
Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Structural
Engineering, or Engineering Practice.
The
requirement for
surveying and thermodynamics instruction is being reevaluated.
Approximately $80,000 in funding by The Citadel Development
Foundation was provided and expended for additional state-of-theart academic laboratory equipment procurement. With this funding,
the CDF continued to account for significant enhancements of the
Civil Engineering program.
The student chapter, American Society of Civil Engineers, won
a national ASCE Certificate of Commendation Award for the 1986-87
academic year, the eleventh such distinction in as many years. CPT
Kenneth B. Brannan is faculty advisor, and CPT Russell H. Stout is
assisting.
Under the direction of the faculty advisor, Dr. Harry
C. Saxe, the Sigma Iota Delta fraternity has completed and
submitted The Citadel's application for a chapter of Chi Epsilon,
the national Civil Engineering honorary fraternity.
LTC Charles Lindbergh delivered
the engineering keynote
address to the Third United States Conference on Earthquake
Engineering. Many students and faculty participated in this major
event attended by more than 520 scientists and engineers from
throughout the United States and 33 foreign countries.
Colonel
Lindbergh
was
also
responsible
for
all conference local
arrangements and was awarded its Honor Award by the Earthquake
Engineering Research Institute for his service. COL Thomas C.
Evans was elected president of the Southeastern Section, American
Society for Engineering Education.
LTC Thomas J. Anessi was
elected president, Eastern Branch, South Carolina Section, American
Society of Civil Engineers.
22
�A Multihazards Engineering Research Institute was started with
fund support from the U.S. Geological Survey. Colonel Lindbergh is
president, Mr. W. Alex Dallis is executive director, and Mr.
Richard Kent is director of engineering.
The MERI is to provide
wind, seismic, and coastal engineering technology to South Carolina
and its Lowcountry region.
Building
code development and
seismic/wind strengthening of schools are being given highest
priority.
A program proposal was developed and approved to offer the
full civil and electrical engineering undergraduate programs during
the evenings. Like the regular day programs, the evening programs
may be completed within a four-year period. The new program starts
in August 1987.
Two new faculty joined the department:
Dr. Kenneth P.
Brannan,
Environmental
Engineering from Virginia Polytechnic
J. Anessi,
Institute & State University,
and
Dr.
Thomas
Geotechnical Engineering from the University of Dayton.
CPT
Russell H. Stout, Jr., was promoted to associate professor and
raised in rank to major.
:r.
Education
The Department
of Education was very active this year
examining and revising its graduate curriculum.
The department
compared its graduate programs with others and also solicited
advice from practitioners in the areas for which we prepare
students to determine if the experiences and courses given to
students were the most appropriate.
In addition, the accrediting
agencies with
which we deal, the National Council for the
Accrediting of Teacher Education and the State of South Carolina
approval process
through the
National Association of State
Directors of Teacher Education and Certification standards, have
both modified their standards; therefore, a reexamination of
programs in light of those changes was necessary.
The result of this work is a new graduate curriculum approved
by the Graduate Council in February which will take us through the
next few years. In each of our progr~s, new courses and new
requirements have been added.
It is the belief of the Department
of Education that the new curriculum adds significantly to the
quality of our graduate programs and puts our graduates in an even
better position than they have been in the past to assume
leadership positions.
The department sought and hired an additional faculty member
for 1987-88. Dr. Donald E. Beers, a 1967 Citadel graduate, will be
an associate professor of education next year. Dr. Beers completed
a doctorate at the University of Tennessee and has most recently
been Deputy Superintendent of Schools in Charleston County. He
brings to the Department of Education expertise in the areas of
curriculum, research, statistics, and educational administration.
23
�Enrollment in the department has increased during the year.
The Department of Education had approximately 872 students enrolled
in the graduate courses in the Fall of 1986.
The Education faculty was active throughout the year. They
were involved in a variety of professional activities including
faculty development workshops and institutes, presenting papers,
publishing articles, conducting a Reading Conference, and service
to area schools including participation in the Teacher Cadet
Program of the South Carolina Teacher Recruitment Task Force.
Quality is the watchword of the Department of Education. In
order to maintain it and to enhance it, the department has been
active in curriculum revision, professional and scholarly activity,
participation in statewide activities, and most import, outstanding
teaching. The department looks back at the year with pride and
forward to the challenges of 1987-88.
G.
Electrical Engineering
One hundred and fifty-six students majored in electrical
engineering this year.
This is an 18 percent decrease in
enrollment over the previous year.
Twenty-four cadets and eight
veteran students were graduated in May 1987.
Several seniors are
expected to meet graduation requirements in August.
The South
Carolina Commission
on Higher Education has
authorized the offering of the degrees of Bachelor of Science .in
Civil Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering
in The Citadel Evening College beginning August 1987. The response
to early announcements and advertisements has been encouraging.
The Twenty-First Annual Razor Lecture was presented by Dr.
John W. Peeples, Citadel 1971, Director
of Operations, NCR
Engineering and Manufacturing, Columbia, S.C.
Dr. Peeples heads
the most profitable of the 22 manufacturing units of NCR.
His
professional accomplishments
are a
source of pride to the
department and an inspiration to our students.
The Verson Foundation Fund reached a level that will support
scholarship grants to electrical engineering majors of $2,000 per
year.
These scholarships honor the
founding head
of the
department, COL Charles Thurston Razor, and were established by
Melvin Verson, Citadel 1948.
-
The Power Engineering Educators and Industry Group of the
Southeastern Electric Exchange has established a scholarship grant
of $1,000 for a student planning a career in power.
This
scholarship is made available to our students in recognition of the
excellent power education program
at
The
Citadel
and in
appreciation of the contribution of Professor Harold W. Askins,
Jr., to the Modern Power Systems Analysis course sponsored annually
24
�by the Southeastern Electric Exchange at Auburn University.
The faculty continues to build a record of scholarly and
professional achievement. Professor Askins was again invited to be
one of the principal lecturers in a Modern Power Systems Analysis
course at Auburn University. He attended a technical conference of
the Southeastern Electric Exchange , in New Orleans as a guest of
South Carolina Electric and Gas Company, and he as appointed an
IEEE Program Evaluator to assist the Accreditation Board for
Engineering and Technology (ABET) in the evaluation of electrical
engineering programs.
Associate Professor Louis D. Dornetto has
been promoted to professor of Electrical Engineering, effective
August 1987.
Professor Dornetto received a CDF Outstanding
Teaching Award for 1986-87. Assistant Professor Jack A. Stinson,
Jr., has been promoted to associate professor of Electrical
Engineering, effective August 1987. Professor Stinson received the
Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in August 1986.
All faculty
members continue to perform as dedicated teachers, conscientious
counselors,
valued
members
of the academic community, and
professional engineers.
H.
English
During the current year, the English Department maintained its
steady progress in terms of teaching, scholarship, and community
service. The reputation of our teaching faculty has continued to
attract a fair share of majors, the number rising to 87. The
faculty remains heavily engaged in every phase of scholarly
activity.
Both the freshman and sophomore committees engaged in revision
of their sequence courses:
Composition and Literature and Major
British Writers.
Standard course descriptions have been produced
that reflect these changes.
In preparation for next year, the
Curriculum Committee has reorganized the sophomore courses and
revised the sequencing of several courses in B and C groups. The
Hiring Committee successfully completed a search for two new
faculty: Dr. Peter Mailloux (Ph.D., Berkeley) and Dr. Margaret M.
Lally (Ph.D., Case Western Reserve).
For the first time, the
department has appointed, under Dr. Robert A. White, a standing
Committee on Graduate Affairs, that worked with the Graduate
Director to finalize the new M.A. proposal.
The Tenure and
Promotion Committee gave favorable recommendations for tenure and
promotion to Associate Professor to CPT David G. Allen and for
promotion to Professor for both LTC Philip W. Leon and MAJ Robert
A.
White.
All
recommendations
were
unanimously
and
enthusiastically forwarded to CATPA which concurred in the cases of
Allen and Leon. CPT David S. Shields emerged as the faculty member
who scored highest for teaching effectiveness, but he has another
year to complete before attaining eligibility for a college
teaching award.
On
the
scholarly
front,
the department
25
has nine books in
�press; each of the following has a book that will appear before
Christmas 1987:
Brennan, Lally, Mailloux, Leonard, Rembert, and
Rhodes, while
Professor Tucker
has three
books in press.
Professors White and Allen have also received a provisional
acceptance for their collection of conference papers from the
Syracuse University Press.
Two other professors are nearing
completion of books. During the current year, Professor Tucker
published his monograph with The Citadel Press (Coram Paribus:
Images of the Common Lawyer in Romantic and Victorian Literature),
and Celia C. Halford published her novel (The Treasure of Pawley's
Island). Dr. Shields' edition of Carolina, or the Planter, by
George Ogilvie, was published as a supplementary volume of The
Southern Literary Journal.
English faculty
also delivered
seventeen scholarly
papers at various regional and national
conferences, one each by White, B. Allen, O'Neil, Rembert, Edwards,
and Tenney; two each by D. Allen, Leonard, Rhodes, and Shields; and
three by Tucker.
Departmental faculty also published three
articles and eight reviews, not to mention three radio broadcasts
and two televised interviews.
As a measure of sharing their
scholarship, the following faculty also delivered papers for the
new Symposium series:
Tucker, B. Allen, D. Allen, Edwards,
Leonard, Tenney, Rembert, Halford, Tucker, and Eesley (from Modern
Languages).
The department has also
excelled
in
other
forms of
scholarship.
For example, David G. Allen won a $2500 grant from
the South Carolina Arts Commission for his leadership of the
Lowcountry Writers program that brought three authors to this
campus during the academic year. Professor Holbein coordinated the
activities for
the English Seminar program on Shakespeare's
Birthday. The address was delivered by Professor Phoebe S. Spinrad
of Ohio State University. Professors White and Allen have already
begun the extensive preparations required for the second Medieval
and Renaissance conference next year.
Professor Suzanne Edwards
was elected President of the Victorians Institute, Professor Rhodes
continues as Vice President of the Southeastern Nineteenth-Century
Studies Association, and Professor Tucker served this year as the
President of the South Carolina Association of Departments of
English.
Succeeding our own Professor O'Neil, Professor Rembert
assumed the Secretary/Treasurer's position of the Southeastern
Eighteenth-Century Studies Association and edited three issues of
the newsletter. Professor Edwards brought out the first edition of
the new journal Nineteenth-Century Studies.
Professor James
Leonard has assumed the editorship of the Mark Twain Circular, the
newsletter of the Mark Twain Circle of the Modern Language
Association, while Professor Tenney continues his editorship of the
Mark Twain Journal.
In the service area, Jack Rhodes has assumed the Directorship
of the new Citadel Honors Program and has worked steadily towards
the initiation of this program in the Fall semester of 1987.
Professor Holbein served as Adviser-in-Chief of The Citadel Inn of
Court, and Professor Tucker organized for the Inn the introduction
of a new Humanities Institute that met in September at Bonneau
26
�Ferry and in February at Camp St. Christopher.
He ran the LSAT
Preparation Workshop and worked with eight cadets who participated
in the National Intercollegiate Mock Trial Tournament in Des
Moines, Iowa, in which The Citadel placed fourth. Professor Tucker
is a member of the Planning Cormnittee for the National Tournament.
Professor Rhodes served as a ~arker at the Advanced Placement
meeting at the Educational Testing Service program in Princeton,
N.J.
Professors Holbein and Edwards served on the Steering
Committee for the Charleston Area Writing Project that has found a
semi-permanent home at The Citadel, and Professor Edwards has now
twice proven successful in bringing the Advanced Placement Workshop
for English Teachers to our campus. Professor Holbein served as a
marker for the state program on the Education _Entrance Essay
required of all teacher candidates.
Five professors have earned research funds from The Citadel
Development Foundation, and Professor Tucker has been granted a
sabbatical for 1987-88.
Professor Leon was also awarded a
sabbatical but had to turn it down in order to accept a post at
West Point where he will serve for three-to-five years as Senior
Advisor on Reserve Affairs to the Superintendent of the U.S.
Military Academy.
After twenty-two years of service to The
Citadel, Professor John Riley has decided to retire and has been
awarded emeritus status. Professor Tony N. Redd will be serving as
Acting Head of the English Department for the coming academic year.

History
By stressing the importance of cause and effect in the
cyclical growth and decline of civilization, the History Department
attempts to acquaint the student with his heritage and give him an
insight into the problems of the modern world. We encourage the
use of essays in testing so that our graduates may learn to
organize their thoughts and to express them with clarity. We are
happy to report that this department thus prepares its graduates
for success in many fields; they range across the career spectrum
from medical student to bishop.
Our faculty maintained its usual reputation for superior
performance.
In pursuit of the department's effort to support the
concept of an undergraduate college in which the faculty assume
particular responsibility for the development of their charges,
several members of this department served as advisors for cadet
groups.
The entire department demonstrated its scholarly bent
through research activities of which several publications were the
result. Three professors currently have books under contract. The
History Forum enriched the department's offerings by serving as
host for guest speakers.
In April, with Majors W.B. Moore, Jr.,
and J.F. Tripp as co-directors, The Conference on the South brought
another group of scholars distinguished in their fields to the
campus.
27
�COL L.H. Addington was appointed a CDF Fellow for the third
time, and COL W.G. Nichols for the first time . COL W.L. Harris
assisted the Political Science Department in the organization of
the Conference on Latin American Affairs. COLD. Porch spent the
year as Visiting Professor at the Naval War College where his
performance was so well received that he was invited to stay for a
second year. I am pleased t9 report that he declined the offer and
is returning to The Citadel. LTC J.W. Gordon published The Other
Desert War: British Special Forces in North Africa 1940-1943. MAJ
Tripp was promoted to professor.
Unfortunately, CPT J.P. Thomas
resigned unexpectedly in the middle of the year; he will be
replaced in the fall by CPT Jane C. Bishop, a splendid lecturer
whose scholarly record
and
academic
credentials
are very
impressive, indeed.

Mathematics and Computer Science
The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers a
wide variety of courses in an effort to meet the demands of a
rapidly changing age of technology.
Service courses are offered
for the entire college as well as degree programs in mathematics
and computer science.
The number of majors in mathematics and computer science
decreased to approximately 150 students who were pursuing degrees
from among the seven degree options offered.
The number of
undergraduates receiving a bachelor's degree was 54 in May. 1987.
Several others expect to complete requirements by August.
In conjunction with the Department of Education, graduate
courses for middle and secondary teachers continue to be offered in
the evening along with evening undergraduate courses for the
Evening College program. Professors Hoyle and Hurd taught courses
for middle/secondary teachers which were funded by the State
Department of Education through the Educational Improvement Act.
The department received a $36,000 grant from the Commission on
Higher Education to fund a pilot project designed to improve the
mathematics teaching skills of middle school and secondary general
mathematics teachers. Professor Denig taught the third of the
three-year program for 7-9 grade teachers which is part of the NSF
sponsored South Carolina Professional Development Program for
science and mathematics teachers.
As in the past, The Citadel Development Foundation has
enhanced the department with grants to
individuals and the
department.
Professor Stephen Comer continued as a CDF Fellow
while Professors Cohn, Durgun, Greim, Hurd, Riedel, Trautman, and
Zahid all received research grants.
Thanks to a CDF grant, the
department enjoyed another outstanding year of colloquia and
seminars which provided stimuli for both students and faculty.
As evidenced by the number of research grants mentioned above,
the scholarly activity in the department continued to increase.
28
�Professors Comer and Cohn gave papers at the International Congress
of Mathematicians, and Professor Greim presented a paper at an
international meeting in Czechoslovakia. Papers have been accepted
for publication from Professors Cohn, Comer, Greim, Hurd, and
Riedel.
Fifteen of the eighteen faculty members attended a
professional meeting or workshop in 1986-87.
Two new professors completed tqeir first year at The Citadel
in 1986-87.
Professors Hughes Hoyle, who came from the University
of North Carolina in Greensboro, received his Ph.D. from the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in topology. Professor
David Trautman, who came to The Citadel from Ohio State University,
received his Ph.D. from the University of Missouri in functional
analysis. Dr. Lanita Spivey was a temporary assistant professor
for 1986-87.
Professor Andre Deutz will be returning to the department from
Cornell University, where he spent a one-year leave of absence on a
DANA Foundation Grant to work on a Master's degree in Computer
Science.
Professor Ingraham will return
to the department
following a sabbatical leave spring semester, 1987. The department
regrets to announce the resignation of CPT Carlie Coats who took a
position in industry.
K.
Modern Languages
During the past year, our department has made special efforts
The
to provide varied educational opportunities to students.
faculty have been dedicating themselves to seeing that their
students use more of the foreign language in the classroom.
We are continually making plans to make more effective usage
of the Language Laboratory under the directorship of MAJ Joseph F.
Gundel. Thanks to increased interest in foreign languages in the
state and nation, we are also looking forward to developing the
language skills of recent high school graduates who will have had
language learning experience in the high school.
These new
directions of the department have already resulted in more language
exposure in the elementary and intermediate programs, an increase
in the enrollment in the upper-level course, an increase of majors,
and an increase in cadets' professionalism. Since the institution
of our study abroad programs, over fifty cadets have studied in
France and Spain, ably directed by Captains O. Robert Emory and
Anne Eesley. Language majors have tutored as volunteers as Burke
High School.
Cadets P. Foster and M. McAnally taught a course in
Spanish to children at James Simmons Elementary School.
Cadet
Cottros read
a paper
at the First National Conference on
Undergraduate Research; and Cadets Campbell, Wingfield, and Cottros
also
had
their
research
papers discussed in one of two
presentations by CPT Christopher R. McRae at the annual meeting of
the North and South Carolina Association of Linguistics.
Professional activities of the faculty are also on the
increase. In addition to faculty activities already mentioned, CPT
29
�McRae did research in France. LTC J. Harmann Pieper, III, visited
France; and MAJ Grant B. Staley read a paper at the Asociacion
Internacional de Hispanistas in Berlin. CPT Emory was president of
the Southeast American Society for French 17th Century Studies and
chaired the proceedings of the conference which was held at The
Citadel last fall. CPT Eesley read a paper at the Kentucky Foreign
Language Conference at Lexington and COL D.D. Johnson was elected
chair of the Minor and Median Romance Languages Section of the
South Atlantic Modern Language Association and read a paper at the
North American Catalan
Society
conference
held
in Tampa.
Professors Emory, Johnson, McRae, and Staley all had articles or
reviews in print this year; and most notable was CPT Eesley's
article published in Celestinesca.
CDF support made possible many departmental activities, such
as the department's
hosting
a
meeting
with
the Circulo
Hispanoamericano of Charleston, as well as many of the cadets' and
professors' activities previously described.
The CDF is an
integral part of the department's development and has inspired us
to seek outside funding for our activities. For example, CPT McRae
won his second grant from the National Endowment of the Humanities
to pursue his studies of 19th Century French Literature at
Berkeley.
The
faculty
continues
to
play
key roles in campus
responsibilities--notable are Professors Pieper
and Emory as
company academic advisors, Staley as chairman of the Fine Arts
Committee, LTC Frank D. Frohlich as a member of CATPA, and Pieper
as faculty advisor to the Catholic Parish.
During the year, the department and some of the staff reached
certain milestones. CPT McRae received a grant to teach a special
graduate course in French Civilization and Culture last summer.
Professors McRae and Staley taught our first regular graduate-level
courses last spring. In June, under a state grant, CPT McRae with
adjunct professor Ellen Friedrich taught · an Advanced Placement
course to high school teachers.
The year was also marked by personal achievements. LTC
Frohlich was awarded the Outstanding Teaching Award; Captains Emory
and McRae were granted tenure and promoted to associate professors;
Ellen Friedrich, who was an adjunct professor last year, has been
appointed to a one-year term as visiting instructor. MAJ Lynn V.
DeMille retired after twenty-one years' service to the Citadel and
received emeritus status. We will miss him and wish him well.

AAHPERD in Las Vegas, Nev.
MAJ Wilson served on the Southern
District AAHPERD Health Division Executive Board.
LT John S.
Carter has completed all of the course work for the doctoral
degree. LT Carter cataloged all the departmental library holdings
and generated the order for the special $10,000 departmental
acquisitions. LT Carter coordinated the pre-matriculation healthrelated fitness testing and the upperclass remediation program.
Mr. Eddie Teague retired at the end of the school year 1986-87 but
will remain on the faculty as an adjunct professor. The department
feels fortunate to have a man of his caliber with highly regarded
career experiences in physical education and sport.
The department hosted Mrs. Heather Ward at a seminar on
Aerobic Conditioning, Dr. Cass Ryan at a seminar on Nutrition, and
Mr. Don Newcombe at a campus-wide seminar on alcohol abuse. COL
Ezell hosted a group afflicted with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
COL
John P. Smyth hosted a CDF workshop for heads of physiGal education
departments at our sister institutions of higher education in South
Carolina.
The department adopted the new NCATE guidelines which will
require all subsequent teacher education majors to graduate with a
minimum of a 2.5 G.P.A.
The department has a senior seminar
requirement for determining exit competencies of all majors. Cadet
Russell L. Campbell was recognized as winner of the Keith E.
Hamilton Award as outstanding physical education major.
He
received similar recognition from the department for the National
Association for Sport and Physical Education.

�Chapter in 1986-87.
Cadet James M. Uschelbec won the award for
Outstanding Intramural Athletic Officer, and Cadet Stephen J.
Bontell was
selected as the Outstanding Intramural Athletic
Sergeant. Cadet Thomas Y. Barton, III, won the award for the
Outstanding Intramural Athlete of 1986-87. "A" Company won the
Regimental Championship and the accompanying Board of Visitors'
Trophy and Plaque.
The Citadel
Sports Clubs were successful in presenting
opportunities for
cadet participation
in 15 intercollegiate
activities.
The Lacrosse Club won eight of their nine games,
losing only to a Division I ACC team; and the Pistol Club again
brought national recognition to The Citadel with one All-American
and a National Championship in the ROTC Division and second in the
overall Open Championships.
The Sports Club Banquet featured
representatives of each club
capturing well
the spirit of
participation and opportunity which separates club sports from the
world of intercollegiate scholarship athletics.
The banquet
attendees were inspired by an outstanding talk by MGEN James A.
Grimsley, Jr.
There is sufficient interest to organize two new
clubs during the 1987-88 school year--a Volleyball Club and a
Swimming Club.
K.
Physics
This 1986-87
year for
the Department
of Physics
highlighted
by
several
outstanding
events,
honors,
acquisitions, including:
was
and
1. The 1987 Distinguished Physics Lectures, a series of
public lectures and informal discussions on General Relativity
presented by Professor Kip S. Thorne. Dr. Thorne is the William R.
Keenan
Professor
of
Theoretical Astrophysics at California
Institute of Technology. He is a co-author of "Gravitation," the
text from which most of the younger generation of physicists and
astronomers learned general relativity theory, and he developed
much of the mathematical formalism by which astrophysicists analyze
t he generation of gravitational waves by highly nonlinear cosmic
sources. Dr. Thorne's two public lectures at The Citadel on 21 and
22 April were "Black Holes, White Holes, Worm Holes, and Tunnels
through Hyperspace;" and "Gravitation Waves: A New Window onto the
Universe."
2. Establishment of a federally funded summer course for
secondary school teachers. This workshop was a cooperative effort
between Dr. Patrick R. Briggs of the Physics Department and Dr.
William R. Williams of the Education Department who jointly
developed the course and taught it through the period of 14-31 July
1986.
Funded by a $26,200 federal grant from the Commission on
Higher Education and Public Law 98-377, the workshop was titled
"Design and Use of Physical Science Experiments in Secondary
Schools" and had 20 participants selected from 56 applicants.
Experiments were designed by the workshop directors, and the
32
�equipment was constructed in the Physics Department shop by Mr.
Braxton Simmons, electronics technician.
The workshop will be
repeated in the summer of 1987.
3.
Notification by NSF that the Physics Department at The
Citadel is to participate in a $170,000, three-year grant for a
four-college
automated
photoelectric
telescope designed for
astronomical training and research with Dr. Saul J. Adelman of the
Physics Department as co-investigator.
The 30-inch, reflecting
telescope is of international quality and will be accessed for
research by the College of Charleston, University of Nevada (Las
Vegas), and Villanova University, as well as The Citadel.
The
grant period is from 15 April 1987 to 30 September 1990, and the
grant provides $50,000 for astronomy research and $20,000 for
instrumentation during the first year, with an additional $20,000
in cost-matching funds coming from the four participating schools.
In each of the second and third years, the grant provides $50,000
for research.
4. The award of a three-year, $60,000 grant by the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration to Dr. Saul J. Adelman as
principal investigator on a project for analyses of elemental
abundances in stellar objects. This grant, entitled "Photographies
Region Elemental Analyses," extends through the period 1 June 1987
to 31 May 1990 and includes $24,000, cost-matching funds for
computer equipment.
5. Two special projects for Lowcountry high school students
using Physics Department facilities at The Citadel:
a.
Students in the physical science class at Rivers
Middle School visited The Citadel on a monthly basis to perform
special experiments designed for them by department members.
b.
Coastal Carolina MENSA met thrice weekly in the
Physics Department to prepare for nationwide "Odyssey of the Mind"
competition for high school students. Their construction project-a structure of 1/8-inch, balsa wood strips designed to support
maximum load
within narrowly
prescribed dimensions--won . the
regional competition with area students representing both public
and private schools.
6. Acquisition of several major equipment items for the basic
physics laboratories. With CDF funds, the department purchased 18
Fluke 37 bench portable digital multimeters, a very versatile
device used in many basic laboratory experiments.
CDF funds and
general ledger account funds were combined to purchase four (4)
Tektronix 2230
oscilloscopes
for
use
in
the Electronics
Instrumentation course and in Advanced Laboratory. An occupational
safety hazard was arrested by a special allocation to purchase a
set of 18 new induction coil power supplies with high voltage
shield.
Members of
the department
were actively
33
engaged in research
�during the year.
Dr. Joel Berlinghieri held a summer research
fellowship at the Medical University of South Carolina where he
devised flash
photolysis techniques
in transient absorption
spectroscopy associated with a project directed by Dr. John W.
Ledbetter of the Department of Biochemistry at MUSC. Dr. Patrick
R. Briggs consulted with the Applied Physics Laboratory of Johns
Hopkins University and developed software for reduction of data
from the IMP-80 satellite.
Dr. Saul J. Adelman published ten
papers during the year and had five more in press, the culmination
of the previous two years as a research associate at NASA Goddard
Space Flight Center while on sabbatical leave and leave of absence.
Dr. Peter J. Rembiesa published a major article in theoretical
physics on renormalization techniques in quantum electrodynamics,
and he presented a paper at the 1987 spring meeting of the American
Physical Society.
He was also tenured and promoted to associate
professor with the military rank of major.
Dr. Joel C. Berlinghieri was president of the Faculty Council
during the 1986-87 year and delivered the commencement address
during the 1986 summer school graduation. Dr. Mary Morton-Gibson,
who temporarily replaced Dr. Adelman while he was on leave,
accepted a position at Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania.
N.
Political Science
The Department of Political Science offers a flexible major
which permits each student to concentrate his study in the area of
his interest while at the same time affording him an opportunity to
obtain a broad liberal arts education that will enrich his life,
acquaint him with the rights and responsibilities of citizenship,
and prepare him for a satisfying career.
Graduates of the department enter military service, public
administration, law, graduate and professional schools, and federal
and state government.
In order to prepare graduating seniors for
graduate and law schools and professional employment, seminars and
workshops are conducted annually on the Foreign Services, Graduate
Record Examination, Law School Admission Test, and Civil Service
employment.
The first major revision of the department's curriculum in the
last twenty years was implemented in the Fall of 1985 and continues
to be well received by the students.
This revision brought our
courses into line with recent trends in the discipline while
maintaining the fundamentals of a sound liberal arts education.
Basically, it develops three alternative areas of concentration:
(A) American Government and Politics, (B) International Politics
and Military Affairs, and (C) Law and Criminal Justice. The smooth
implementation of this restructuring of the Political Science
curriculum is a major accomplishment of the department.
Extracurricular
activities
are
34
an
important
part
of
our
�students' education.
For the first time last year, several
Political Science students attended the Fourth Annual Conference
with Former Secretaries of State sponsored by the Southern Center
for International Studies.
As is customary, the department
supported the conferences held at the Military, Naval, and Air
Force Academies by sending student representatives. With the help
of their faculty advisor, cadets are required to engage in
extensive preparations before attending these conferences. Student
organizations such as Pi Sigma Alpha (Political Science Honor
Society), Sigma Iota Rho (International Honor Society), Political
Science Club, South Carolina Student Legislature and the Debate
Team all received strong support from the departmental faculty.
A new initiative this year was a weekend workshop for freshman
Political Science majors.
The workshop included speakers from a
wide variety of areas and gave the students an opportunity to
discuss broadly based social and political issues. The twenty-five
freshman Political Science majors who participated were selected
because of
their high
SAT scores
and performance in the
Introduction to Political Science course.
The Internship program continues to be extremely successful
and provides students an opportunity to apply what they learn in·
the classroom in various governmental agencies.
During 1986-87
students served internships with the City of Charleston Mayor's
Office, the Charleston County Administrator's Office, the City of
Charleston Police Department, the 9th Circuit Solicitor's Office,
the Medical University of S.C. Administrator's Office, and the City
of Charleston's Crime Laboratory.
The Departmental Speaker Seminars brought important political
leaders and scholars to the campus.
Ambassador Nick Veliotes,
former Ambassador
to Egypt
and Jordan, discussed U.S.-Arab
relations.
Ambassador William B. Jones, former Ambassador to
Haiti, talked about American Foreign Policy in the Carribean Basin
and met with the Afro-American Society on campus.
Ambassador
Richard Walker, former Ambassador to Korea, talked with students in
one class on his experiences in dealing with the media.
Professor
Hal Elliot Wert, Vice President and Acting Dean of the Kansas City
Art Institute, discussed American Foreign Policy and Poland as well
as what he learned from a recent trip to Eastern Europe. Dr. Ted
Rosengarden discussed his recent book, Tombee: A Southern Planter.
Mr. John Maybank, an officer with Robinson-Humphrey Company,
discussed the Problems of Poverty and Wealth in American Society.
Kurt Pitts, with the Baker Hospital Drug Abuse Clinic, spoke to
students of sociology. Dr. Tinsley Eugene Yarbrough, an expert on
the U.S. Constitution, discussed his recent book on Supreme Court
Associate Justice Hugo Black. The Speaker Program provides a wide
variety of enrichment activities for Political Science students at
The Citadel.
The department routinely offers a variety of special courses
each year.
Reuben Greenberg, Charleston Chief of Police, taught a
very popular course on Topics in Law and Criminal Justice.
35
�Ambassador Twinam taught Topics in International Politics with
special emphasis on the Middle East and American Foreign Policy
decision-making.
Next year Dr. Kenneth Baucom will offer a course
on African Politics based on his academic background as an
anthropologist and his 20 years' experience living in South Africa.
Professor Baker has developed a special course on Religion and
American Politics which will be taught next fall. Three members of
the department will team teach a course on the Civil Rights
Movement.
These courses are designed to reflect current political
issues and keep students
abreast of
contemporary political
developments.
The scholarly production of the departmental faculty continues
to be impressive. Professor Milton · Boykin, in association with
Professor Louis Zurcher of the University of Texas and Commander
Hardy Merritt, USNR, was coauthor of a book published by Greenwood
Press in 1986 and entitled Citizen-Sailors in a Changing Society:
Policy Issues for Manning the U.S. Naval Reserve. Professor Boykin
and Professor
William Gary
Nichols of The Citadel History
Department are editing a book entitled Arms Control and Nuclear
Weapons with Greenwood Press scheduled to be published early next
year. Another member of the department, Professor Edward Davis,
has contributed a chapter to this book. Ambassador Joseph Twinam
published a chapter entitled "Reflections on Gulf Cooperation, with
Focus on Bahrain, Qatar and Oman" in John A. Sandwick's The Gulf
Cooperation Council: Moderation and Stability in an Independent
World.
Professors Robert Steed, Laurence Moreland, and Tod Baker
edited The 1984 Presidential Election in the South, published in
1986 by Praeger Publishers of New York.
In the spring of 1987,
they completed work on another book, Blacks in Southern Politics,
which is also scheduled for publication by Praeger later in the
year. Professors Baker, Moreland, and Steed are currently engaged
in two major projects--the 1984 party delegate study and a study
dealing with party precinct officials in South Carolina.
These
same professors also published a book chapter entitled "Migration
and Activist Politics" in Ronald A. Rapoport et. al. The Life of the
Parties: Activists in Presidential Politics.
Professor Pavis
pub lished an article entitled "Proposals for Joint Chiefs of Staff
Reorganization" in the June 1986 issue of Defense Analysis.
Professors S.A.
Arcilesi and
Paul Benson
are editing the
proceedings of "The 1987 Conference on the Military in Latin
American Politics." All members of the department attended at
least one
professional meeting,
and most were involved in
presenting papers, serving as discussants and chairing panels.
These scholarly activities greatly enrich class presentations and
maintain the currency of the faculty in their respective fields of
specialization.
Individual faculty members have been active in conferences and
professional associations as well as college organizations. The
department hosted the 1986 annual meeting of the South Carolina
Political Science Association in April 1987 with Professor Benson
serving as program chairman in his capacity as Vice President of
the Association. The department continues to sponsor The Citadel
36
�Symposiums of Southern Politics which have become the leading
series of conferences in the nation on scholarly research in
southern politics.
Additionally, the Third Annual Conference on
Latin American Affairs was held for Spring 1987 Citadel students.
Profe~sor Paul Benson was also elected as President of the South
Carolina Political Science Associ~tion.
Professor Davis was cochairman of the section on Military Studies of the International
Studies Association.
Professor Laurence Moreland was elected
chairman of The Citadel Faculty Council. Professor Tod Baker was
president of The Citadel Chapter of the AAUP.
Professor Robert
Steed has
been selected
by the Southern Political Science
Association Program Committee to organize the program and panels on
southern politics at
that Association's 1988 annual meeting in
Atlanta. The departmental faculty is pleased to recognize Dr.
Graham Sibery's completion of all requirements for the Doctor of
Philosophy degree at the University of South Carolina.
The Department of Political Science is sensitive to its role
in the
community and
continues to
cooperate with various
organizations such as the Charleston County Library, civic clubs,
and the Higher Education Consortium in providing speakers on such
issues as political campaigning, foreign policy, and the American
Constitution.
The Head of the Department and Ambassador Twiman
provided assistance in community based group composed of leading
citizens concerned
with serious discussions of international
politics. As a service to the community, a workshop was conducted
for Social Science teachers in the Charleston area by members of
the department. These activities extend the teaching function to
the public.
The members of the department were saddened by the death of
Professor Paul Kingston who had been a member of The Citadel
Faculty for thirty years . During this period, he taught courses in
American Government, Public Administration, and Sociology.
He was
particularly well known to several generations of students who
participated in the South Carolina Student Legislature. He will be
greatly missed.

Psychology
The Department of Psychology offers an undergraduate major in
Psychology leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree
and, in
cooperation with the Department of Education, offers two graduate
programs in School Psychology, both leading to the Specialist in
Education (Ed.S.) degree. The undergraduate major in Psychology is
designed to help the student integrate his learnings from a broad
background in the humanities and sciences while introducing him to
psychology as a science and as an applied human service.
The
strategy used for this overall goal is a relatively classical
curriculum which weds the increasingly sophisticated quantitative
research
orientations
with the observational-clinical-applied
tradition. The graduate programs in school psychology are directed.
toward developing specialists who are competent to deal with
37
�psychological and educational problems of children
the psychological milieu of school environments.
and to improve
Fifty-six undergraduate students majored in psychology this
year. Of the eleven May graduates, one applied for and was
admitted to graduate school, one is employed in business, and nine
accepted military commissions: seven Army, one Navy, and one Air
Force.
Our students continue to excel in academic endeavors:
Cadets Bruce Cox, Kenneth Crombie, and Leo Pacher presented
research papers
at the National Conference on Undergraduate
Research, Asheville, N.C.
Psychology majors were involved in
research in a variety of areas, including the effect of light on
shoulder pull strength under various filtration conditions, the
effects of fluorescent lighting on shoulder pull strength, and
light and exposure time on factors affecting grip strength.
Forty-three students are enrolled in our graduate programs in
school psychology.
Three students received the Ed.S. degree, and
two received the M.Ed • .degree in May. Ms. Stephanie Holler, a May
graduate, was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi and presented her
research at the annual meeting of the South Carolina Association of
School Psychologists, Myrtle Beach, S.C .
. Utilizing CDF funds, the department sponsored one workshop,
"Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale Workshop," and presented three
major seminars:
"Practical Applications of Vocational Assessment
for Counselors and School Psychologists," "Use and Misuse of
Psychological Assessment Data," and "Step Ahead: A Psychological
Rehabilitation Program."
Additional funding from CDF made it
possible to add important experimental equipment to our psychology
laboratory.
During the academic year, 506 undergraduate students and 293
graduate students
enrolled in
psychology courses.
Average
enrollment in undergraduate classes was 22 and in graduate classes
23. Enrolled in the 1987 first sUllllller session were 167 pupils with
an average class enrollment of 21.
Faculty and staff continued to be professionally active.
One
hundred percent of the faculty applied for and received CDF faculty
development grants, and seventy-five percent applied for and
received CDF research grants.
Fifty percent of the faculty
presented papers at the annual meeting
of the Southeastern
Psychological Association, Atlanta, Ga.
One hundred percent
attended local meetings of the Charleston Area Psychological
Association, seventy-five percent attended the joint annual meeting
of the South Carolina Psychological Association and the South
Carolina Association of School Psychologists, and fifty percent
attended meetings of the Low Country
Association of School
Psychologists.
The four full-time faculty members served on 13
standing committees and four ad hoc committees, conducted six major
workshops, and delivered 12 speeches.
Representative
examples
of professional scholarly activities
38
�are noted. COL Michael Doran presented a major research paper this
year. "The Effect of Light on Shoulder Pull Strength" and directed
three student research projects which were delivered at a national
conference.
He received a CDF Faculty Development Grant to study
biofeedback techniques and medical hypnosis and a CDF Research
Grant to study the effects of light and music on strength. LTC
Aline Mahan received a CDF Research Grant to make a study of
differential performance of learning disabled students and a CDF
Faculty Development Grant to improve her skills in vocational

Developmental Activities
The various programs have continued to be very productive
through this past year.
a. The Commission on Higher Education approved the Evening
College request to offer the B.S. in Electrical
Engineering and
the B.S. in Civil Engineering through the Evening College beginning
the fall semester 1987. This
offers
lowcountry
students
an
opportunity to
complete
a
degree
in
engineering without
transferring to Clemson or University of South Carolina.
b.
The Pre-Allied Health Sciences Program attracts very
few students.
Only three students enrolled this year.
This
program is coordinated with the Medical University of South
Carolina for eventual completion of the B.S. degree.
c. The Evening College and Graduate Student Advisory
Council, composed of seven students representing the various
constituencies of the evening programs, met and addressed several
issues of concern to evening and graduate students.
Its
purpose is to provide input from graduate students and evening
undergraduate students with emphasis
on improvement
of the
college's programs.
It is a forum that represents the academic,
administrative, and extracurricular interests
of the Evening
College student body.
d.
An Evening College newsletter was published each
semester providing students with information pertinent to their
programs.
e.
The Graduate programs in the Departments of Biology,
English, History, and French received state approval for the
offering of Advanced Placement courses in each of those respective
disciplines.
f.
A proposal for a Master's Degree in Engineering
Management is in the developmental stages.
Possible courses for
this program were offered in each semester this year in cooperation
with Clemson University's Graduate School.

Admissions
In August of 1986, 651 freshmen matriculated to The Citadel.
Academically, they were a solid group with strong high school
credentials and an average SAT score in excess of 1000.
Once
again, the most sought after areas of study proved to be business
administration and political science
followed by
civil and
electrical engineering.
The freshmen
class was
diverse in its demographic origin with
43
�representation from thirty-five states and four foreign countries.
Minority students, 87% of whom were black, comprised seven percent
of the class. Of the forty-six counties in South Carolina, thirtyseven were represented.
The Office of Admissions/Recruiting continues to receive an
increasing number of inquiries from prospective students.
Oncampus visitation of prospective students dramatically increased as
did requests for participation. in · our Weekend Visitors Program.
This resulted
in an additional weekend being designated to
accommodate this greater· demand ~
Applications continue to be
strong in both quality and quantity.
The offices of Admissions and Recruiting were reorganized into
one operation, and an assistant director
and an admissions
counselor joined the staff. Remodeling of the two offices enhanced
the combined operation and provided badly needed space.
S.
Scholarships
Academic scholarships are a significant attraction to highly
qualified high school graduates. They also serve as incentives for
cadets already enrolled in the Corps to make the extra effort to
achieve academic excellence and superior all-around student records
in order to compete for the awards available to them.
For the 1986-87 academic year, awards were made to 122
freshmen, 108 rising sophomores, 91 rising juniors, and 111 rising
seniors. A total of 432 academic scholarships, ranging in value
from $100 for one year to all expenses for four years, were
awarded. The total value of these scholarships was $815,267 :
Of
these awards, $229,516 went to outstanding freshmen, and the
average award for all students was
$1,887.
The academic
scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic standing,
leadership, and other attributes desirable for members of the Corps
of Cadets.
In addition to the academic scholarships, 226 cadets held ROTC
s cholarships of with 113 of these awarded by the Army program, 94
by the Naval Science program, and 19 by the Air Force program.
ROTC scholarships pay fees, tuition, books, and laboratory costs,
and each recipient receives a stipend of $100 per month for 10
months of the year. Total monetary value of the ROTC scholarships
was $842,190, plus $1,000 a year per recipient.
Under Category IV (outside scholarships), 64 students received
$51,607.

Student Aid Program
The Financial Aid Year 1986-87 was one of the most difficult
years to administer the federal aid programs because of the
Guaranteed
Student
Loan
(GSL) program being revamped, the
reauthorization of Title IV laws governing aid programs, new
validation procedures, and most importantly, decreases in federal
dollars. These changes have placed a much greater responsibility
on the parent to find alternative financing. Notwithstanding, we
have had a successful year.
Under the authorization of the Higher Education act of 1958,
as amended, The Citadel continued to operate six major federally
funded programs during the 1986-87 year:
Pell Grant (PELL),
Perkins
Loan
(Formally
Nation
Direct Student Loan--NDSL),
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), College WorkStudy (CWS), the Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL), and the Plus Loan
(PLUS).
These programs have assisted students with $1,886,278 which
was $161,971 less than the amount in the 1985-86 school year.
In addition to the federal programs, the State of South
Carolina provided $6,000 for Other Race Grants (ORG).
As a supplement to these programs, The Citadel provided aid to
70 students in the amount of $78,913.
The main contributors to
this supplement have been The Citadel Development Foundation (CDF),
through loans and grants, and the Stackhouse Loan Program. _Under
the CDF loans, 16 students were assisted with $21,200, and under
the CDF grants, 51 students were aided with $34,563; Stackhouse
loans in the amount of $23,150 were awarded to 19 students.
A grand total of 1,051
from all programs.
students
were
aided
with $1,971,191
PELL
During the 1986-87 year, the PELL program has made awards
ranging from $200 to $2,100, available to 198 students for a total
of $250,782.
This was a decrease of $75,553 from the previous
year.
This decrease was due to Congress' appropriation of less
money for this program and adjustments in formulas used to
45
�determine the amount of money for which students were eligible. It
is predicted that this trend will continue over the next few years
because of decreases in federal funding.
PERKINS LOAN (NDSL)
The average loan under the NDSL program this year was $1,184.
This program aided 51 students who were awarded $60,375 in loans.
As of 30 June 1987, a total of $1,131,625 has been loaned to
1051 borrowers. Over the same period, $94,058 has been earned in
interest, and loan repayments have amounted to $762,180. In
dollars, $318,044 represents the outstanding amount of loans in
this program.
This figure excludes $10,420 which was canceled due
to the death of borrowers, and $25,246 which is the portion partly
canceled under the teacher cancellation clause of the NDSL act.
Also, $2,690_ has been canceled because of bankruptcy of borrowers
and $15,247 for military cancellations which were also excluded
from the total amount to be repaid.
Our delinquent NDSL accounts are continuing to be collected by
Todd, Bremer, and Lawson. Our default rate is 542. In addition to
the professional collector, the State of South Carolina permits the
State Treasurer to withhold tax refunds of borrowers who are in
default.
Names of defaulted borrowers were reported to the
Treasurer for collection.
SEOG
The SEOG program, which made money available to our most needy
students, assisted 39 students with grants totaling $20,002.
The
average of these awards was $513.

Under this program, 527 students applied for loans, and these
students were granted $1,221,532 in long-term, low-interest loans.
This year, awards for families with income above $30,000 were based
on need. The amount of the loan was the actual need or $2,500,
whichever was less.
After 17 October 1986, all loans, regardless
of income, required a need analysis.
This has reduced aid for
which students have in the past qualified. With the need analysis
required for everyone, aid through this program will decrease in
the coming years.
PLUS

�Through this program, parents were eligible to borrow up to
$3,000 per year. Repayment began 60 days after the check was
written, and the payment was a minimum of $50 per month. Of those
applying, 110 families utilized this program and received $308,779.
Through the State of South Carolina, $6,000 in grant money was
allotted to
The Citadel to ' be used for minority students.
Eligibility was based on grade point averages (freshmen needed a
projected 3.0, and juniors and seniors needed 2.0 and 60 hours
earned). Sophomores were ineligible. Eight (8) minority students
were awarded a total · of $6,000.
This was an average of $750 per
student.
U.
Computer Center
After a number of years of analysis and planning, The Citadel
has received approval from the state to establish an on-campus
computing facility which will have the capacity to meet both
administrative and instructional computing needs. The new computer
center is being constructed in the old St. Alban's Chapel area, and
administrative services offices will be located on the fourth floor
of Bond Hall, adjacent to the new computer center.
The center
itself will be ready for occupancy in late June 1987, and the
office areas will be completed in August 1987.
Estimated cost for establishing and operating
this new
facility for
the first two years (1987-88 and 1988-89) is
approximately $2.6 million with $800,000 of this sum coming from
private sources (a $300,000 grant by the Self Foundation to the
Mark Clark Campaign and a $500,000 supplemental commitment by CDF).
This
new
computing
facility
will
begin
supporting
administrative functions of the college in early July 1987 and will
provide instructional support beginning the fall 1987 semester. It
is expected that by fall semester 1988 this facility will be
providing all administrative and academic computing support for the
college.
V.

Two significant gift collections totaling more than 2,000
titles were received in June, including art, art history, and
history books from the estate of COL Morgan Goodhardt, USAF, Ret.,
forme r professor of history at The Citadel. His collection of more
than 1,400 books will add many hundreds of fine books in these
areas. The estate of Richard Denison donated many fine military
history books.
A Library Science Program for the certification of school
librarians was proposed to and accepted by the Graduate Council in
February.
A survey of school librarians revealed considerable
interest in the program because no other institution in Charleston
offers a Library Science Program. Given sufficient enrollment, two
courses will be taught next academic year.
The library faculty attended several workshops on library
automation and online data base searching in order to prepare
better for teaching Library Science courses as well as for updating
practical skills and knowledge.
LTC Wood presented papers on

W.
Archives-Museum
The Archives-Museum has continued to maintain its support of
the academic, research, and fine arts stature of The Citadel. This
department has
increased
its
holdings,
provided increased
educational services and support, and participated statewide,
nationally and internationally, with research and exhibit support.
The Archives-Museum sustained budget reductions but rendered
comparative services because of increased help by volunteers,
members of the Cadet Museum Committee, and assistance from The
Citadel Development Foundation.
Two competitive grants were
submitted to the Institute for Museum Services to supplement
departmental professional needs.
Work by the Faculty Archives-Museum Committee and the staff of
this department has focused on developing plans for moving this
departmental operation from this facility, which is shared with the
Daniel Library, to a new wing in Mark Clark Hall at a future date.
Both the Archives and Museum holdings have outgrown the current
facility and the Daniel Library is in critical need of space for
expanding library collections and services. Members of the Faculty
Archives-Museum Committee include:
CDR Lyon G. Tyler, chairman;
MAJ L. Cohn; MAJ J.F. Gundel; MAJ H.C. Hudson; MAJ W.B. Moore, MAJ
D.T. Ouzts; and LTC H.B. Alexander.
Archives:
During the past year, the holdings of the Archives expanded by
more than twelve percent. Currently, the Archives houses more than
200 collections in over 1,000 document boxes.
Twenty-nine gifts
were made during this calendar year with the largest collections
being the Davis S. McAlister papers pertaining to his career at The
Citadel and the Sumner Waite Collection which includes Charles de
Gaule's correspondence from 1940-43.
The function of the Archives is not only to collect and
preserve manuscript items, documents, photographs, engravings,
etc., but also to make available this material to researchers.
Among those making use of the archival collections were: Channel 5
used Korean War footage from the Mark W. Clark collections for its
documentary on Korean heart patients; twenty-six photographs were
49
�selected from the Archives
Photographic Collection
for the
historical section in Dan Dry's photographic essay of The Citadel
as part of Harmony House Publishers American College Series;
Professor Robert Herzstein researched the Mark W. Clark papers for
material for his book on Chancellor Kurt Waldheim; and provided
research for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for its radio
program on Canadian prisoners of war in Fort Laghouat near Algiers
during World War II.
Archivist Jane Yates attended a conference sponsored by
SOLINET on Preservation Planning and Administration,
at the
Charleston Museum 30 April-1 May 1987, as well as the S.C.L.A.
workshop in
Columbia, S_.C.,
20 February
1987 on Archival
Preservation and the AMC format.
Museum
Museum activities and contributions have increased during the
past year. Attendance has exceeded 50,000 visitors per year. This
year there was an increase in tour groups from the public and
private school sectors visiting the Museum. Teachers consider the
Museum to be an exploratory environment for their students. During
April, the Department of History's Conference on the South held a
portion of its scholarly meetings in the Museum.
The following
special exhibits were displayed during the past
year:

a most productive year for the Cadet Museum Conunittee and Cannon
Company.
The officers are Jay Haydon, president; Mitch Kessler,
vice president; and Darryl Church, secretary-treasurer. LTC Nugent
Courvoisie, USA, Ret., Class of 1952, has continued to act as
advisor to the Cadet Company. In additio·n to LTC Courvoisie, CPT
Lynwood Metts, USAF, Department of Aerospace Studies, will be an
advisor to both the Cadet Museum Conunittee and Cannot Company
during the forthcoming year.
In 1979, CPT Metts served as cadet
president and conunander of these organizations.
With the addition of the IBM XT computer to this department,
the National Park Service at Ft. Sumter, with Ranger Charlie Wyatt,
has been most instrumental in helping to implement the Data Base
Plus III program which will assist with research, publication,
exhibit work, and inventory control.
CDR Guy Padgett, USN, a docent research assistant, continues
to provide excellent work with heraldry collection.
He has
assisted us with the development of our computer system an~
videotape projects.

Writing Center
The Writing Center began operation in the fall of 1984 serving
students, faculty, and administrative staff.
In ·the spring of
1985, Rosemary and Peyton Galloway generously endowed The Writing
Center, which ear-marked it as a permanent facility at The Citadel.
Its primary purpose is to provide tutorial assistance for those
students, especially members of the freshman class, whose writing
skills are inadequate.
The Writing Center provides a central place to ask questions,
seek information, find answers, and receive support and guidance
for any endeavor involving the written language. The Center has a
full-time director, a word processing instructor, ten professional
tutors, and ten peer-tutors.
This year, the Center had a total
52
�number of 10,503 contacts, up

Services
a.
Tutoring: Most of the Center's activity involves one-onone tutoring.
Tutorials
are conducted
in accordance with
guidelines approved by the English Department. This year, the
Center provided 2,076 hours of writing instruction.
b. Word Processing:
Fifteen word processors are available
for independent or supervised use. Individual tutorials and group
workshops are offered for those not familiar with word processing.
Students are encouraged to use the Center's word processors for
writing papers in any subject.
A total of 928 hours of word
processing instruction was provided by the Center in the past year.
c.
Resume Writing:
The Writing Center assists students in
writing resumes and cover letters.
A letter quality printer is
available for typing resumes and job-search correspondence.
d. Workshops: Groups instruction is conducted throughout the

This dramatic rise can be attributed to
increased use of tutorial services by students and faculty and to
the improvement of the word processing facilities and instruction.

�AA.
Honors Program
The Citadel's new Honors Program will open its doors in the
Fall of 1987.
Fifteen students will make up the first class of
Honors students.
The average SAT score of those selected is 1237
out of a possible 1600 (putting our students in approximately the
97th percentile nationally); the average class rank is in the top
6%; and the average score on the Test of Standard Written English
is 57 out of a possible 60+ (with six students scoring either a 60
or a 60+).
Faculty members have designed freshman-level Honors course
sequences in
the four , academic areas of English, history,
mathematics, and science. Honors students will take three (or,
exceptionally., four) of the sequences offered.
During the coming year, the sophomore-level Honors courses
will be designed, and detailed plans will be finalized for fitting
the course of study of Honors ~tudents into the courses of study
for each of the academic majors offered at The Citadel.

A.
ADMINISTRATION
General
School Year 1986-87 was marked with increased emphasis on
the support needs of students and faculty and staff.
Although
appropriated activities for support were funded sufficiently for
current operation, the backlog of deferred maintenance continued
to increase.
Continued emphasis on equipment replacement and
modernization in the auxiliary activities was made.
B.
Accomplishments
The Overall Permanent Improvement Plan for capital improvement
projects was submitted to the Commission on Higher Education for
the five year period starting in Fiscal Year 1988-89.
The number
one and two projects in priority order were Bond Hall Renovation
and Barracks Renovation, respectively.
The dredging of the boating center channel was completed,
thereby allowing water activities to be pursued regardless of the
tide
condition.
This
noteworthy
project
has
increased
the
recreational aspects on the waterfront for all concerned.
The design of McAlister Field House Renovation/Conversion
has been completed and construction is expected to commence in
September 1987.
All of the auxiliary activities met or exceeded revenue
projections with the exception of faculty and staff quarters.
The contract for food service with ARA was renewed this year
at no increase in cost.
This is the second year in a row with
no cost increase for this contract.
This is a saving to cadets
without a decrease in services of food quality or quantity.
The building on the old Trident Tech property was demolished
and the area surveyed for the use of athletic fields.
A small
ditch on the property requires authorization from the Coastal Council
for filling. This is pending at year's end.
The new Master Plan for college facilities has been completed,
printed and distributed.
A new head football coach, Charlie Taaffe, formerly assistant
coach at Army, was hired.
A revitalization of the football program
is expected.
Increased emphasis on campus safety and security has resulted
in fewer vehicle accidents on campus and parking citations.
An
increase in thefts on the campus was noted with the majority of
thefts involving unsecured valuables in the barracks.
55
�The computer facility was constructed in the areas formerly
occupied by St. Alban's Chapel and a portion of the offices of
Business Administration Department faculty.
Beneficial occupancy
is planned for the end of the year.
The construction of this
important facility required a great deal of coordination, especially
with the movement of St. Alban's to the north transept of Summerall
Chapel and relocation of six ~aculty members' offices to other
locations.
Although there was a three percent cost of living increase
for classified staff, it was di'sappointing that the longevity program
was discontinued and there were no provisions for a merit program
this year.
The renovations in the Canteen were completed and the new
computer system for inventory control was placed in operation.
The Canteen continues to offer a variety of gifts and services
for cadets as well as faculty, staff and visitors to the campus.
C.
Physical Plant
Staffing changes were minimal with Mr. Wayne Hagenbuch assuming
the
duties
as
the
Chief
of
Services Division.
Significant
improvement in custodial contract performance is occurring.
The Joint Bond Review Committee, ?tits August meeting, approved
our Annual Permanent Improvement Plan which consisted of four
projects:
(1) PCB Inspection ·and Removal, $100,000; (2) Lockwood
Field Preparation, $500,000; (3) Athletic and Physical Education
Field Renovation, $150,000; and (4) Concrete Repair of BarracKs 1,
2, 3 and 4, $200,000. · In addition, project numbers were given
to Vandiver Hall Project and the Coward Hall Kitchen Renovation
Project. HoweveF, during the design phase of the Coward Hall Kitchen
Renovation Project, detailed studies found significant problems
with the facility and project as originally programmed, and it
was recornmended by the architect that we abandon the project, provide
for a new food service facility, and demolish the existing building.
The Master Plan for campus development has been approved and
printed.
This is the third version of the Master Plan and reflects
present and future requirements. The last Master Plan was published
in 1977.

Athletic Affairs
1.
General
The Citadel participated in 11 intercollegiate sports
during the 1986-87 school year.
Over 700 cadets took part in the
athletic program either as squad members, managers, trainers or
student coaches. Six of 11 teams has a break-even winning averages.
Citadel teams continued to show improvement in most aspects,
including the classroom and on the playing field.
The reinstatement
58
�of indoor track as an intercollegiate sports offerings gave our
outdoor track program a great shot in the arm.
Highlights of the
year included some outstanding performances by several teams and
individuals.
The rifle team once again led the way with a 28-17
overall record which improved th~ Rifles from 14th to 12th nationally
and edged the Dogs closer to the elite Top 10.
Anthony McCormick,
a rising senior, participated in the NCAA rifle tournament and
came away as the 21st best shooter in the U.S.
The Rifles also
finished the season as the second best contingent among ROTC schools.
Basketball, although picked to finish sixth in the nine-team Southern
Conference race, finished a respectable fifth place and was rated
by Basketball Weekly as the third most improved team in the country.
The Bulldogs, led by Randy Nesbit, captured impressive road victories
over Army, South Alabama, East Tennessee State, Appalachian State
and Western Carolina.
Nesbit's troops also gave Kansas all it
could handle on the road before falling 74-71 in front of 15,300
fans - the third largest crowd to ever witness a Citadel five.
Charlie Taaffe, an assistant at Army for the past six
seasons, became The Citadel's 19th head football coach December
19, 1986, replacing Tom Moore.
Taaffe, who helped to lead the
Black Knights to three straight winning seasons and two bowls as
offensive coordinator, signed 25 high school student-athletes to
national letters-of-intent with nine coming from the Palmetto State,
three of the nine from the Charleston area.
The wrestling team
once again had a winning season, marking a 7-6-1 overall mark.
Clay Ogden brought national attention to The Citadel by winning
two matches at the NCAA Championships, something no other Citadel
wrestler has ever done.
He finished the 1986-87 year ranked as
the
12th
best
wrestler
in
the
country
at
the
158-pound
classification.
After a year's absence and under the guidance
of the first-year head coach Jody Huddleston, the indoor track
program finished fourth in the Southern Conference Indoor Meet
for their best showing since 1980.
The tennis team completed its second most successful season
in school history with an 18-6 overall record and fourth-place
finish in the Southern Conference Tournament.
The death of Colonel
Don Bunch, who coached the Bulldogs 30 seasons, was tragic as he
was highly respected and held a position of esteem with his
colleagues which is difficult to achieve.
He was named the Tennis
Coach of the Year in the Southern Conference.
The Citadel has
lost a truly outstanding gentleman and alumnus.
The baseball team
finished the 1987 season with a 19-31 overall record, however,
senior right-hander Mike Montei finished his career as the all-time
winning pitcher at an all-military school.
Head coach Chal Port
enters the 1988 season only two victories shy of the coveted
500-victory mark.
He has the most wins of a baseball coach at
an all-military school.
match
Head coach Gene Styles led the golf team to a 2-1 dual
record and his Bulldogs raised some eyebrows in tournament
59
�play.
The Dogs were led by senior Eddie Piedmont, who led the
Southern Conference in stroke average during the regular season.
He also finished in a tie for the first in the Furman Invitational,
defeating nine All-Americans in the process.
Head coach Bill
Barfield completed his ninth season atop the soccer program with
a squad saddled with yout}l and inexperience.
The soccer team lost
seven matches by the slim margin of one goal; however, prom1.s1.ng
players for the 1987 season, Rob Sorrentino and Troy Fahey, were
All-Southern Conference performers.
John Kerrison of the soccer
team brought great distinction to the soccer program and The Citadel
as he was named to CoSIDA' s Academic All-American At-Large honor
squad, being tabbed a member of the first team.
Scott Thompson,
a defensive tackle for the Bulldogs, has been named a preseason
All-American by Sporting News, a national magazine which has Thompson
listed as Southern Conference's best player and one of the nation's
Top 10 performers.
2.
Personnel
First-year head coach Jody Huddleston fi'nished his first
season with the Bulldogs, making impressive strides in cross country,
indoor track and outdoor track.

coach, hired six bright and enthusiastic coaches to bring in a

former football staff and was named assistant head coach and running
backs coach. Bill Doba came from Purdue and has been named defensive
coordinator and linebacker coach.
Jack Daniels, a head coach at
Hobart College for six years, was named defensive coordinator and
administrative assistant.
Jeff Bleamer joins the football program
as receivers and special teams coach after coaching two seasons
with Taaffe at Army.
Richard Wilson, an assistant at Missouri
for three seasons, begins his first with the Bulldogs serving as
defensive backs coach. Mark Asanovich, The Citadel's first full-time
strength coach resigned this spring to take a job in Minnesota.
A search for his replacement as well as Bunch's has begun.
3.
Budget and Athletic Funding
The 1986-87 budget came under severe strain with the
replacement of the entire football staff.
Revenue projections
were not met in three major activities (football, basketball and
baseball) despite unprecedented promotion and marketing efforts
as all three teams suffered losing seasons although basketball
showed signs of real improvement.
Zero base budgeting for 1987-88
will be a real challenge for the operations budget, but conversely
the coaching change and special projects have enabled The Brigadier
Club to have its best year to date in its history.
The lack of
a home floor in basketball (McAlister Field House Renovation) puts
the basketball revenue projection in an uncertain status.

E.
Personnel Services:
During Fiscal Year 1986-87, the Personnel Department continued
to provide full service to Citadel faculty and staff in all aspects
of personnel administration and management, although new programs
and functions were added without any increase to an inadequate
staff operating within an inadequate facility.
Following are
significant accomplishments during the year:
1.
Salary Increases.
a.
Classified employees received a 3% general base pay
increase effective 1 July 1986.
In addition, pay policies for
promotions, reclassifications, and grade reallocations were continued
at the 0-10% level. The Longevity Program was discontinued; however,
employees who received a longevity increase prior to 30 June 1986
continue to receive such for the uninterrupted duration of their
classified service.
The Merit Increment Program was suspended
for FY 1986-87, yet performance evaluations were continued in the
usual manner.
64
�b.
Unclassified faculty received compensation increases
based on an average 4% effective 1 October 1986.
Colleges and
universities were authorized to determine the total funds required
for these salary increases and to allot such total among individual
faculty members without uniformity.
Within this total, faculty
members received salary increases from 0-8%.
State Budget and
Control Board approval was required for increases in excess of
8%.
Eleven (11) faculty members received increases in excess of
8%, and Budget and Control Board approval was obtained.
Because
of The Citadel contract year starting on 1 September, the actual
payout, because of a one-month delay, was 22/24, or 3.67%. However,
base salaries effected 1 October reflected, on the average, an
increase of 4%.
The Citadel absorbed the increased payout costs,
estimated at $33,000 more than the 3% pool provided by the state.
The annual salary base was adjusted by the following amounts,
corresponding to the rating received for the 1985-86 Academic Year:
Satisfactory ..... $ 400.00
Meritorious ...... $ 800.00
Superior ........• $1,200.00
Outstanding ...... $2,000.00
c.
Unclassified
staff employees under
the Executive
Compensation System received salary increases similar to faculty
except that no one was authorized an increase above the maximum
of applicable pay range, and no one was authorized an increase
that would place the individual's annual salary within 3% of the
President's salary.
Since the salary increase planned for the
dean would in fact have placed his salary within this 3% limitation,
the full increase planned for the dean could not be effected on
1 October 1986.
Budget and Control Board approval was obtained,
and the dean was granted an additional salary increase on 1 December
1986 at the time the President's salary was increased.
d.
Unclassified athletic coaches were granted general
cost of living increases averaging 4%.
However, increases were
distributed throughout the fiscal year, e.g., following the sport
season for the sport coached.
e.
The President, whose performance is evaluated by the
Executive Salary and Performance Evaluation Commission, received
a 3% base pay increase on 1 October 1986, delaying the performance
increase.
The Commission voted subsequently to implement the
performance and "to minimum" adjustments that were previously
delayed, and effective 1 December 1986, the President was granted
an additional 7% increase.
In addition, the 3% limitation placed
on salary increases was increased to 4%, meaning no one can be
authorized a salary that would place the individual's annual salary
within 4% of the President's salary.
Since the President's salary
was further increased on 1 December 1986, the dean was granted
an additional increase.

�2.
Insurance Programs.
a. Two open enrollment periods were held during FY 1986-87
for both the health and dental insurance programs, one during
September to October 1986 and one during May 1987.
During the
September/October ·1986 Open Enrollment, faculty and staff members
had the choice of enrolling in either the State Group Plan (Plan A
or Plan B) or in one of the Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO's)
servicing the Charleston area, Companion Healthcare or Whitaker
Health Services, and to enroll dependents not previously enrolled
in a health plan.
In May 1987, a special open enrollment for health
insurance coverage was held. This special open enrollment permitted
members to change plans from the State Group Plan to an HMO or
vice versa, or to change within HMO' s.
Changes effected during
this open enrollment will remain in effect from 1 July 1987 until
31 December 1988.
Three HMO's now service the tri-county area;
Equicor
(formerly HCA),
Healthsource,
and Travelers
(formerly
Whitaker).
The carrier for the State Group Plan continued to be
Blue Cross/Blue Shield of South Carolina.
Monthly premiums for
health insurance coverage increased by 16%, which will remain in
effect through 31 December 1988.
b.
Dental
Effective 1 July 1987, General Adjustment
Business Services (GAB) will be the Third Party Administrator for
the dental program.
Coverage under GAB is the same as under R. E.
Harrington, except that benefit calculations will be changed to
a calendar year instead of a fiscal year., hence the six-months
beginning 1 July will be an extension of the FY 1986-87.
c.
Group Life - The State will be the carrier for the
Group Life Insurance Program.
This program provides free life
insurance coverage for active members of $3,000 effective 1 July
1987.
d.
Long-Term Disability
Effective 1 July 1987, the
State is the carrier for long-term disability benefits versus Liberty
Life.
e.
Optional Life - Because of the recent law affecting
age employment, coverage under the Optional Life Insurance Program
was expanded to comply with the ADEA reductions and rates for active
members age 70 or over.
Year round enrollment allows increases
in optional life insurance coverage at the time of pay increases,
or on request with medical evidence.
United of Omaha continues
to be the carrier for the Optional Life and Accidental Death and
Dismemberment Program.
f.
Faculty and Senior Staff Group Life Insurance Program Effective 1 October 1986, coverage under this program was expanded
to provide $20 ;000 coverage of life insurance and principal sum
of accidental death and dismemberment plus $20,000 coverage for
long-term disability benefits.
This action was taken based on
66
�recoIIIIIlendations
submitted
by
the
Faculty
and
Staff Benefits
Conunittee.
Coverage under this program is in addition to the State
Group Life and Long-Term Disability Programs.
3.

Affirmative Action.
The Citadel Affirmative Action Plan was updated, approved
by The Citadel Board of Visitors and the State Human Affairs
Commission.
It was signed by both the President and the Chairman
of the Board of Visitors and distributed to all concerned. Progress

Telephone service continued to improve, but not to the
level of satisfaction desired. Efforts continue to resolve concerns
with the Division of Information Resource Management (DIRM):
Costs
for service, equipment and long distance charges, maintenance,
over charges that have developed since the switch to System 85,
and problems encountered with student · long distance telephone
service.
With the installation of a personal computer on 1 July
1987, a direct link between The Citadel and DIRM will be established
so service and accountability should improve greatly.
3.
Prudent management decisions have made the copier service
a self-supporting activity, with sixteen (16) copiers strategically
located· throughout the campus.
Three new copiers were purchased
and placed in departments with high volume usage.
By the end of
FY 1986-87, all copiers in inventory wi 11 be paid for.
With the
present cost of $.04 per copy, substantial funds will be accumulated
in order to replace or upgrade old copiers to insure maximum service
of these important pieces of equipment.

�4.
There were 27 changes in faculty and staff quarters
assignments effected throughout FY 1986-87.
In addition, a fair
market estimate and a fair market rental estimate have been

After review and approval by the President,
rental
rates
for
individual
quarters
will be published and
incorporated in an updated memorandum on faculty and staff quarters.

Social and Recreational Activities.
A well-rounded program of social and recreational activities
was offered during FY 86-87.
With the College of Charleston close
by, cadets were also able to participate in many of their scheduled
events.
As is the case each year, a formal dance was held in
conjunction with each of the three major weekends at °The Citadel.
In · addition, seven informal dances were held at _ The Citadel Beach
Club.
Other popular activities included nine harbor cruises; a
social exchange with Converse, Queens and Agnes Scott colleges;
a Super Bowl party and a ski trip over Christmas break. Four student

and an ice cream social for freshmen.
The weekend movie program
provided low cost opportunities to view currently released films.
This year the "Knows for O-A-0' s" (One and Only) booklet
was updated and reprinted. This booklet provides a wealth of useful
72
�information about The Citadel, Charleston and customs at formal
dances for girlfriends who plan to attend a Citadel Hop for the
first time. Tours of Charleston were offered to interested freshmen
to he~p them learn their way around Charleston and learn more about
the area.
Etiquette training w.as expanded from being a segment
of the Student Activities orientation, to becoming a full four
hour course.
This course was designed to increase knowledge and
awareness of the social graces.
The annual student talent show
was a big success and netted a profit of $614.
Fold-out student
program calendars were printed for the first time to advertise
student activities events.
2.
Post Office.
The post office metered $99,300 of official mail during
FY 1986-87.
In addition, $25,436 of third class bulk mail was
processed.
This represents a 40% increase over FY 1985-86 in the
first class mailing costs and 78% in the third class bulk mail.
The annual unannounced audit of the post office resulted in another
"no discrepancies" report and an outstanding rating.
3.
The Citadel Beach Club.
The Citadel Beach Club remains a popular location not
only for Citadel users, but for groups from the surrounding area
as well.
A total of 64 outside groups rented beach club facilities
during periods when Citadel groups would not be using them.
These
rentals generated $9,287 in revenue for the college.
There were
39 Citadel group functions during the same period with an attendance
of 4,695.
During FY 86-87 there were 13,575 individual users of
the beach club.
4.
Publications.
a.
The Brigadier
The official college newspaper of The Citadel co~pleted
its seventh year as a self-supporting publication.
Revenues from
ads, subscription sales, and interest from the Jeremiah Milbank
Fund amounted to $34,400.
Twenty issues of The Brigadier were
once again published during the college year.
For the first time,
a significant surplus of almost $10,000 will be carried over into
the new fiscal year.

Two issues of The Shako, the student literary magazine,
were published.
Each issue was planned for distribution at the
end of a semester.
d.
The Guidon
The Guidon is a student handbook which serves primarily
to inform freshmen on a wealth of information about The Citadel,
present and past.
It is updated and revised each year by a cadet
staff and distributed to all incoming freshmen.
5.
Chorale and Original 13.
The
Citadel Chorale
is
an all-male vocal group of
approximately 25 voices.
In the fall of each year they are selected
through audition.
A smaller singing group from within the chorale
is the "Original 13".
During SY 1986-87 the chorale had nine
performances and the "Original 13" was called upon 14 times.
This
did not include the chorale spring tour performances in Atlanta,
Georgia area during the March 6-11 period.
This tour resulted
in many letters of praise for the chorale being received by The
Citadel.
6.
Fine Arts.
The Citadel Development Foundation again joined the college
in helping to provide an outstanding array of talent for the 1986-87
Fine Arts Series.
This year's program consisted of "Mus·ical
America", "Edgar Allan Poe", "Romeo and Juliet", the duo-pianist
team of "Delphin and Romain", and a steel drum band from Trinidad.
All events were well attended.
8.
Debate Team.
Fifteen cadets formed the debate team this year which
competed in intercollegiate and intramural debate .competition.
The team participated in eight intercollegiate tournaments and
one workshop held at UNC-Charlotte.
While they did not win any
of these large tournaments, they did have a winning record in terms
of head to head competition.
9.
Substance Abuse Program.
The numerous educational and preventive meRsures called
for in "The Citadel's Drug and Alcohol Program were all conducted
as scheduled with encouraging results.
New initiatives during
SY 1986-87
were:
(1) Peer-confrontation
training
for
cadet
leadership,
(2) sophomore
refresher
training,
and
(3) alcohol
awareness classes taught by the college surgeon for cadets diagnosed
as having a drinking problem.
There were 42 referrals of problem
drinkers to the Counselor to the Corps compared to 55 for the same
74
�period the year prior_.
These figures, along with favorable cadet
feedback, would tend to indicate that headway is being made toward
more responsible drinking practices.
9.
Family Life Program.
This program was established by the college president
in July
1982 to enhance family life by providing wholesome
recreational opportunities for Citadel faculty, staff and their
families.
The Family Life Committee meets quarterly under the
chairmanship of the director of student activities. Nine activities
plus an offering of children's summer activities were planned and
conducted during FY 1986-87.
10.

a.
in December to purchase a badly needed dryer for the Jenkins
Orphanage and contribute $200 to the "Toys for Tots" campaign.
b.
A student shuttle service was begun to aid cadets
without transportation in getting around town on weekends.
The
service proved to be very popular as 5,416 passengers took advantage
of the service.

Security
1.
General.
The Citadel Department of Public Safety increased its
focus on Crime Prevention during the past school year.
The success
of our identification of property through the means of engraving
was particularly evident in our bicycle identification program.
75
�For the first time in the past sixteen years, we had only one cadet's
bicycle stolen this year.
It was not secured or registered.
The
commitment of our Cadet Provost Marshals and their support in this ·
program was crucial.
The
Department
of
Public
Safety hosted
several
law
enforcement programs on campus for surrounding police departments.
These included presentations by The Federal Bureau of Investigation
to local law enforcement.
Corporal Cathy Bowers was designated as the department's
crime prevention officer. Corporal Bowers organized a second Citadel
Safety Fair which attracted over 100 members of the campus corrnnunity.
The safety fair was deemed a huge success by all concerned, with
presentations by the Charleston Fire Department, Greenville City
Police Department, the director of the physical plant, a live puppet
show, and a police robot from the Greenville City Police Department.
In addition, the Campus Family Life Activities presented the parents
and children with an overview of safe campus activities for campus
children during the surrnner.
2.
Law Enforcement Activities.
Thefts on campus increased during the past school year
with the majority of these thefts occurring in the barracks.
The
total number of barracks thefts increased from 28 to 40.
Again,
thefts of cash was the most significant area of increase. Thirty-two
cases of cash-only thefts as compared to 24 the previous year were
reported.
Again, this indicates that the successful engraving
and identification program has forced thieves to concentrate on
currency.
The majority of thefts still involve unsecured valuabies
and cash.
Of the $1,199 total values of items and cash stolen
in the barracks, only $234 were secured.
The remaining $965 in
cash and valuables were not secured at the time that they were
taken.
The number of thefts and the amount taken at The Citadel
remain almost insignificant when compared to losses of students
in other institutions of similar size.
The department conducted over 12,000 building ·inspections
as a part of its crime prevention program during the year.
3.
Traffic.
Six hundred three parking citations were issued during
the year.
This is a decrease of 44 from the previous year.
There
were 11 vehicle accidents on campus this past year which is a
continued downward trend from the previous year ( 13).
There were
no injuries
resulting
from the vehicle accidents on campus.
Thirty-four moving citations were issued and all citations were
upheld by the magistrates.
Parking at the stadium and on campus during athletic events
was conducted with no major incidents and was observed as the best
76
�seen thus far.
Parking at major on-campus events, Parents Day,
Homecoming, Corps Day and Graduation, was also handled without
major incident.
4.
Campus Support.
The
Department
of
Public
Safety
issued
over
1600
identification cards during the past year.
Public Safety officers
additionally assisted over 1200 motorists with dead batteries and
over 350 drivers who had locked themselves out of their vehicles.
A total of 112 lost and found items were turned in to the department,
with th~ department identifying 44 of the owners.

Hall each Sunday.
Special services recognized the anniversaries
of each branch of the military, the golden anniversary of Summerall
Chapel, Citadel sports, the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.,
the Holocaust, and cadets were also provided the opportunity to
worship aboard a U.S. Navy ship.
Catholic Mass was offered Monday
through Thursday and Sunday morning in Blessed Sacrament Chapel,
Sunday evening masses were said in Summerall Chapel.
During first
semester, Episcopal Holy Eucharist was held Sunday and Thursday
evenings.
The relocation of St. Alban's Chapel to Summerall . Chapel
second semester caused conflict with the Sunday 1900 Mass and the
Episcopal community opted for Monday services, vice Sundays.
There
was no change in the schedule for their Thursday worship.
Significant
on-campus
ministry
programs
included
the
pre-marriage seminar for seniors and fiancees; and inter faith
dialogue between students and the Catholic, Baptist and Jewish
campus ministers on contemporary issues; wedding vow renewal service

�Sunday for cadets and their families; the Freshman Banquet sponsored
by the Cadet Religious Counci 1; and a number of cookouts at The
Citadel boat house by ministry groups.
Fifty-eight off-campus events composed of retreats, socials,
holiday observances by Jewish and Orthodox faiths were led by
on-campus parishes and adjunct campus ministers. This total included
the team building/planning retreat for the 1986-87 Religious Council
in August at Givhans Ferry State Park; attendance of three cadets,
accompanied by Colonel Floyd W. Brown, Jr., USAF, Retired, Class
of 1955 and Chairman of SullDl1erall Chapel Alumni and Friends

spring break.
The President hosted a campus ministry breakfast meeting at
the beginning of the school year which got the group off to a good
start.
In addition to the regularly scheduled meetings on the
second Tuesday of each month, the campus ministers and spouses
socialized with a Christmas dinner at a local restaurant and a
boat trip to Bull's Island in the spring.
In April, the Charleston
Area Ministerial Association meeting was hosted at The Citadel
Faculty House by the chaplain, and he was the Association's luncheon
speaker the following month.
Chaplain Garthe completed his Doctor
of Ministry and the degree was conferred by the San Francisco
Theological Seminary in May. The Chaplain to the Corps also attended
three
professional
development
seminars
throughout
the
year.
Personnel changes within campus ministry in 1986-87 were:
Ba-ptist
W. Scott McBroom succeeded W. Eric Sloan for the Baptist Student
Union.
Catholic James Parker replaced Alex Schilipp as interim
priest first semester, second semester Leo van den Oetelaar was
appointed priest for Christ the Divine Teacher Parish, Presbyterian
Thomas L. Are,
Jr.
replaced Kenneth Doxey for
the Westminster
Fellowship.
SullDl1erall Chapel Alumni
and Friends Association (SCAFA),
launched in April 1986, continues to seek methods of enriching
on-campus spiritual experiences for the Corps of Cadets. The recent
Sally Port article generated a number of responses from interested
alumni.
Several cadets in religious leadership roles were replaced
during the school year, the most notable being the Regimental
Religious Officer in mid-second semester.
Renovation of the stained glass windows in SullDl1erall Chapel
was completed in August and the state-of-the-art sound system
installed in May was used for the first time at baccalaureate.
These two projects were funded by a donation from Peter J. Leventis,
'41, to the Mark Clark Campaign.
In January, the north transept
of the main chapel was converted to the Saint Alban' s Episcopal
78
�Chapel which was formerly located in Bond Hall. In April, a bulletin
board was erected in the rear of Sunnn~rall Chapel for activity
announcements of the three on-campus parishe~ .•
In 1986-87, use
of Sunnnerall Chapel included 75 weddings and 73 wedding rehearsals,
five baptisms, five grad~ation cer~monies, one memorial, one funeral
and one class reunion service.

Auxiliary Activities
1.
F~od Service.
ARA continued to provide excellent service for the Corps
of Cadets and many other activities during School Year 1986-87.
2.
Cadet Store.
The Cadet Store enjoyed a very successful year SY 1986-87.
More used textbooks were purchased from students and wholesalers
than ever before, creating a good savings to the . students. Computer
operations we+e enhanced resulting in faster updating of operational
systems and serving the cadets in a more efficient manner.
A
specialized service to cadets on textbook reorders was started
in the spring of 1987.
A wear test of solid gray wash and wear trousers, considered
for replacement of duty wear trousers, was conducted in the fall
of 1986; however, the results of the te!!t were negative.
Wear
tests of additional garments by . cadet supply sergeants will be
conducted in the fall of 1987.
3.
Laundry.
The Laundry processed 669,648 poun4s , of laundry consisting
of 61,886 bundles.
The average cost per bundle was $10.15 or $1.06
per pound. 55,131 pounds of dry cleaning were processed this year.
Mr.
Charles Pringle was promoted
replacing Mr. William Flanagin who resigned.
was hired as master craftsman.
4.
Tailor

Mr. Alfred Litchfield
Shop.
Delivery of wool and white uniforms to the 651 cadets
the freshman class of School Year 1986-87 was completed on
30 January 1987.
The Naval R.O.T.C. contract began 2 February
1987, and was completed on 30 April 1987. 285 cadets of the rising
junior class were measured for blazers and slacks during the initial
measuring period.
A second measuring period will take place in
September 1987.
Approximately 7,500 wool uniforms were processed
for summer storage which includes repair work, class stripes and
rank sewing.

�S.
Print Shop.
The production of the Print Shop has again increased
considerably this past year due to the addition of new equipment.
Production was increased by SO percent over last year with the
addition of the interface for the typesetter.
A new automatic
book binder increased production in the bindery department beyond
measure.
Jobs that last year took a week and required the help
of several part-time employees are now done in a matter of hours,
thereby reducing costs tremendously and allowing time for more
printing work to be accomplished. The Citadel Print Plant continues
to support the College of Charleston with its printing needs.

operation
under
the- able
leadership
of
Colonel John P. Smyth
(Director) and Captain Samuel G. Evans, III (Deputy Director).
Camp enrollment for 1987 :was 328 campers.. The camper recruiting
program brought in 38 new campers. During the off-season, the camp
purchased twelve new Anschutz marksmanship match rifles replacing
15+ year old equipment.
In addition, three new Remington 20-gauge
shotguns were purchased for use . in the Hunter Safety and Trapshooting
program.
Dredging of the Boating Center channel increased the
participation
time
of
all
waterfront
activities.
Softball
instruction replaced Archery in the daily schedule.
The camp's
Citadel Scholarship program awarded five $500 scholarships to campers
and counselors in 1986. Recipients were:
First Honor Graduates
(Campers)
- 1st Session - Robbie Dixon
- 2nd Session - Brian Martin
Outstanding Counselors - 1st Session - Ron Diegel

and the Faculty House. These areas are being looked at very closely
to determine the best recommendation for improvements.
The Canteen Advisory Committee was replaced this school year,
and an Auxiliary Advisory Committee was appointed to benefit all
auxiliary services.
A greater interest was shown by the cadets
on this committee to help both the Corps and the auxiliary services.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
General
Fiscal year 1986-87 saw higher educ.ation in South Carolina
hurt even more by the shortfalls in state revenues.
The
Legislature funded higher education at 95.98 per cent in the
Appropriations Act (a reduction of 3% from fiscal year 1985-86),
but the Budget and
Control Board was forced to impose budget
reductions of 2.6 per cent in November 1986 and 0.8 per cent
in February 1987. These "cuts" amounted to $320,000 and $96,000
respectively for The Citadel.
The college absorbed each "cut"
with no direct impact on academic programs, but had to defer
essential facilities maintenance and rehabilitation projects,
eliminate most equipment replacement funding, curtail travel
and supplies expenditures,
reduce utilization of temporary
help by over 25 per cent, and institute a controlled freeze
on all personnel vacancies in order to absorb the cuts.
Higher
education in South Carolina is faced with very serious questions
of program priorities if the funding problems continue.
The
following
table
highlights
the
downward
trend
in
state
appropriations for higher education:

?
It should be noted that higher education's "share" of the state
appropriations
continues
to
decrease.
In
1979-80
higher
education received 15. 2 per cent.
In 1986-87 it received only
13.8 per cent.
The State Auditor's Report on The Citadel's financial records
for fiscal year 1983-84 and 1984-85 was received by the college
in March 1987. During previous audits of The Citadel's financial
records, the opinions were qualified because of the auditors'
inability to reconstruct acquisition costs of certain real
properties owned by the college.
This shortcoming was resolved
during the latest audit through the assistance of the property
appraisal staff of the Budget and Control Board.
However,
the latest audit report is qualified because of the lack of
disclosure of the financial records of The Citadel Development
Foundation and the Association of Citadel Men.
It is The
Citadel's position that both organizations are unrelated parties.
85
�Because of an extremely heavy workload, the State Auditor
was not able to perform an audit of The Citadel's financial
records
for
fiscal
year 1985-86.
The State Auditor has
contracted with the Columbia, South Carolina firm of Rogers,
Montgomery, Devaney and Company, PA, to perform a two-year
audit covering both fis~al years 1985-86 and 1986-87.
The Budget and Control Board's Procurement Audit staff
conducted an extensive audit of The Citadel's procurement system
to determine how well we implemented our $10,000 local procurement authority and our compliance with state procurement regulations.
The college received a draft report of findings, and
was advised during the exit interview that our $10,000 local
procurement authority should be continued.
Fiscal year 1986-87 marked our first full year with local
authority to procure goods and services up to $10,000.
During
the year we processed 53 invitations for bid (IFB), one request
for proposal (RFP), and one construction bid.
All were
processed and awarded without protest.
Also, the very popular
and successful Departmental Order (DO) System was expanded
to permit purchases of up to $150.00.
This system expedites
the purchasing process for department/activity heads and removes
a large volume of low cost procurement actions from the
procurement office staff's workload.
The college continues
to make good use of its status as a Service Educational Activity
(SEA) to obtain free surplus materials from the Department
of Defense (DOD).
Over $47,200 worth of supplies and equipment
was acquired from the DOD during the fiscal year.
One of the most significant procurement actions for The
Citadel in the past five or six years was successfully completed
this year with the award of contracts to Digital Equipment
Corporation (DEC) and Information Associates (IA) for hardware
and software to establish an on-campus administrative computer
support system.
This highly technical million dollar plus
acquisition was accomplished in a timely manner and was awarded
without protest.
The entire Citadel team of staff and faculty
members which participated in this acquisition is t ·o be complimented for their professionalism and dedication.
Details as
to the system purchased and its application are contained within
the academic affairs portion of this annual report.
Fiscal year 1986-87 was another year of marked improvement
in our efforts to meet the Minority Business Enterprise procurement objective of the college.
The Board of Visitors approved
an objective of five per cent
(5%) of our controllable
procurement expenditures for goods and services which amounted
to $121,045.
Actual purchases for the fiscal year exceeded
$53,600.
That compares most favorably to our performance of
$14,056 in 1984-85 and $32,615 in 1985-86.
We anticipate an
even better performance in fiscal year 1987-88.
Following selection of the new computer system, the financial
86
�staff began a very detailed training program to implement the
new system as of 1 July 1987--the start of our new fiscal year.
The financial accounting portion of the new system is the first
portion scheduled for implementation.
To fully prepare our
staff for the new system training, the accounting manager,
Mrs. Higgs, first presented a basic college fund accounting
course to the staff using a course developed by the National
Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO).
The next portion of the system to be implemented, as of 1 January
1988, is the payroll and personnel management portion.
The college revised its system of quarterly reviews during
1986-87 to streamline the system, reduce workload on department
heads, reduce paper work, and provide more pertinent data to
the president for application to the decision making process.
Under the revised system, data for the first and third quarter
reviews is provided from management reports generated by the
accounting system.
This permits a comprehensive review of
actual revenues and expenditures compared to the approved budget
with corrective actions recommended to the president where
required.
The mid-year review is a much more detailed review
with input from every department/activity in the college, and
a formal two-hour pre sen tat ion for the president.
The revised
system was well received by all concerned and facilitated the
decision process required to implement the two appropriations
reductions mentioned earlier in this report.
The athletic department made significant progress in the
internal management of its own budget.
Had the department
not been faced with two significant cost factors it would
probably have been able to end the year with a slight profit.
However, the costs associated with the changes in the football
coaching staff and the lowered level of "cost recovery" generated
by teaching physical education courses resulted in a net
operating shortfall of approximately $80,000.
The department
did fully implement its program to control expenditures from
cadet QM accounts in compliance with NCAA Regulations, and,
as a result, was able to recover over $30,000 which, in prior
years, would have been expended.
A number of significant personnel actions took place within
the finance area during the fiscal year.
In chronological
order they were:
. LTC Knight completed the last of three annual one-week
sessions at the College Business Management Institute at the
University of Kentucky.
Mrs. Nancy Mcinerney

B.
Financial Review of Operations for Fiscal Year 1985-86
Under the fund method of accounting for colleges and universities, each fund group includes revenues, expenditures, and
fund balances and is established to record specific activities
or to attain particular objectives.
Some of these funds are
available for general operations while others are restricted
by special limitations or specific, designated applications.
It should - be noted that financial statements for colleges and
universities differ from those of conunercial entities which
typically present an overall, consolidated financial position.
By contrast college and university financial statements are
presented in terms of separate fund groups and do riot include
a grand total of all operations.
The following statistical highlights, information, statements
and schedules are intended to provide a better understanding
of (1) the accounting policies and procedures used by The
Citadel, (2) the composition of various funds which comprise
the college's financial structure, and (3) the changes that
have occurred in each of the major fund groups during the past
fiscal year.
Current
Unrestricted
Funds
represent
the
unrestricted
operating accounts of the college including not only those
relating to its educational and general activities but also
those used to record the transactions of the college's owned
88
�and operated auxiliary enterprises (e.g., dining hall, infirmary,
laundry and dry cleaning, tailor shop, cadet store, print shop,
barracks, faculty and staff quarters, the independent operations
of the cadet canteen · and the athletic department).
The assets
of the Current Unrestricted Fund generally include cash, special
deposits,
receivables,
inventories,
and
prepaid
expenses.
Its liabilities generally consist of various payables, accrued
liabilities, student depqsits and other liabilities such as
unclaimed wages.
Current
Restricted
Funds
represent
gifts,
grants,
and
contract funds received by the college, subject to restrictions
of the grantors as to their expenditures in support of research,
training programs,
libraries, instruction, student services,
scholarships/fellowships, and other sundry purposes.
Loan Funds principally represent funds which are limited
by the terms of their donors to the purpose of making loans
to students who might otherwise be unable to attend The Citadel.
Often these funds are restricted to a specific type of loan.
These funds covered here include The Citadel Development Foundation Loan
Fund, National Direct Student Loan Fund, and the
Stackhouse Trust Loan Fund.
The Basic Educational Opportunity
and Secondary Educational Opportunity Grants are covered under
the Current Restricted Fund.
During the past fiscal year,
loans of $106,475 were made from the Stackhouse, CDF and the
NDSL Loan funds to ~ students.
At 30 June 1987, outstanding
student loans receivables aggregated $661,586.
Our NDSL default
rate of 4.59 per cent is below the national average.
Endowment
and Similar Funds
represent gifts,
bequests,
or other funds received which fall into one of two categories:
(1) Permanent Endowment Funds for which the original donor
has stipulated, as a condition of the gift, that the principal
is to be maintained inviolate and in perpetuity and only the
income resulting from the investment of the fund may be expended;
(2) Quasi-endowment funds which are not restricted by donor
limitations but which the Board of Visitors has determined
are to be retained and invested until such time as they may
authorize the expenditure of the principal of such funds.
In both cases, the income earned on the investment of Endowment
and Similar Funds is used in accordance with the required terms
of the donor's original gift for specific purposes, such as
student aid, scholarships and awards.
Any increase or decrease
in value is recognized upon disposition and no adjustment is
made to carrying value prior to this time.
Plant Funds are now divided into four groups:
Retirement
of Indebtedness, Investment in Plant, Unexpended, and Renewals
and Replacements.
Retirement of Indebtedness funds are derived
from the registration and tuition fees collected from the student
for the specific purpose of debt service.
Investment in plant
represents the aggregate of all land, buildings and capital
equipment belonging to the college.
Also included is the
89
�construction in progress of any building projects.
Unexpended
Funds represent the unspent portion of funds approved for Capital
Improvement
projects.
Renewals
and Replacement
Funds are
reserves set aside to provide for renewal and replacement of
capital equipment and facilities.
The retirement of indebtedness plant funds at year end
recorded receipts of $623,135 in fees and other revenue and
$45,706 in interest income for a total receipt of $668,841.
The expenses recorded for bond retirement including interest,
transfers and service charges totaled $337,751.
The fund also
contributed
$338,020
toward
capital
construction
projects.
The fund balance at year end is $1,361,557 for a net decrease
of $3,595 over
fiscal
year 1985-86.
The current bonded
indebtedness of the college including plant improvement is
displayed in the appropriate schedule.
Investment in plant fund represents the aggregate total
of buildings, land and moveable and fixed equipment, and library
books owned by the college. These assets are carried at original
cost plus subsequent additions, or at fair market value at
date of gift, if donated.
In accordance with practices followed
by educational institutions, no provision is made for appreciation or depreciation of physical plant assets.
Major additions
to plant assets, including purchases of moveable and fixed
equipment with a unit value in excess of $200.00 having an
expected
life
in
excess
of
one
year,
are
capitalized.
Expenditures from current funds for acquisition of moveable
and fixed equipment are recorded in both the current funds
expenditure accounts of the various departments and in ·the
appropriate plant investment account.
The book value at 30
June 1987 is $42,380,318.
Unexpended Plant Funds balance as of 30 June 1987 amounted
to $12,718,763.
Renewals and Replacement Fund balances as of 30 June 1987
totaled $1,640,749.
These funds are distributed ~mong eight
accounts:
barracks, barracks telephones, dining hall, faculty
quarters,
infirmary,
laundry,
computer
acquisition
and
rehabilitation reserve.

Note 1 - Stm118ry of Significant Accounting Policies
A.
Accrual Basis Accounting
The financial statements of The Citadel have been prepared on
the accrual basis except that, in accordance with acconnting
practices custanarily followed by educational institutions, no
prov1s1on is OBde for depreciation of physical plant assets. The
Statement of Current Fund Revenues, Expenditures, and Other Changes
is a statement of financial activities of current funds related to
the current reporting periods. It does not purport to present the
results of operations or the net incane or loss for the period as
would a statement of inccme or a statement of revenues and
expenses.
To the extent that current funds are used to finance plant
assets,
the
aroonnts so provided are acconnted for as (1)
expenditures, in the case of alterations and renovations and
purchases of rrovable equiµnent and library books; and (2) transfers
inclooing
the required provisions for debt 8JJX>rtization and
interest.
B.
Furn Accounting
To ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on
the use of the resources available to the college.the acconnts • are
TIBintained in accordance with the principles of "fund acconnting."
This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes
are classified for acconnting and reporting purposes into fnnds
that are in accordance with activities or objectives specified.
Separate acconnts are TIBintained for each fund; however, in the
accCJll)anying
financial
statements,
funds that have similar
characteristics have been ccni:>ined into fnnd groups • . Accordingly,
all financial transactions have been recorded and reported by fund
group.
Within each fund group, fund balances restricted by outside
sources are so indicated and are distinguished fran nnrestricted
funds allocated to specific purposes by action of the governing
board.
Externally restricted fnnds TTBY be used only in accordance.
with the purposes established by the source of such funds and are
in contrast with unrestricted funds over which the governing board
retains full control to use in achieving any of its institutional
purposes.
99
�C.
Description of Funds
The Current Fund group in<'h1rlPR those econanic resources that
are expendable for operating purposes to perfonn the primary
mission of the institution. For .a Irore meaningful disclosure, the
current funds are · divided into three subgroups: unrestric t ed,
restricted and auxiliary enterprises.
Auxiliary enterprises are
described separately in the next paragraph. Current funds are
considered l.lllrestricted unless the restrictions imposed by the
donor
or other external agency are so specific that they
substantially reduce the college's flexibility in their use.
Unrestricted gifts are recognized as revenues when received.
Receipts that are restricted are recorded initially as additions to
restricted fund balances then recognized as revenues to the extent
that such fl.lllds were expended for the restricted purposes during
the current fiscal year.
Auxiliary Enterprises are self-supporting business entities
and activities that exist for the purpose of furnishing goods
and/or services prirrBrily to students,
faculty,
staff,
or
departments, and for which charges are rrBde that directly relate t o
Receipts and disbursements are
such goods and/or services.
reported separately as unrestricted current funds in the current
flllld group.
Assets, liabilities and fl.llld balances are camined
with other llllrestricted current funds for reporting purposes.
The Loan Fund group accounts for the resources available for
loans to students.
Loan funds are provided by the federal
goverrment
and other
sources,
including private
gifts.
Expenditures include costs of loan collections, loan cancellations,
and acministrative expenses under federal loan programs.
The Fnd<MDent Fund group includes penne.nent endownent and
Penne.nent
funds functioning as endO't'illent (quasi-endownent).
endO't'illent funds are subject to the restrictions of gift instrunents
requ1r1ng in perpetuity that the principal be invested and the
·ncane only be used.
While quasi-endownent funds have been
established by the governing board for the same purposes as
penne.nent endownent funds, any unrestricted portion of quasiendO't'illent fl.lllds nay be expended.
The tenn "principal" is construed to include the original
value of an endownent,
subsequent
additions
and
realized
gains/losses attributable to investment transactions.
The
Plant
subgroups:
Fund
group
consists
of
four
self-balancing
(1) Unexpended Plant Ftmds, (2) Renewal and Replacement Ftmds,
(3) Retirement of Indebtedness Funds and (4) Investment in Plant.
The Unexpended Plant Fund subgroup accounts for the resources
derived fran various sources to finance the acquisition of longlife assets. The Renewal and Replacement Fund subgroup provides
for renewal and replacement of existing plant assets. Resources
10 0
�that are specifically accurnilated for interest and principal
payments, debt service reserve funds, and other debt service
charges relRtr~ •~ Plant Fund indebtedness are accounted for in
the Retirement of Indebtedness F\md subgroup. The Investment in
Plant subgroup accounts for aH long-1 i fe assets in the service of
the College and all construction in progress. Net Investment in
Plant is the amount of the carrying value of assets
over
liabilities.
The Agency F\md group accounts for the assets held on behalf
of others in the capacity of custodian
or
fiscal
agent;
consequently, transactions relating to agency funds do not affect
the operating statements of The Citadel. They include accounts of
students,
student
organizations,
and other groups directly
associated with the College.
D.
Caq,ensa ted Absences
The College leave policy allows for certain ~loyees to carry
forward a ma.xinun of 45 annual vacation leave days. The liability
was $702,412 at 30 June 1987 and $651,908 at 30 June 1986.
E.
Investment in Plant
Investment in plant is reflected primarily at cost. Estimated
cost values have been used where original cost records were not
available. Additions to investment in plant are reflected at cost.
Retirements and dispositions are rem:>ved at cost or estimated cost
values.
Replacements
and
repairs
are
not capitalized.
Irq>rovements are recorded as additions to investment in plant.
In 1986 the value of buildings was adjusted to the appraised
historical cost as determined by the Property Appraisal Office of
the Research and Statistical Service Division of the Budget and
Control
Board.
This adjustment resulted in a decrease of
$8,041,230 in the value of the buildings and was done due to the
lack of CO'fl)lete cost records of building acquisitions prior to
1976.
F.
Inventories
Inventories are recorded at cost which is not in excess of net
realizable value.
G.
Special Deposits
Special Deposits llBinly represent fees by students
for
succeeding semesters and various security deposits.
Fees are
included in revenue in the semester applicable to the deposits.
10 1
�H. Cash, Die To, Die Fran
The college maintains two checking accounts with banking
institutions in which minimun cash balances are maintained. The
remaining funds of the college are on deposit with the
State
Treasurer.
The balancing of cash in the bank accounts with the
State Treasurer may result in deficits in the cash balances of sane
funds. \Yhen these deficits occur, they are recorded as aue to/due
fran in the appropriate funds.
I.
Other Significant Accomiting Policies
Other significant accounting policies
other notes to the financial statements.
are set forth in the
Note 2 - State Appropriations
A.
General ~erations
The College is a State supported college that receives annual
appropriations for operations fran the State of South Carolina.
The laws of the State and the policies and procedures specified by
the State for state agencies and institutions are applicable to the
activities of the College.
B.
Capital ~rovements
In the fiscal year ended 30 June 1987, and in prior years, the
State authorized funds for i~rovement and expansion of the College
facilities using the proceeds of State Capital I~rovernent Bonds to
be issued by the State.
·The balances rece ivable for these
authorizations are included in the balance shee t

B.
State of Training and Discipline of the Corps of Cadets
School Year 1986-87 was a difficult year for the Corps of
Cadets. The Corps was shaken by the incident of 23 October and
the resultant period of extended adverse publicity. However, an
organization that shares and overcomes adversity, normally grows
stronger. Working under the close scrutiny of the media and other
critics resulted in less than a comfortable working environment
for the Corps and its leadership.
However, they endured and
matured, and by the end of the school year, Corps operations were
back to normal.
In the final analysis, the difficulties
associated with the unfortunate experience of the fall appears to
have he lped bind the Corps closer together.
Cadet Regulations, i.e., The Blue book, continued to be
accepted by the Corps of Cadets. Minor changes were made in
School Year 1986-87 to strengthen attendance at parades and
provide definitive guidance to fourthclass cadets as to where they
were allowed to park and drive automobiles in relation to the
campus. Stronger punishments for "Bed Stuffing" and for female
visitors in the barracks were imposed. The offense and punishment
for "Quibbling" will be removed from The Blue Book due to its
being an offense in the Honor Manual. The removal of "Quibbling"
from The Blue Book is the result of a continuing effort to
separate honor and conduct offenses.
Cadre training in School Year 1986-87 continued emphasis on
"Training the Trainer," with primary emphasis at the platoon and
squad level. This training resulted in continued improvement in
the confidence and performance of cadet leaders at these levels.
108
�The new Regimental and Battalion Staff training sessions resulted
in much improved staff coordination and job performance. This
program will be continued in School Year 1987-88. The coming year
will emphasize continued training at the platoon and squad level
on manual of arms, posture, tratning as to respect for race and
religious differences, and emphasis on attention to detail.
Refresher training will be initiated for the remainder of the
Corps of Cadets on posture and manual of arms. Overall, the 198687 cadre did an excellent job.
A highlight of School Year 1986-87 was the overall appearance
and performance by all units of the Corps at parades and reviews.
The reward system initiated in School Year 1984-85 has resulted in
all companies competing to be in the top four positions in parade
performance in order to be excused from a drill period the
following week.
This program will continue.
The Salute Gun
Battery's performance was outstanding this past year. Only one
misfire was experienced, and this proved to be the result of a
faulty round.
The following is a summary of cadet disciplinary problems for
School Year 1986-87, compared with School Year 1985-86.

The alcohol program initiated in School Year 1983-84
continues.
This program requires all cadets involved in
disciplinary actions that were alcohol related to report to
Captain Sauers, Department of Psychology, for screening, testing,
and counselling. Additionally, certain cadets were required to
report to The Citadel Surgeon as a result of Captain Sauers'
screening/testing, to determine if they should attend a fuandatpry
four hour alcohol awareness class or if additional treatment was
appropriate. A total of forty-five cadets were alcohol referrals
in School Year 1986-87 as compared to fifty-five cadets in School
Year 1985-86. Captain Sauers referred sixteen of the forty-five
to The Citadel Surgeon for further evaluation. All sixteen cadets
were required to attend the mandatory alcohol awareness class.
Two cadets volunteered for - the class and attended on their own
initiative.
Alcohol related offenses continue to be a major
problem within the Corps. Increased corrective actions will be
initiated in this area.
The three ROTC departments conducted sensitivity training for
all cadets in the Corps. The purpose of this instruction was to
increase cadets' awareness and sensitivity as regards different
races, creeds, and religi-ous backgrounds. This ins'truction was
meaningful, timely, and well received by all members of the Corps
of Cadets. This instruction will continue in School Year 1987-88.
School Year 1986-87 saw · ll6 fourth classmen withdraw (17.8%
of 652) as opposed to 88 (13.4% of 657) for School Year 1985-86
*One cadet later suspended as a result of receiving a class II
punishment.
**Both cadets expelled for drug related offenses.

�and 63 (12.0% of 527) for School Year 1984-85. During the past
ten years, the attrition rate has fluctuated from 7.6% to 20.0%
with an average of 15.8%.
High attrition in 1987 may be
attributed to a weakness in the senior Chain of Command's ability
to assert strong influence on the Corps during an extended period
of stress associated with the incident in October, plus an
inability of fourth classmen to cope with the academic and
military programs.
C.

During the school year the Department of Military Science
activated an Army Cadet Battalion.
During ceremonies on the
parade ground on 20 September 1986, Army cadets participated in an
activation ceremony forming the Palmetto Battalion. The Palmetto
Battalion receives its heritage from the first regiment formed by
Citadel cadets in 1846 to fight in the Mexican War. The cadet
battalion is run entirely by cadets and coordinates and plans all
Army activities for the Army cadets. The Battalion was involved
in four major training exercises during the year and the Ranger
Company was involved in six Field Training Exercises.
Static
displays of Army equipment and weaponry were provided for the
cadets by the South Carolina Army National Guard, the 120th Army
Reserve Command and the 24th Infantry Division from Fort Stewart,
Georgia. On two occasions, cadets received helicopter orientation
flights from the SCARNG and 24th Division Aviation Battalion.

Guest
speakers this year included Major General Marchant, Adjutant
General of the South Carolina National Guard; Brigadier General
Flake, Commanding General of 120 Army Reserve Command; Major
General Wagner, Commanding General of the U. s. Army Cadet
Command; and Brigadier General Cavezza, Assistant Division

Currently, forty-four sophomores and
freshmen are attending The Citadel on Army Scholarships.
The Battalion continues to have an active company in the
Association of United States Army (AUSA).
Six cadets plus an
advisor attended the National Convention in Washington, D. C. The
Citadel Chapter of the Army Aviation Association of America (AAAA)
sent four cadets and the advisor to the National Convention in
Houston, Texas.
The Ranger Company is still the most active Army
extracurricular activity.
The company participated in several
113
�projects and to talk with military and civilian engineers on
opportunities in engineering. After a very successful year last
summer in special training, the battalion will send cadets to
Airborne School, Air Assault School, Northern Warfare School,
Russian Language Institute., Cadet Troop Leadership Training and
Ranger School. A 100% graduation/completion rate was experienced
last summer. Similar success is anticipated this year.
The Battalion will continue to strive to recruit more
individuals into the Army program, train and retain quality cadets
and commission them as lieutenants upon graduation.
The Army
strives for excellence in leadership, and wants the whole man who
has demonstrated the academic and physical requirements required
to become a quality officer. The Army Detachment will continue to
provide the cadets the training, equipment and material necessary
to educate them on the opportunities of the total Army force; the
Active Army, the Army National Guard and the Army Reserves.
E.
Department of Aerospace Studies
The keystone of training given in Aerospace Studies continues
to be our commitment to providing positive leadership, quality
instruction, and the experiences necessary to develop quality
officers for the United States Air Force.
1.
Personnel
Colonel Kenneth E. Krause has assumed the duties of
Professor of Aerospace Studies and Deputy Commandant of Cadets.
He replaced Colonel E. C. Newman who retired from active duty in
January 1987.
Unit personnel consists of eight officers (all
having Master's Degrees) serving as assistant professors of
Aerospace Studies, five enlisted members, and one civilian
secretary. Major Julius Jackson will depart this summer for a new
assignment as Operations Officer for the 26th Weather Squadron,
Barksdale Air Force Base, LA.
He served at The Citadel for three
years and departs as a Lieutenant Colonel selectee. Major Jackson
was recently honored with the Leo Codd Award for 1986 which
recognizes AFROTC's outstanding instructor of the year.
Six
officers will act as company tactical officers in the coming year.
Captain Lynwood Metts, Citadel Class of 1979, reported for duty as
Major Jackson's replacement.
2.
Operations
The Department of Aerospace Studies has developed
several innovative academic programs during the SY 1986-87. A new
instructor training program was developed to prepare new
instructors for their first teaching experience, and to provide a
review of administrative procedures, regulatory requirements, and
new instructor improvement techniques.
All lesson plans,
examinations, and related course material have been placed on
computer disks for easy update. During the 1986-87 School Year,
717 students enrolled in the AFROTC program. Of these, sixty-six
114
�examinations, and related course material have been placed on
computer disks for easy update. During the 1986-87 School Year,
717 students enrolled in the AFROTC program. Of these, sixty-six
were Air Force scholarship/contract students.
For FY 1986,
thirty-three cadets were commissioned into the United States Air
Force. Estimated officer production for FY 1987 is thirty-four.
Special students, those not currently on contract, continue to be
attracted to the AFROTC curricuum of management, leadership, and
foreign affairs. Current trends indicate over seventy cadets from
the Class of 1990 are seeking a commission.
3.
Extracurricular Activities
The Department of Aerospace Studies hosted several
prominent guest speakers and briefing teams, and expanded its base
visit program. During the year, guest speakers included Colonel
Hubbard, Vietnam POW, addressing cadets and the public in an open
lecture in Jenkins Hall. The Electronic Security Command briefing
team visit was a great success as they gave a motivational and
informative insight into this growing major command. A panel
organized by the Arnold Air Society discussed the issue of teen
suicide.
Several other panels of both officer and NCOs from
Charleston Air Force Base and visits by active duty alumni aided
in presenting the Air Force way of life to Aerospace Studies
classes. Three base visits were conducted, giving over 180 cadets
primary orientation to the Air Force mission.
These visits will
be an ongoing and growing part of the detachment extracurricular
activities in coming years. In addition, the Flight Orientation
Program had outstanding results with over eighty cadets flying on
C-141 training missions with the 437th MAW, Charleston Air Force
Base. The Charleston Air Force Base Company Grade Officer Council
supported an additional eighty cadets with the opportunity to see
the real Air Force through the "Shadow Program" that allows cadets
to observe the daily activities of an officer while he performs
his mission.
In an AFROTC nationwide competition, Citadel AFROTC
cadets won 4th place, out of 152, in the 2nd annual Postal
Physical Fitness Test.
Staff efforts resulted in a very
respectable 8th place.
The newly formed Air Force Athletic
Association, organized and run by cadets, trained and competed in
several races including the Cooper River Bridge Run.
The
Squadron, performed community service activities in providing
manpower for the Carolina Beach Erosion Project and the Charleston
Air Force Base Young Astronauts Day. Both organizations won high
praise from the local media, environmental organizations, and the
437th MAW.

Future Plans
Next year, the total enrollment in AFROTC is once again
expected to be over 700. Continued emphasis on showing cadets a
firsthand look at the Air Force and Air Force career will
underscore our cadet centered activities. We will increase all of
our existing programs next year, planning six base visits and
offering the flight orientation program to over 200 cadets. With
llS
�our updated and stimulating curriculum, we expect superb results
academically in the coming year. In our recruiting efforts, we
will continue to emphasize quality in our future Air Force
officers.

DEVELOPMENT MATTERS
General
The five development functions---fund raising, alumni
affairs, job placement, governmental affairs and public relations,
and publications complemented each other effectively in 1986-87.
B.
Fund Raising
1.
Capital Campaign
The sole project of The Citadel Development Office
during 1986-87 continued to be The General Mark W. Clark Campaign
for The Citadel Tomorrow. This unprecedented effort to raise $27
million in gifts and pledges for the college was publicly
announced on 23 October 1985.
At that time commitments to the
Campaign had reached $10.4 million, and by the beginning of fiscal
year 1987 this figure stood at approximately $15 million.
During this fiscal year, an additional $5 million has
been given, committed or pledged through the various fundraising
entities at the college. Of the total, some $4.8 million has been
pledged during the Campaign period to The Citadel Development
Foundation. This figure includes Citadel Development Foundation
annual fund efforts as well as specific deferred commitments made
through the campaign to that organization.
For the same time
period, The Brigadier Club has reported $2.7 million added to
annual fundraising and memorial fund efforts.
Scholarship gifts
have also been significant, and, in the period since the
Campaign's 1 January 1983 start date, now total over $2.6 million.
In sum, Citadel development Foundation, Brigadier and
scholarship gifts have accounted for approximately $10 million of
the Campaign's $20 million total, and Campaign efforts have added
an additional $10 million in case gifts, endowments and
commitments to the college. During this period, the Campaign has
received three pledges of $1 million or more, and over 30
commitments in excess of $100,000. Gifts of real property are now
over $1 million and some $1.5 million in gift bonds will mature,
at various dates, over the next 30 years.
The Campaign has been an unqualified success in terms
of effort and the return on that effort, and helps ensure the
college's future fiscal stability.
Using the Campaign as a
vehicle, the other fundraising entities have benefitted from this
combined approach.
The Campaign as a focus for The Citadel's
unique educational image has led to new and significant major
gifts and commitments from alumni, corporations, foundations and
friends.
During fiscal year 1987, alumni solicitation efforts, by
mail, were conducted in most of South Carolina, North Carolina,
Georgia, and the Virginia-Maryland-Delaware-District of Columbia
119
�region. Alumni in these regions account for over 50% of the total
alumni on the current mailing list.
During fiscal year 1988,
major campaign efforts will be directed at alumni solicitation in
the Florida region, completion of solicitation in the Northeastern
region, and initiation of solicitation in the Midwest, Southwest,
and, if possible, the Pacific Coast.
A meeting of the Campaign Cabinet and Leadership
Committee was held on 8 April 1987.
An emphasis at enhancing the
public relations aspects of this campaign was suggested so that
all Citadel constituents know of the Campaign's status and needs
during this third and final phase leading to the total fund goal.
2.
Citadel Development Foundation
Citadel Development Foundation received $1,215,734 in
gifts during the year.
Alumni donated $1,023,200, parents and
other friends $76,716, businesses and industries $61,098, and
foundations $54,720.
3.
The Brigadier Club, Inc.
The Brigadier Club, Inc., received $145,000 in cash,
$160,000 in life insurance benefits and $582,000 in pledges during
fiscal year 1987 for a total of $887,000 in commitments toward its
memorial fund.
120
�C.
Alumni Affairs
The office of Alumni Affairs and Placement expanded during
the fourth quarter of 1986-87 when the publications office was
transferred from the developmeht staff to the staff of alumni
affairs. While the duties will remain the same, the Director of
Publications, Mrs. Rose Marie McCarty, will report to the Di.rector
of Alumni Affairs and Placement.
The realignment puts the
Director of Publications in the same proximity as alumni affairs
which represents the publications office's largest single user.
Alumni participation and interest continued at a very high
level. The "Nesmith incident" with its accompanying national
publicity acted as a catalyst in generating alumni interest and
support. The football coaching change also had a positive impact
on alumni relations. This interest was evidenced by significantly
increased attendance at club meetings, and phone calls and letters
to the Association.
CAPP was revitalized during the past year. A well attended
seminar on recruiting and admissions kicked off the college year.
Another conference is planned for October 1987.
The Government Affairs Committee continues to function as a
statewide organization that alerts alumni throughout the State of
legislative matters affecting the institution and helps devise
appropriate action.
The Career Insight Program presents seminars and deals with
cadets in career awareness and placement. The alumni network is
extensively used in dealing with cadets from various geographical
backgrounds and who have various interests.
Alumni clubs remain a valued part of the advancement program.
Citadel Development Foundation, the Brigadier Club, and the
Capital Campaign use clubs to reach alumni.
There are SO active
Citadel Clubs.
Major Association activities of the 1986-87 academic year
included the following:
1. Publishing Alumni News and "Through the Sally Port,"
an informal newsletter to all alumni.
2.
3.
away games.
Homecoming activities.
Pre-and post-receptions for all home games and many
4.
Servicing Citadel Clubs.
S.
Alumni travel.
6.
Marketing Programs.
121
Two significant programs were
�introduced this year.
The Citadel - A Portrait was mailed to
nearly 5,000 alumni and parents.
According to Association
records, this represents the most widely circulated work on The
Citadel.
A credit card program was recently introduced to all
alumni and graduating seniors. Early returns indicate that this
also will be a well acce,p ted program.
One hundred three (103)
members of the class of 1987 became Life Members of the
Association upon graduation. This represented 25% of the class.
The Association plans a more aggressive campaign that has a goal
of registering 50% of each class as life members.
Nearly 50% of addressable alumni are members of the
Association, giving The Citadel one of the highest alumni
participation rates of all colleges and universities.
D.
Placement
Placement activity continued on an accelerated level. The
strong economy continued to be a major factor.
Seminars were
mandatory for seniors who had registered with the placement
office. The seminars covered resume preparation, job hunting
techniques and interviewing skills.
One hundred forty-five (145) students, representing 50% of
the non-commissioned seniors, registered with the placement
office. As of April 30, forty-one
(41) or 28% had secured jobs.
This figure is not complete and additional surveys will be made
during the summer.
For comparison, 81% of the Class of 1986 who
worked through the placement office secured employment by August
of 1986.
Seventy-one (71) firms recruited on campus for an 11%
increase over 1985-86.
These visits generated 116 interview
schedules, a 60% . increase ave
the previous year. One thousand
six hundred twenty-four (1,624) individual interviews were
generated representing a 50% increase.
Twenty-eight companies
recruited for MBAs; however, only three MBA students utilized the
services of the placement office.
The placement office developed the Job Search Manual in the
summer of 1986, designed specifically for Citadel cadets and
students.
Over 250 of these books were issued during the fall of
1986. It outlines how to use the placement office and offers
sound job search advice.
The manual has been made an integral
part of the placement process.
The Alumni Career Network has been strengthened and more
clearly defined through a survey sent to all addressable alumni in
August 1986. Over 300 alumni identified themselves as willing to
be active in the Alumni Career Network.
This network is utilized
by prospective graduates as well as job-seeking alumni. It is
also utilized by underclassmen looking for summer and temporary
jobs.
122
�The Career Fair sponsored by the placement office and
Association of Citadel Men grew to 35 companies, 10 more than the
previous year. Five career search seminars were sponsored by the
Placement Office and Association.
E.
Publications
Publications, under the cognizance of the Publications
Editor, is responsible for keeping all Citadel constituencies
informed concerning the aspects of the college of most interest to
them, accomplishing marketing and promotional objectives of great
value to the college, enhancing the image of The Citadel, and
providing information about the college to campus visitors.
Brochures and pamphlets have been prepared to accomplish
specific objectives of the various administrative and academic
departments with effective, attractive, and accurate information
professionally presented.
Alumni News, the high-quality, quarterly publication of the
Association of Citadel Men, continues to be well-received.
Its
coverage of major campus happenings, activities in sports and
academic departments, as well as alumni activities is praised by
alumni and other readers.
Through the Sally Port, newsletter of the Association of
Citadel Men mailed to all alumni, continued as a valued and
informative communication.
Through this publication alumni
received an accurate account of the racial incident on campus.
The Citadel Calendar Comments, published monthly during the
college year, has taken on a bright, new look and furnishes more
comprehensive news for members of the faculty, staff, retirees,
Advisory Committee, Board of Visitors, selected alumni and other
entities.
F.
Governmental and Public Relations·
The relationship between The Citadel and the South Carolina
General Assembly continued to improve during fiscal year 1986-87.
Senator Thomas L. Moore (D), Edgefield-Aiken Counties and
Rep. Frank E. McBride (D), Richland County, were appointed as exofficio members to the Board of Visitors replacing Sen. Nick
Theodore, elected as Lieutenant Governor of the State, and Rep.
Larry Blanding, reassigned from the Committee with appointment
responsibilities to The Citadel.
During the Legislative session, one bill was passed and
signed into law, with specific interest to The Citadel. House
Bill 2121 made it unlawful for any person to intentionally or
recklessly engage in acts which may cause physical harm for the
purpose of initiation of affiliation into any chartered student
organization.
However, athletic events and military training,
123
�whether State, Federal or educational were specifically exempt
from the intent of ' the bill.
The Citadel received favorable national publicity from wire
service coverage of remarks made by Secretary of Education,
William J. Bennett (1986 Commencement Speaker), on 8 July to the
Heritage Foundation in Washington, D. C. concerning the successful
drug prevention programs in operation at The Citadel.
The opening of college year 1986-87 on 18 August was reported
by The State and The Greenville News.
Photographs, interviews
with parents, freshmen cadets and the president resulted in both
papers printing positive stories.
National exposure for the college resulted when a Day in the
Life of America, a 272 page book of photographs taken throughout
the United States on 2 May 1986, was published in October.
The
Citadel was featured in three full-page photographs within the
book, Newsweek magazine published one of the three photographs in
an article in the DILA project and ABC's "20/20" television show,
which filmed the book being made, contained footage of The Citadel
campus.
Major state and national attraction focused on The Citadel
following a 23 October incident involving five upperclassmen and a
freshman.
The incident, one with racial overtones, was, with few
exceptions, reported accurately by the South Carolina media.
The
out-of-state media extracted or compressed wire service reports
and used alarming headlines that resulted in incomplete o~
incorrect stories.
Columbia Broadcasting System's news show, "West 57th," sent a
four-man film crew to campus for nine days of filming in January
and March. The stated purpose of the show was to look at the
mystique of The Citadel.
The show aired on 26 May and was
overwhe lmingly considered to be very positive for the college.

HIGHLIGHTS
The 1986-87 School Year was a year of significant achievement
for The Citadel as progress was made on The Citadel goals for the
1980's.
It was a difficult year for the Corps of Cadets. The Corps
was shaken by the incident of 23 October and the subsequent period
of extended adverse publicity. Working under the close scrutiny
of the media and other critics, the Corps and its leadership
functioned in an unsettled working environment for most of the
school year. An organization that shares and overcomes adversity
habitually grows stronger, and the Corps endured and matured; by
the spring, operations were back to normal.
In the final
analysis, the overwhelming consensus from all quarters, including
some of the most vocal critics, concluded that the five cadet
offenders in the Nesmith incident were appropriately punished.
Major state and national attraction had focused on the Citadel
following the 23 October incident which, with few exceptions, was
reported accurately by the South Carolina media. The out-of-state
media extracted or compressed wire service reports and made
alarming headlines that resulted in incomplete or incorrect
stories.
The special efforts taken by the staff and faculty to
increase the Corps' awareness of the sensitivities associated with
race, religion, and national origin were productive.
Over the
year, a special understanding of the importance of living and
working in harmony was achieved by the Corps.
The d if ficul ties
associated with the unfortunate experiences of the fall of 1986
have helped bind the Corps even closer together.
Despite the problems de-scribed above, progress was made in
all major activitie-s of the college. Academic programs reviewed
during the year by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education (CHE) included Civil Engineering, Electrical
Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics.
All reviews were
positive.
Other CHE actions affecting The Citadel were
recommendations to increase faculty staffing_ of the Department of
Education and to work more closely with the College of Charleston
to resolve certain issues in the Special Education program. An
extensive review of the curriculum of the college, with major
emphasis on the core curriculum,was completed. This document will
be reviewed in the fall of 1987 for implementation in the 1988-89
academic year. A new graduate program, a Master of Engineering
Management, was proposed to the S. C. Commission on Higher
Education.
A tentative implementing agreement has been worked
out between The Citadel and Clemson University, subject to
Commission approval for this program.
The Citadel initiated
bachelor of science degree programs in both civil and electrical
engineering in the Evening College effective fall 1987.
The
Citadel's new Honors Program will begin in the fall of 1987 with
fifteen students having been selected out of 97 applicants.
The
college received grants to host five institutes for secondary
school teachers of advanced placement courses in the disciplines
of European and U.S. History, English, Biology and French.
�Fiscal Year 1986-87 saw South Carolina's revenues fall short
of budget projections.
The Appropriations Act funded Higher
Education at only 95.9% of the CHE formula.
This was followed by
cuts of 2.6% in November and 0.8% in March.
The Citadel's share
of the two cuts was $320,000 and $96,000 respectively, for a total
mid-year cut of $416,000. The college absorbed each cut with no
direct impact on academic programs, but did have to make
significant reductions in support activities.
The college
completed action to purchase the former Trident Technical College
property on Lockwood Boulevard for $2 million. The College also
completed the procurement process for acquisition of a new
administrative computer system to include funding of over $683,000
of the acquisition cost by lease - purchase. The first audit of
the Athletic Department, as now required by the NCAA, was
performed by an independent audit firm with no material weaknesses
observed.
The college received the final audit report for Fiscal
Years 1983-84 and 1984-85 from the State Auditor, and the State
auditor arranged for the Fiscal Years 1985-86 and 1986-87 audits
to be performed by the independent firm of Rogers, Montgomery,
Devaney and Company of Columbia, South Carolina. The procurement
staff made continued progress toward achieving the Board of
Visitors' goals in the minority Business Enterprise Plan by
increasing purchases from minority firms from $32,615 in 1985-86
to $53,600 in 1986-87.
The college revised its system of
quarterly reviews to streamline the -process, reduce paper work,
and provide the president more pertinent data for decision making.
Among a number of personnel actions taking place during the fiscal
year, two with special significance were Mrs. Kelly Higgs'
replacement of Mrs. Pam Carlson, who resigned her position as
accounting manager, and Captain William Brady's replacement of
Major John Hosey who re~igned his position as · Director of
Procurement Services.
The Master Plan for Facilities for The Citadel through this
century and into the 21st century has been completed. A $4 million
stadium project has been approved, and an architect-engineer firm
has been selected to do the master planning and programming
portion of this project. St. Alban's Chapel was moved from Bond
Hall to the north transept of Summerall Chapel to make room for
the new computer facility in Bond Hall.
This facility houses the
new VAX computer for The Citadel.
Highlights of the Overall
Permanent Improvement Plan for The Citadel for the years 1988
through 1993 submitted to the Commission on Higher Education
included the Renovation of Bond Hall, Barracks Renovation,
Perimeter Road Parking, Library Expansion/Renovation, Utility
Distribution System Renovation and Thompson Hall.
The dredging
and opening of the boating center channel for boating traffic,
regardless of the tides, was completed early in the spring.
Lockwood Field, the site of the old Trident Tech property, was
cleared and a permit was issued to allow The Citadel to fill in a
portion of the area that comes under the cognizance of the Coastal
Council. New bindery equipment was put into operation in the Print
Shop, along with a new complete interface for the shop's
types·etter.
�The General Mark W. Clark Campaign for The Citadel Tomorrow,
with an unprecendented $27 million goal, was announced to the
public on October 23, 1985, with pledges and commitments of $10.4
million already accounted for in the effort. By I July 1986, this
figure had risen to approximately $15 million, and by the end of
this fiscal year pledges and commitments to The Clark Campaign
exceeded $20 million. This historic initiative, to provide
private funds and endowments for the college., is well ahead of its
goal to reach $27 million in commitments by October, 1990.
The Citadel was saddened by the deaths of Cadet Gerald P.
Hoeffner on 12 April 1987, Colonel Donald C. Bunch, Associate
Professor Emeritus and Tennis Coach on 20 April 1987, and
Lieutenant Colonel Paul J. Kingston on 22 April 1987.

�SYNOPSIS OF THE HISTORY OF THE CITADEL
The Citadel, The Military _College of South Carolina, is
situated on a beautiful campus between Hampton Park and the Ashley
River.
From 20 December 1842, when the legislature of South
Carolina passed an act providing for the establishment of The
Citadel, to September 1922, the college was located on Marion
Square. Erected as a state arsenal after the Denmark Vesey slave
uprising in 1822, this fortress was called The Citadel. It was
garrisoned by Federal troops, then by state troops, until they
were replaced in March 1843 by 20 students who comprised the first
Corps of Cadets.
In 1833, The Arsenal in Columbia was established and it,
along with The Citadel, was a part of the South Carolina Military
Academy. In 1845, The Arsenal became a subsidiary school which
took only freshmen, and The Citadel
continued as a four year
college. The Arsenal burned in 1865 and was never reopened.
During the Civil War, 193 of the 224 alumni still living,
wore the Confederate gray, all but 20 as commissioned officers and
four as generals.
On 9 January 1861, cadets of the Corps drove back the Star of
the West from the entrance of Charleston Harbor. On 28 January
1861, the Corps was made a part of the military organization by
legislative act, and helped emplace and guard artillery on James
Island, performed guard duty in Charleston and suffered several
casualties in engagements with Union troops at Tulifinny Creek
near Yemassee Station on 7 and 9 December 1864.
The operation of the college was suspended when the buildings
on Marion Square were occupied by Federal Troops from 18 February
1865 until April 1879.
On 2 October 1882, The Citadel reopened with an enrollment of
185 cadets.
In 1910 the name of the college was changed to The
Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina. The City Council
of Charleston, during the administration of Mayor T. T. Hyde, gave
the state the present site of the college in 1918. In the fall of
1922, the college began operating at its new location with almost
300 cadets. Today the Corps of Cadets, 2000 strong, continues as
an all-male corps, as has been the case traditionally from its
establishment in 1842.

The prospects for Fall 1987 are for maximum cadet enrollment.
The expected size of the Class of 1991, which is scheduled to
report on 17 August 1987, is 650 young men. This will be the same
size as last year's class, but the number of black freshmen is
expected to be down. The application rate for this year's class
was equal in quality and increased 7 percent over the applicant
pool last year.
Evening College enrollment will probably remain
stable.
These data make clear that, despite the national decline
in young people of college age, The Citadel and its quality of
education have great attraction for undergraduate and graduate
students.
2.
Curriculum and Academic Programs
Programs reviewed by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education included
Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Computer Science and Mathematics. All reviews were positive. The
Commission took action on several recommendations made by its
education program reviewers.
Among those actions affecting The
Citadel were recommendations to increase faculty staffing of the
Education Department and to work more closely and harmoniously with
the College of Charleston to iron out problems in the Special
Education program.
The
college had
anticipated the first
requirement and has hired two professors (although one was a
replacement), and the VPAAs from the College of Charleston and The
Citadel will meet with the faculty of the Special Education
program.
An extensive review of the curriculum of the college with
major emphasis on the core curriculum has been completed. This
request has been shared with all academic departments and the
Faculty Council and will be reviewed in the fall of 1987 for
implementation in the 1988-89 academic year.

New Programs
The college did propose a new graduate program, a Master of
Engineering Management, to the S.C. Commission on Higher Education.
That body has the program under review.
In addition, the
Commission authorized The Citadel to offer the bachelor of science
degree in both civil and electrical engineering through the Evening
College. The first courses will be offered this fall.
5.
Assistance from CDF
Without the support and generosity of The Citadel Development
Foundation, the academic offerings of the college would be greatly
diminished.
CDF's grant of $1.2 million directly enriches the
heart of the college: the students and faculty. Just over 50 % of
the CDF grant is used to fund scholarships and students grants,
with the remainder dedicated to faculty research and development,
speakers, conferences, and cadet travel.
6.
Honors Program
The Citadel's new Honors Program will open its doors in the
fall of 1987.
Fifteen students have been selected out of 97
applicants to make up the first class of Honors students. The
average SAT score of those selected is 1241 of a possible 1600; the
average class rank is in the top 5%; and the average score on the
Test of Standard Written English is 57 out of a possible 60+ (with
6 students scoring either a 60 or a 60+).
Freshman-level Honors course sequences will be approached as
four academic areas: English, history, mathematics, and science.
Honors students will take three (or, exceptionally, four) of the
sequences offered.
During the coming year, the sophomore-level Honors courses
will be designed, and detailed plans will be finalized for fitting
the course of study of Honors students into the courses of study
for each of the academic majors offered at The Citadel.
15
�7.
Computer Center
After a number of years of analysis and planning, The Citadel
has received approval from the State to establish an on-campus
computing facility which will have the capacity to meet both
administrative and instructional computing needs. The new computer
center is being constructed in the old St. Alban's Chapel area, and
administrative services offices will be located on the fourth floor
of Bond Hall, adjacent to the new computer center. The center
itself will be ready for occupancy in late June 1987, and the
office areas will be completed in August 1987.
Estimated cost
for establishing and operating this new
facility for the first two years (1987-88 and
1988-89) is
approximately $2.6 million with $800,000 of this sum coming from
private sources (a $300,000 grant by the Self Foundation to the
Mark Clark Campaign and a $500,000 supplemental commitment by CDF).
This
new
computing
facility
will
begin
supporting
administrative functions of the College in early July of 1987 and
will provide instructional support beginning in the fall 1987
semester. It is expected that by the fall semester of 1988 this
facility will
be providing
all administrative and academic
computing support for the College.
8.
Faculty
The passing away of two faculty members shocked the campus and
The Citadel family this spring.
In April, COL Donald C. Bunch,
Emeritus Associate Professor of Business Administration and the
college tennis coach, died unexpectedly. Two days later, LTC Paul
J. Kingston, Associate Professor of Political Science, died after a
long illness. Both professors were exceptionally able teachers and
mentors, and their absence will be noticeable.
Lieutenant Colonels John A. Riley, Associate Professor of
English, and James A. Browning, Associate Professor of Chemistry,
along with MAJ Lynn V. DeMille, USA, Ret., Assistant Professor of
Modern Languages, retired after many years of dedicated service to
th~ col l ege.
All three received emeriti status.
The C.A. Medberry Award, in honor of the late Colonel
Medberry, was awarded to COL Gerald L. Runey, Professor of Biology.

The Citadel Conference on Southern Politics
The Citadel Seminar on Latin American Affairs
17
�Distinguished Physics Lecture
The Inn of Court
The 14 Annual Citadel Helping Professions Workshop
The lOth Annual Citadel Reading Conference
The Citadel Symposium on the South
11. Special Activities
Following state-wide competition, the college received grants
to host five institutes for secondary school teachers of advanced
placement courses in the disciplines of european and US history,
English, biology, and French. The college conducted for the third
year a similar institute, under the auspices of the National
Science Foundation a mathematics course for middle school teachers.
A similar CHE award for physical science teachers went to a course
sponsored by the college's Physics and Education Departments.
The
English Department will host the Charleston Area Writers Project.
B.
Biology
The Department of Biology offers an undergraduate program of
studies leading to the Bachelor of
Science degree
and in
conjunction with the Department of Education, offers the Masters of
Education (M.Ed.) degree with both a major and minor in biology.
Enrollment in the department's undergraduate program fluctuates
between 100-150 students with 16 graduating in May.
Enrollment in
the department's graduate program has increased slightly with
approximately 20-25 students actively working towards the M.Ed.
degree.
For the past eighteen years, the department has offered (47103) Introduction to Botany and (47-104) Introduction to Zoology as
the entry level courses for both the biology major and the nonmajor seeking to complete the eight hours of science required for
graduation.
Starting in the fall semester of the 1987-88 academic
year, the department will offer a two-semester General Biology
sequence for both the major and the non-major. This change will
eliminate the duplication of content found in the old sequence and
facilitate a broader coverage of both lecture and laboratory
material. In addition, this change will bring our introductory
courses into line with a large majority of institutions in the
southeast.
LTC Emory S. Crosby, Jr., was granted a sabbatical leave
during the spring semester of the 1986-87 academic year. Professor
Crosby, using the laboratory facilities of both The Citadel and
Clemson University, has studied methods of controlling several
fungal diseases affecting camellias. MAJ Frank Seabury was awarded
a sabbatical leave for the 1987-88 academic year to work in the
electron microscopy laboratory of
Dr. Charles
Mims at the
University of Georgia.
COL General L. Runey was awarded the
Medbery Award for Outstanding Teaching during the past year.
18
�The biology faculty have remained professionally active. More
than seventy percent of the biology faculty have received either
CDF Research Grants or grants from outside sources during the 198687 academic year. For the second consecutive year, the department
received a grant from the State Department of Education to teach a
graduate
course
for
high
school biology teachers seeking
certification to teach Advanced Placement Biology. The course was
offered during the summer and was team taught by COL Robert E.
Baldwin and Majors B.J. Kelley and T. Clark Bowman.
During the 1986-87 academic year, the Department of Biology,
with CDF support, invited the following biologists to speak to the

Commencement.
Dr. Krishna Dhir, formerly Associate Professor of Management and
Director of the Master of International Management Program at the
University of Denver, has been selected as the new head of the
Department of Business Administration and will join the faculty in
August of 1987. Dr. Thomas Kindel, formerly Associate Professor of
Marketing at the University of Montevallo, has been hired as an
Associate Professor of Business Administration.
Major J. Michael Alford has been awarded tenure and promoted to
Associate Professor, and CMDR Richard T: Pokryfka has been promoted
to Professor. The entire Citadel family was saddened by the deaths
of Colonel Marion S. Lewis, Professor Emeritus, and Colonel Donald
C. Bunch, Associate ~rofessor Emeritus.
The MBA advisory board, comprised of distinguished members of the
Charleston business community, has been active throughout this
academic year, and MBA enrollment continues to increase. Improving
the overall quality and reputation of our MBA Program continues as
a high priority for the department.
Departmental faculty have received various national and regional
professional recognitions. CMDR RichardT. Pokryfka continued his
work on
a $450,000,
multi-year research contract from the
Department of Defense to assess specific implementations of local
area network architectures and relational database machines in a
military environment. LTC Spivey has performed research in the
Republic of Panama under a Fulbright Fellowship and has served as
Visiting Professor of Small Business at the University of Panama.
LTC Robert L. King is serving as vice president for finance and
treasurer of the Academy of Marketing Sciences and executive
secretary of the American Academy of Advertising.
The department has further extended its international perspective
during the year. Under an informal faculty exchange program with
the Academy of Economics in Wroclaw, Poland, the department was
visited by Dr. Maria Myszkowska. In exchange, MAJ Dorothy P. Moore
enjoyed a period of research and lecturing in Poland at the close
of the spring term.
Dr. Robert L. King attended international
20
�conferences in Singapore and Taiwan and continued his research
activities at the Academy of Economics in Wroclaw, Poland.

D.
Chemistry
The Chemistry
Department is undergoing some significant
changes. LTC James A. Browning will retire on 30 June after 35
years on the faculty.
Dr. James R. Blanton from Texas A & M
University will fill his position. Dr. Lois A. Dixon resigned in
the fall and will be replaced by Dr. Thomas H. Richardson. Dr.
Gregory A. Brewer resigned in the spring to accept a position at
Catholic University; a replacement will be sought in the fall. The
department's custodian and laboratory manager, Mr. Darryl D. Skow,
will retire on 30 June, and replacement is presently being sought.
In addition to these staff changes, the department made some
significant curriculum changes. The effect of these changes is to
make our two degree curricula more flexible and more responsive to
the need of students in a liberal arts college.
During the years Doctors Brewer and May continued their
significant research.
Dr. Brewer presented two papers at the
national American Chemical Society meeting in Denver.
Dr. May
presented a paper at the national meeting of the American Society
of Civil Engineers in New Orleans.
Both professors were the
recipient of CDF grants during the year, Dr. May having been
designated a CDF Faculty Fellow.
The department was the recipient of a generous CDF grant for
the purchase of equipment. With these funds, a Varian Instruments
Model 3400 Gas Chromatograph and a Perkin Elmer Model 1430 Infrared
Spectrophotometer were purchased.
Both instruments will be used
for instruction and for research.
Another CDF grant permitted us to invite Dr. Russell S. Drago
of the University of Florida to visit the department for a whole
day and to present a major seminar to students, faculty, and
guests. Dr. Drago is an internationally known inorganic chemist.
Cadet Keith Harbol, a senior B.S. chemistry major, presented a
paper at the South Carolina Academy of Science meeting and was
given an award for the best undergraduate paper at the meeting.
The paper reported on research done last summer at Clemson
University under the direction of Dr. Darryl DesMarteau. Cadet
Harbol will enter graduate school in chemistry at the University of
Utah in the fall.
The department has three students graduating this year--one
will enter graduate school in chemistry, one will enter law school,
and the third will enter the Air Force. After graduation, we will
21
�have 24 majors of whom 9 are pursuing
seeking the B.A. degree.

Civil Engineering
During the year, the Civil Engineering program was evaluated
and given full approval by the South Carolina Commission on Higher
Education.
The program quality was rated as excellent. The
consultant team responded positively to a formal study prepared by
the Civil Engineering Department and recommended a reevaluation of
the State Formula for Appropriations as being unfair apparently to
engineering faculty at undergraduate colleges such as The Citadel.
A progress report to the Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology (ABET) was also prepared and submitted to extend the
accreditation of the Civil Engineering program to 1991.
A departmental curriculum study was conducted and several
important revisions made.
These adjustments include the addition
of a freshman year course in Engineering Design and Analysis, a
junior course in Modeling of Civil Engineering Systems, and a
senior year Comprehensive Project
Design
course
in either
Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Structural
Engineering, or Engineering Practice.
The
requirement for
surveying and thermodynamics instruction is being reevaluated.
Approximately $80,000 in funding by The Citadel Development
Foundation was provided and expended for additional state-of-theart academic laboratory equipment procurement. With this funding,
the CDF continued to account for significant enhancements of the
Civil Engineering program.
The student chapter, American Society of Civil Engineers, won
a national ASCE Certificate of Commendation Award for the 1986-87
academic year, the eleventh such distinction in as many years. CPT
Kenneth B. Brannan is faculty advisor, and CPT Russell H. Stout is
assisting.
Under the direction of the faculty advisor, Dr. Harry
C. Saxe, the Sigma Iota Delta fraternity has completed and
submitted The Citadel's application for a chapter of Chi Epsilon,
the national Civil Engineering honorary fraternity.
LTC Charles Lindbergh delivered
the engineering keynote
address to the Third United States Conference on Earthquake
Engineering. Many students and faculty participated in this major
event attended by more than 520 scientists and engineers from
throughout the United States and 33 foreign countries.
Colonel
Lindbergh
was
also
responsible
for
all conference local
arrangements and was awarded its Honor Award by the Earthquake
Engineering Research Institute for his service. COL Thomas C.
Evans was elected president of the Southeastern Section, American
Society for Engineering Education.
LTC Thomas J. Anessi was
elected president, Eastern Branch, South Carolina Section, American
Society of Civil Engineers.
22
�A Multihazards Engineering Research Institute was started with
fund support from the U.S. Geological Survey. Colonel Lindbergh is
president, Mr. W. Alex Dallis is executive director, and Mr.
Richard Kent is director of engineering.
The MERI is to provide
wind, seismic, and coastal engineering technology to South Carolina
and its Lowcountry region.
Building
code development and
seismic/wind strengthening of schools are being given highest
priority.
A program proposal was developed and approved to offer the
full civil and electrical engineering undergraduate programs during
the evenings. Like the regular day programs, the evening programs
may be completed within a four-year period. The new program starts
in August 1987.
Two new faculty joined the department:
Dr. Kenneth P.
Brannan,
Environmental

Institute & State University,
and
Dr.
Thomas
CPT
Geotechnical Engineering from the University of Dayton.
Russell H. Stout, Jr., was promoted to associate professor and
raised in rank to major.
F.
Education
The Department
of Education was very active this year
examining and rev1s1ng its graduate curriculum.
The department
compared its graduate programs with others and also solicited
advice from practitioners in the areas for which we prepare
students to determine if the experiences and courses given to
students were the most appropriate.
In addition, the accrediting
agencies with
which we deal, the National Council for the
Accrediting of Teacher Education and the State of South Carolina
approval process
through the
National Association of State
Directors of Teacher Education and Certification standards, have
both modified their standards; therefore, a reexamination of
programs in light of those changes was necessary.
The result of this work is a new graduate curriculum approved
by the Graduate Council in February which will take us through the
next few years. In each of our programs, new courses and new
requirements have been added.
It is the belief of the Department
of Education that the new curriculum adds significantly to the
quality of our graduate programs and puts our graduates in an even
better position than they have been in the past to assume
leadership positions.
The department sought and hired an additional faculty member
for 1987-88. Dr. Donald E. Beers, a 1967 Citadel graduate, will be
an associate professor of education next year. Dr. Beers completed
a doctorate at the University of Tennessee and has most recently
been Deputy Superintendent of Schools in Charleston County. He
brings to the Department of Education expertise in the areas of
curriculum, research, statistics, and educational administration.
23
�;
Enrollment in the department has increased during the year.
The Department of Education had approximately 872 students enrolled
in the graduate courses in the Fall of 1986.
The Education faculty was active throughout the year. They
were involved in a variety of professional activities including
faculty development workshops and institutes, presenting papers,
publishing articles, conducting a Reading Conference, and service
to area schools including participation in the Teacher Cadet
Program of the South Carolina Teacher Recruitment Task Force.
Quality is the watchword of the Department of Education. In
order to maintain it and to enhance it, the department has been
active in curriculum revision, professional and scholarly activity,
participation in statewide activities, and most import, outstanding
teaching. The department looks back at the year with pride and
forward to the challenges of 1987-88.
G.
Electrical Engineering
One hundred and fifty-six students majored in electrical
engineering this year.
This is an 18 percent decrease in
enrollment over the previous year.
Twenty-four cadets and eight
veteran students were graduated in May 1987.
Several seniors are
expected to meet graduation requirements in August.
The South
Carolina Commission
on Higher Education has
authorized the offering of the degrees of Bachelor of Science in
Civil Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering
in The Citadel Evening College beginning August 1987. The response
to early announcements and advertisements has been encouraging.
The Twenty-First Annual Razor Lecture was presented by Dr.
John W. Peeples, Citadel 1971, Director
of Operations, NCR
Engineering and Manufacturing, Columbia, S.C.
Dr. Peeples heads
the most profitable of the 22 manufacturing units of NCR.
His
professional accomplishments
are a
source of pride to the
department and an inspiration to our students.
The Verson Foundation Fund reached a level that will support
scholarship grants to electrical engineering majors of $2,000 per
year.
These scholarships honor the
founding head
of the
department, COL Charles Thurston Razor, and were established by
Melvin Verson, Citadel 1948.
The Power Engineering Educators and Industry Group of the
Southeastern Electric Exchange has established a scholarship grant
of $1,000 for a student planning a career in power.
This
scholarship is made available to our students in recognition of the
excellent power education program
at
The
Citadel
and in
appreciation of the contribution of Professor Harold W. Askins,
Jr., to the Modern Power Systems Analysis course sponsored annually
24
�by the Southeastern Electric Exchange at Auburn University.
The faculty continues to build a record of scholarly and
professional achievement. Professor Askins was again invited to be
one of the principal lecturers in a Modern Power Systems Analysis
course at Auburn University. He attended a technical conference of
the Southeastern Electric Exchange in New Orleans as a guest of
South Carolina Electric and Gas Company, and he as appointed an
IEEE Program Evaluator to assist the Accreditation Board for
Engineering and Technology (ABET) in the evaluation of electrical
engineering programs.
Associate Professor Louis D. Dornetto has
been promoted to professor of Electrical Engineering, effective
August 1987.
Professor Dornetto received a CDF Outstanding
Teaching Award for 1986-87. Assistant Professor Jack A. Stinson,
Jr., has been promoted to associate professor of Electrical
Engineering, effective August 1987. Professor Stinson received the
Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in August 1986.
All faculty
members continue to perform as dedicated teachers, conscientious
counselors,
valued
members
of the academic community, and
professional engineers.
H.
English
During the current year, the English Department maintained its
steady progress in terms of teaching, scholarship, and community
service. The reputation of our teaching faculty has continued to
attract a fair share of majors, the number rising to 87. The
faculty remains heavily engaged in every phase of scholarly
activity.
Both the freshman and sophomore committees engaged in rev1s1on
of their sequence courses:
Composition and Literature and Major
British Writers.
Standard course descriptions have been produced
that reflect these changes.
In preparation for next year, the
Curriculum Committee has reorganized the sophomore courses and
revised the sequencing of several courses in B and C groups. The
Hiring Committee successfully completed a search for two new
faculty: Dr. Peter Mailloux (Ph.D., Berkeley) and Dr. Margaret M.
Lally (Ph.D., Case Western Reserve).
For the first time, the
department has appointed, under Dr. Robert A. White, a standing
Committee on Graduate Affairs, that worked with the Graduate
Director to finalize the new M.A. proposal.
The Tenure and
Promotion Committee gave favorable recommendations for tenure and
promotion to Associate Professor to CPT David G. Allen and for
promotion to Professor for both LTC Philip W. Leon and MAJ Robert
A.
White.
All
recommendations
were
unanimously
and
enthusiastically forwarded to CATPA which concurred in the cases of
Allen and Leon. CPT David S. Shields emerged as the faculty member
who scored highest for teaching effectiveness, but he has another
year to complete before attaining eligibility for a college
teaching award.
On
the
scholarly
front,
the
25
department
has nine books in
�press; each of the following has a book that will appear before
Christmas 1987:
Brennan, Lally, Mailloux, Leonard, Rembert, and
Rhodes, while
Professor Tucker
has three
books in press.
Professors White and Allen have also received a provisional
acceptance for their collection of conference papers from the
Syracuse University Press.
Two other professors are nearing
completion of books. During the current year, Professor Tucker
published his monograph with The Citadel Press (Coram Paribus:
Images of the Common Lawyer in Romantic and Victorian Literature),
and Celia C. Halford published her novel (The Treasure of Pawley's
Island). Dr. Shields' edition of Carolina, or the Planter, by
George Ogilvie, was published as a supplementary volume of The
Southern Literary Journal.
English faculty
also delivered
seventeen scholarly
papers at various regional and national
conferences, one each by White, B. Allen, O'Neil, Rembert, Edwards,
and Tenney; two each by D. Allen, Leonard, Rhodes, and Shields; and
three by Tucker.
Departmental faculty also published three
articles and eight reviews, not to mention three radio broadcasts
and two televised interviews.
As a measure of sharing their
scholarship, the following faculty also delivered papers for the
new Symposium series:
Tucker, B. Allen, D. Allen, Edwards,
Leonard, Tenney, Rembert, Halford, Tucker, and Eesley (from Modern
Languages).
The department has also
excelled
in
other
forms of
scholarship.
For example, David G. Allen won a $2500 grant from
the South Carolina Arts Commission for his leadership of the
Lowcountry Writers program that brought three authors to this
campus during the academic year. Professor Holbein coordinated the
activities for
the English Seminar program on Shakespeare's
Birthday. The address was delivered by Professor Phoebe S. Spinrad
of Ohio State University. Professors White and Allen have already
begun the extensive preparations required for the second Medieval
and Renaissance conference next year.
Professor Suzanne Edwards
was elected President of the Victorians Institute, Professor Rhodes
continues as Vice President of the Southeastern Nineteenth-Century
Studies Association, and Professor Tucker served this year as the
President of the South Carolina Association of Departments of
English.
Succeeding our own Professor O'Neil, Professor Rembert
assumed the Secretary/Treasurer's position of the Southeastern
Eighteenth-Century Studies Association and edited three issues of
the newsletter. Professor Edwards brought out the first edition of
the new journal Nineteenth-Century Studies.
Professor James
Leonard has assumed the editorship of the Mark Twain Circular, the
newsletter of the Mark Twain Circle of the Modern Language
Association, while Professor Tenney continues his editorship of the
Mark Twain Journal.
In the service area, Jack Rhodes has assumed the Directorship
of the new Citadel Honors Program and has worked steadily towards
the initiation of this program in the Fall semester of 1987.
Professor Holbein served as Adviser-in-Chief of The Citadel Inn of
Court, and Professor Tucker organized for the Inn the introduction
of a new Humanities Institute that met in September at Bonneau
26
�Ferry and in February at Camp St. Christopher.
He ran the LSAT
Preparation Workshop and worked with eight cadets who participated
in the National Intercollegiate Mock Trial Tournament in Des
Moines, Iowa, in which The Citadel placed fourth. Professor Tucker
is a member of the Planning Committee for the National Tournament.
Professor Rhodes served as a marker at the Advanced Placement
meeting at the Educational Testing Service program in Princeton,
N.J.
Professors Holbein and Edwards served on the Steering
Committee for the Charleston Area Writing Project that has found a
semi-permanent home at The Citadel, and Professor Edwards has now
twice proven successful in bringing the Advanced Placement Workshop
for English Teachers to our campus. Professor Holbein served as a
marker for the state program on the Education Entrance Essay
required of all teacher candidates.
Five professors have earned research funds from The Citadel
Development Foundation, and Professor Tucker has been granted a
sabbatical for 1987-88.
Professor Leon was also awarded a
sabbatical but had to turn it down in order to accept a post at
West Point where he will serve for three-to-five years as Senior
Advisor on Reserve Affairs to the Superintendent of the U.S.
Military Academy.
After twenty-two years of service to The
Citadel, Professor John Riley has decided to retire and has been
awarded emeritus status. Professor Tony N. Redd will be serving as
Acting Head of the English Department for the coming academic year.
I.
History
By stressing the importance of cause and effect in the
cyclical growth and decline of civilization, the History Department
attempts to acquaint the student with his heritage and give him an
insight into the problems of the modern world. We encourage the
use of essays in testing so that our graduates may learn to
organize their thoughts and to express them with clarity. We are
happy to report that this department thus prepares its graduates
for success in many fields; they range across the career spectrum
from medical student to bishop.
Our faculty maintained its usual reputation for superior
performance.
In pursuit of the department's effort to support the
concept of an undergraduate college in which the faculty assume
particular responsibility for the development of their charges,
several members of this department served as advisors for cadet
groups.
The entire department demonstrated its scholarly bent
through research activities of which several publications were the
result. Three professors currently have books under contract. The
History Forum enriched the department's offerings by serving as
host for guest speakers.
In April, with Majors W.B. Moore, Jr.,
and J.F. Tripp as co-directors, The Conference on the South brought
another group of scholars distinguished in their fields to the
campus.
27
�COL L.H. Addington was appointed a CDF Fellow for the third
time, and COL W.G. Nichols for the first time. COL W.L. Harris
assisted the Political Science Department in the organization of
the Conference on Latin American Affairs. COL D. Porch spent the
year as Visiting Professor at the Naval War College where his
performance was _so well received that he was invited to stay for a
second year. I am pleased to report that he declined the offer and
is returning to The Citadel. LTC J.W. Gordon published The Other
Desert War: British Special Forces in North Africa 1940-1943. MAJ
Tripp was promoted to professor.
Unfortunately, CPT J.P. Thomas
resigned unexpectedly in the middle of the year; he will be
replaced in the fall by CPT Jane C. Bishop, a splendid lecturer
whose scholarly record
and
academic
credentials
are very
impressive, indeed.
J.
Mathematics and Computer Science
The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers a
wide variety of courses in an effort to meet the demands of a
rapidly changing age of technology.
Service courses are offered
for the entire college as well as degree programs in mathematics
and computer science.
The number of majors in mathematics and computer science
decreased to approximately 150 students who were pursuing degrees
from among the seven degree options offered.
The number of
undergraduates rece1v1ng a bachelor's degree was 54 in May 1987.
Several others expect to complete requirements by August.
In conjunction with the Department of Education, graduate
courses for middle and secondary teachers continue to be offered in
the evening along with evening undergraduate courses for the
Evening College program. Professors Hoyle and Hurd taught courses
for middle/secondary teachers which were funded by the State
Department of Education through the Educational Improvement Act.
The department received a $36,000 grant from the Commission on
Higher Education to fund a pilot project designed to improve the
mathematics teaching skills of middle school and secondary general
mathematics teachers. Professor Denig taught the third of the
three-year program for 7-9 grade teachers which is part of the NSF
sponsored South Carolina Professional Development Program for
science and mathematics teachers.
As in the past, The Citadel Development Foundation has
enhanced the department with grants to
individuals and the
department.
Professor Stephen Comer continued as a CDF Fellow
while Professors Cohn, Durgun, Greim, Hurd, Riedel, Trautman, and
Zahid all received research grants.
Thanks to a CDF grant, the
department enjoyed another outstanding year of colloquia and
seminars which provided stimuli for both students and faculty.
As evidenced by the number of research grants mentioned above,
the scholarly activity in the department continued to increase.
28
�Professors Comer and Cohn gave papers at the International Congress
of Mathematicians, and Professor Greim presented a paper at an
international meeting in Czechoslovakia. Papers have been accepted
for publication from Professors Cohn, Comer, Greim, Hurd, and
Riedel.
Fifteen of the eighteen faculty members attended a
professional meeting or workshop in 1986-87.
Two new professors completed their first year at The Citadel
in 1986-87.
Professors Hughes Hoyle, who came from the University
of North Carolina in Greensboro, received his Ph.D. from the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in topology. Professor
David Trautman, who came to The Citadel from Ohio State University,
received his Ph.D. from the University of Missouri in functional
analysis. Dr. Lonita Spivey was a temporary assistant professor
for 1986-87.
Professor Andre Deutz will be returning to the department from
Cornell University, where he spent a one-year leave of absence on a
DANA Foundation Grant to work on a Master's degree in Computer
Science.
Professor Ingraham will return
to the department
following a sabbatical leave spring semester, 1987. The department
regrets to announce the resignation of CPT Carlie Coats who took a
position in industry.
K.
Modern Languages
During the past year, our department has made special efforts
to provide varied educational opportunities to students.
The
faculty have ' been dedicating themselves to seeing that their
students use more of the foreign language in the classroom.
We are continually making plans to make more effective usage
of the Language Laboratory under the directorship of MAJ Joseph F.
Gundel. Thanks to increased interest in foreign languages in the
state and nation, we are also looking forward to developing the
language skills of recent high school graduates who will have had
language learning experience in the high school.
These new
directions of the department have already resulted in more language
exposure in the elementary and intermediate programs, an increase
in the enrollment in the upper-level course, an increase of majors,
and an increase in cadets' professionalism. Since the institution
of our study abroad programs, over fifty cadets have studied in
France and Spain, ably directed by Captains 0. Robert Emory and
Anne Eesley. Language majors have tutored as volunteers as Burke
High School.
Cadets P. Foster and M. McAnally taught a course in
Spanish to children at James Simmons Elementary School.
Cadet
Cottros read
a paper
at the First National Conference on
Undergraduate Research; and Cadets Campbell, Wingfield, and Cottros
also
had
their
research
papers discussed in one of two
presentations by CPT Christopher R. McRae at the annual meeting of
the North and South Carolina Association of Linguistics.
Professional activities of the faculty are also on the
increase. In addition to faculty activities already mentioned, CPT
29
�McRae did research in France. LTC J. Harmann Pieper, III, visited
France; and MAJ Grant B. Staley read a paper at the Asociacion
Internacional de Hispanistas in Berlin. CPT Emory was president of
the Southeast American Society for French 17th Century Studies and
chaired the proceedings of the conference which was held at The
Citadel last fall. CPT Eesley read a paper at the Kentucky Foreign
Language Conference at Lexington and COL D.D. Johnson was elected
chair of the Minor and Median Romance Languages Section of the
South Atlantic Modern Language Association and read a paper at the
North American Catalan
Society
conference
held
in Tampa.
Professors Emory, Johnson, McRae, and Staley all had articles or
reviews in print this year; and most notable was CPT Eesley's
article published in Celestinesca.
CDF support made possible many departmental activities, such
as the department's
hosting
a
meeting
with
the Circulo
Hispanoamericano of Charleston, as well as many of the cadets' and
professors' activities previously described.
The CDF is an
integral part of the department's development and has inspired us
to seek outside funding for our activities. For example, CPT McRae
won his second grant from the National Endowment of the Humanities
to pursue his studies of 19th Century French Literature at
Berkeley.
The
faculty
continues
to
play
key roles in campus
responsibilities--notable are Professors Pieper
and Emory as
company academic advisors, Staley as chairman of the Fine Arts
Committee, LTC Frank D. Frohlich as a member of CATPA, and Pieper
as faculty advisor to the Catholic Parish.
During the year, the department and some of the staff reached
certain milestones. CPT McRae received a grant to teach a special
graduate course in French Civilization and Culture last summer.
Professors McRae and Staley taught our first regular graduate-level
courses last spring. In June, under a state grant, CPT McRae with
adjunct professor Ellen Friedrich taught an Advanced Placement
course to high school teachers.
The year was also marked by personal achievements. LTC
Frohlich was awarded the Outstanding Teaching Award; Captains Emory
and McRae were granted tenure and promoted to associate professors;
Ellen Friedrich, who was an adjunct professor last year, has been
appointed to a one-year term as visiting instructor. MAJ Lynn V.
DeMille retired after twenty-one years' service to the Citadel and
received emeritus status. We will miss him and wish him well.
L.
Physical Education
The
Department
of
Physical
Education enjoyed another
productive year in programming and faculty development.
COL Frank
L. Feigl completed certification in the Program for Effective
Teaching (P.E.T.), edited the new revision of the departmental
30
�text, Foundations of Fitness and Exercise, and continued his
editorial review role with the South Carolina Journal of Health,
Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance (SCJOHPERD). COL Melvin
H. Ezell, Jr., continued in his role as exercise director and
department liaison
to the cooperative Cardiac Rehabilitation
Program conducted with the Medical University of South Carolina.
COL Ezell co-hosted a Cardiac Rehabilitation Workshop on our
campus. MAJ D. Eugene Styles received the Outstanding Teaching
Award for the college, coordinated the graduate program for the
department, and served as an academic advisor for G Company.
MAJ
Gary L. Wilson wrote a technical report for the Charleston County
Police Department, gained certifications from the American Red
Cross for new programs in Life Saving and Water Safety, and
attended the Aerobics Institute in Dallas, Texas, the Southern
District
American
Alliance
for Health, Physical Education,
Recreation, and Dance Convention in Birmingham, and the National
AAHPERD in Las Vegas, Nev.
MAJ Wilson served on the Southern
District AAHPERD Health Division Executive Board.
LT John S.
Carter has completed all of the course work for the doctoral
degree. LT Carter cataloged all the departmental library holdings
and generated the order for the special $10,000 departmental
acquisitions. LT Carter coordinated the pre-matriculation healthrelated fitness testing and the upperclass remediation program.
Mr. Eddie Teague retired at the end of the school year 1986-87 but
will remain on the faculty as an adjunct professor. The department
feels fortunate to have a man of his caliber with highly regarded
career experiences in physical education and sport.
The department hosted Mrs. Heather Ward at a seminar on
Aerobic Conditioning, Dr. Cass Ryan at a seminar on Nutrition, and
Mr. Don Newcombe at a campus-wide seminar on alcohol abuse. COL
Ezell hosted a group afflicted with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
COL
John P. Smyth hosted a CDF workshop for heads of physical education
departments at our sister institutions of higher education in South
Carolina.
The department adopted the new NCATE guidelines which will
require all subsequent teacher education majors to graduate with a
minimum of a 2.5 G.P.A.
The department has a senior seminar
requirement for determining exit competencies of all majors. Cadet
Russell L. Campbell was recognized as winner of the Keith E.
Hamilton Award as outstanding physical education major.
He
received similar recognition from the department for the National
Association for Sport and Physical Education.

The Intramural Sports Program enjoyed another year of full
participation in all phases. LTC Eugene F. Lesesne and CPT Samuel
G. Evans, III, led the Corps to continued prominence in the
National Honorary Athletic Fraternity, Sigma Delta Psi. Seven new
members and one repeat member qualified for the Corps' Epsilon Beta
31
�Chapter in 1986-87.
Cadet James M. Uschelbec won the award for
Outstanding Intramural Athletic Officer, and Cadet Stephen J.
Bontell was
selected as the Outstanding Intramural Athletic
Sergeant. Cadet Thomas Y. Barton, III, won the award for the
Outstanding Intramural Athlete of 1986-87. "A'' Company won the
Regimental Championship and the accompanying Board of Visitors'
Trophy and Plaque.
The Citadel
Sports Clubs were successful in presenting
opportunities for
cadet participation
in 15 intercollegiate
activities.
The Lacrosse Club won eight of their nine games,
losing only to a Division I ACC team; and the Pistol Club again
brought national recognition to The Citadel with one All-American
and a National Championship in the ROTC Division and second in the
overall Open Championships.
The Sports Club Banquet featured
representatives of each club
capturing well
the spirit of
participation and opportunity which separates club sports from the
world of intercollegiate scholarship athletics.
The banquet
attendees were inspired by an outstanding talk by MGEN James A.
Grimsley, Jr.
There is sufficient interest to organize two new
clubs during the 1987-88 school year--a Volleyball Club and a
Swimming Club.
M.
Physics
This 1986-87
year for
the Department
of Physics
highlighted
by
several
outstanding
events,
honors,
acquisitions, including:
was
and
1. The 1987 Distinguished Physics Lectures, a series of
public lectures and informal discussions on General Relativity
presented by Professor Kip S. Thorne. Dr. Thorne is the William R.
Keenan
Professor
of
Theoretical Astrophysics at California
Institute of Technology. He is a co-author of "Gravitation," the
text from which most of the younger generation of physicists and
astronomers learned general relativity theory, and he developed
much of the mathematical formalism by which astrophysicists analyze
t he generation of gravitational waves by highly nonlinear cosmic
sources. Dr. Thorne's two public lectures at The Citadel on 21 and
22 April were "Black Holes, White Holes, Worm Holes, and Tunnels
through Hyperspace;" and "Gravitation Waves: A New Window onto the
Universe."
2. Establishment of a federally funded summer course for
secondary school teachers. This workshop was a cooperative effort
between Dr. Patrick R. Briggs of the Physics Department and Dr.
William R. Williams of the Education Department who jointly
developed the course and taught it through the period of 14-31 July
1986.
Funded by a $26,200 federal grant from the Commission on
Higher Education and Public Law 98-377, the workshop was titled
"Design and Use of Physical Science Experiments in Secondary
Schools" and had 20 participants selected from 56 applicants.
Experiments were designed by the workshop directors, and the
32
�equipment was constructed in the Physics Department shop by Mr.
Braxton Simmons, electronics technician.
The workshop will be
repeated in the summer of 1987.
3.
Notification by NSF that the Physics Department at The
Citadel is to participate in a $170,000, three-year grant for a
four-college
automated
photoelectric
telescope designed for
astronomical training and research with Dr. Saul J. Adelman of the
Physics Department as co-investigator.
The 30-inch, reflecting
telescope is of international quality and will be accessed for
research by the College of Charleston, University of Nevada (Las
Vegas), and Villanova University, as well as The Citadel.
The
grant period is from 15 April 1987 to 30 September 1990, and the
grant provides $50,000 for astronomy research and $20,000 for
instrumentation during the first year, with an additional $20,000
in cost-matching funds coming from the four participating schools.
In each of the second and third years, the grant provides $50,000
for research.
4. The award of a three-year, $60,000 grant by the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration to Dr. Saul J. Adelman as
principal investigator on a project for analyses of elemental
abundances in stellar objects. This grant, entitled "Photographics
Region Elemental Analyses," extends through the period 1 June 1987
to 31 May 1990 and includes $24,000, cost-matching funds for
computer equipment.
5. Two special projects for Lowcountry high school students
using Physics Department facilities at The Citadel:
a.
Students in the physical science class at Rivers
Middle School visited The Citadel on a monthly basis to perform
special experiments designed for them by department members.
b.
Coastal Carolina MENSA met thrice weekly in the
Physics Department to prepare for nationwide "Odyssey of the Mind"
competition for high school students. Their construction project-a structure of 1/8-inch, balsa wood strips designed to support
maximum load
within narrowly
prescribed dimensions--won the
regional competition with area students representing both public
and private schools.
6. Acquisition of several major equipment items for the basic
physics laboratories. With CDF funds, the department purchased 18
Fluke 37 bench portable digital multimeters, a very versatile
device used in many basic laboratory experiments.
CDF funds and
general ledger account funds were combined to purchase four (4)
Tektronix 2230
oscilloscopes
for
use
in
the Electronics
Instrumentation course and in Advanced Laboratory. An occupational
safety hazard was arrested by a special allocation to purchase a
set of 18 new induction coil power supplies with high voltage
shield.
Members of
the department
were actively
33
engaged in research
�during the year.
Dr. Joel Berlinghieri held a summer research
fellowship at the Medical University of South Carolina where he
devised flash
photolysis techniques
in transient absorption
spectroscopy associated with a project directed by Dr. John W.
Ledbetter of the Department of Biochemistry at MUSC. Dr. Patrick
R. Briggs consulted with the Applied Physics Laboratory of Johns
Hopkins University and developed software for reduction of data
from the IMP-80 satellite.
Dr. Saul J. Adelman published ten
papers during the year and had five more in press, the culmination
of the previous two years as a research associate at NASA Goddard
Space Flight Center while on sabbatical leave and leave of absence.
Dr. Peter J. Rembiesa published a major article in theoretical
physics on renormalization techniques in quantum electrodynamics,
and he presented a paper at the 1987 spring meeting of the American
Physical Society.
He was also tenured and promoted to associate
professor with the military rank of major.
Dr. Joel C. Berlinghieri was president of the Faculty Council
during the 1986-87 year and delivered the commencement address
during the 1986 summer school graduation. Dr. Mary Morton-Gibson,
who temporarily replaced Dr. Adelman while he was on leave,
accepted a position at Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania.
N.
Political Science
The Department of Political Science offers a flexible major
which permits each student to concentrate his study in the area of
his interest while at the same time affording him an opportunity to
obtain a broad liberal arts education that will enrich his life,
acquaint him with the rights and responsibilities of citizenship,
and prepare him for a satisfying career.
Graduates of the department enter military service, public
administration, law, graduate and professional schools, and federal
and state government.
In order to prepare graduating seniors for
graduate and law schools and professional employment, seminars and
workshops are conducted annually on the Foreign Services, Graduate
Record Examination, Law School Admission Test, and Civil Service
employment.
The first major rev1s1on of the department's curriculum in the
last twenty years was implemented in the Fall of 1985 and continues
to be well received by the students.
This revision brought our
courses into line with recent trends in the discipline while
maintaining the fundamentals of a sound liberal arts education.
Basically, it develops three alternative areas of concentration:
(A) American Government and Politics, (B) International Politics
and Military Affairs, and (C) Law and Criminal Justice. The smooth
implementation of this restructuring of the Political Science
curriculum is a major accomplishment of the department.
Extracurricular
activities
are
34
an
important
part
of
our
�students• education.
For the first time last year, several
Political Science students attended the Fourth Annual Conference
with Former Secretaries of State sponsored by the Southern Center
for International Studies.
As is customary, the department
supported the conferences held at the Military, Naval, and Air
Force Academies by sending student representatives. With the help
of their faculty advisor, cadets are required to engage in
extensive preparations before attending these conferences. Student
organizations such as Pi Sigma Alpha (Political Science Honor
Society), Sigma Iota Rho (International Honor Society), Political
Science Club, South Carolina Student Legislature and the Debate
Team all received strong support from the departmental faculty.
A new initiative this year was a weekend workshop for freshman
Political Science majors.
The workshop included speakers from a
wide variety of areas and gave the students an opportunity to
discuss broadly based social and political issues. The twenty-five
freshman Political Science majors who participated were selected
because of
their high
SAT scores
and performance in the
Introduction to Political Science course.
The Internship program continues to be extremely successful
and provides students an opportunity to apply what they learn in
the classroom in various governmental agencies.
During 1986-87
students served internships with the City of Charleston Mayor 1 s
Office, the Charleston County Administrator 1 s Office, the City of
Charleston Police Department, the 9th Circuit Solicitor 1 s Office,
the Medical University of S.C. Administrator 1 s Office, and the City
of Charleston 1 s Crime Laboratory.
The Departmental Speaker Seminars brought important political
leaders and scholars to the campus.
Ambassador Nick Veliotes,
former Ambassador
to Egypt
and Jordan, discussed U.S.-Arab
relations.
Ambassador William B. Jones, former Ambassador to
Haiti, talked about American Foreign Policy in the Carribean Basin
and met with the Afro-American Society on campus.
Ambassador
Richard Walker, former Ambassador to Korea, talked with students in
one class on his experiences in dealing with the media.
Professor
Hal Elliot Wert, Vice President and Acting Dean of the Kansas City
Art Institute, discussed American Foreign Policy and Poland as well
as what he learned from a recent trip to Eastern Europe. Dr. Ted
Rosengarden discussed his recent book, Tombee: A Southern Planter.
Mr. John Maybank, an officer with Robinson-Humphrey Company,
discussed the Problems of Poverty and Wealth in American Society.
Kurt Pitts, with the Baker Hospital Drug Abuse Clinic, spoke to
students of sociology. Dr. Tinsley Eugene Yarbrough, an expert on
the U.S. Constitution, discussed his recent book on Supreme Court
Associate Justice Hugo Black. The Speaker Program provides a wide
variety of enrichment activities for Political Science students at
The Citadel.
The department routinely offers a variety of special courses
each year.
Reuben Greenberg, Charleston Chief of Police, taught a
very popular course on Topics in Law and Criminal Justice.
35
�Ambassador Twinam taught Topics in International Politics with
special emphasis on the Middle East and American Foreign Policy
decision-making.
Next year Dr. Kenneth Baucom will offer a course
on African Politics based on his academic background as an
anthropologist and his 20 years• experience living in South Africa.
Professor Baker has developed a special course on Religion and
American Politics which will be taught next fall. Three members of
the department will team teach a course on the Civil Rights
Movement.
These courses are designed to reflect current political
issues and keep students
abreast of
contemporary political
developments.
The scholarly production of the departmental faculty continues
to be impressive. Professor Milton Boykin, in association with
Professor Louis Zurcher of the University of Texas and Commander
Hardy Merritt, USNR, was coauthor of a book published by Greenwood
Press in 1986 and entitled Citizen-Sailors in a Changing Society:
Policy Issues for Manning the U.S. Naval Reserve. Professor Boykin
and Professor
William Gary
Nichols of The Citadel History
Department are editing a book entitled Arms Control and Nuciear
Weapons with Greenwood Press scheduled to be published early next
year. Another member of the department, Professor Edward Davis,
has contributed a chapter to this book. Ambassador Joseph Twinam
published a chapter entitled "Reflections on Gulf Cooperation, with
Focus on Bahrain, Qatar and Oman" in John A. Sandwick's The Gulf
Cooperation Council: Moderation and Stability in an Independent
World.
Professors Robert Steed, Laurence Moreland, and Tod Baker
edited The 1984 Presidential Election in the South, published in
1986 by Praeger Publishers of New York.
In the spring of 1987,
they completed work on another book, Blacks in Southern Politics,
which is also scheduled for publication by Praeger later in the
year. Professors Baker, Moreland, and Steed are currently engaged
in two major projects--the 1984 party delegate study and a study
dealing with party precinct officials in South Carolina.
These
same professors also published a book chapter entitled "Migration
and Activist Politics" .in Ronald A. Rapoport et.al. The Life of the
Parties: Activists in Presidential Politics.
Professor Davis
pub lishe d an article entitled "Proposals for Joint Chiefs of Staff
Reorganization" in the June 1986 issue of Defense Analysis.
Professors S.A.
Arcilesi and
Paul Benson
are editing the
proceedings of "The 1987 Conference on the Military in Latin
American Politics." All members of the department attended at
least one
professional meeting,
and most were involved in
presenting papers, serving as discussants and chairing panels.
These scholarly activities greatly enrich class presentations and
maintain the currency of the faculty in their respective fields of
specialization.
Individual faculty members have been active in conferences and
professional associations as well as college organizations. The
department hosted the 1986 annual meeting of the South Carolina
Political Science Association in April 1987 with Professor Benson
serving as program chairman in his capacity as Vice President of
the Association. The department continues to sponsor The Citadel
36
�Symposiums of Southern Politics which have become the leading
series of conferences in the nation on scholarly research in
southern politics.
Additionally, the Third Annual Conference on
Latin American Affairs was held for Spring 1987 Citadel students.
Professor Paul Benson was also elected as President of the South
Carolina Political Science Association.
Professor Davis was cochairman of the section on Military Studies of the International
Studies Association.
Professor Laurence Moreland was elected
chairman of The Citadel Faculty Council. Professor Tad Baker was
president of The Citadel Chapter of the AAUP.
Professor Robert
Steed has
been selected
by the Southern Political Science
Association Program Committee to organize the program and panels on
southern politics at
that Association's 1988 annual meeting in
Atlanta. The departmental faculty is pleased to recognize Dr.
Graham Sibery's completion of all requirements for the Doctor of
Philosophy degree at the University of South Carolina.
The Department of Political Science is sensitive to its role
in the
community and
continues to
cooperate with various
organizations such as the Charleston County Library, civic clubs,
and the Higher Education Consortium in providing speakers on such
issues as political campaigning, foreign policy, and the American
Constitution.
The Head of the Department and Ambassador Twiman
provided assistance in community based group composed of leading
citizens concerned
with serious discussions of international
politics. As a service to the community, a workshop was conducted
for Social Science teachers in the Charleston area by members of
the department. These activities extend the teaching function to
the public.
The members of the department were saddened by the death of
Professor Paul Kingston who had been a member of The Citadel
Faculty for thirty years. During this period, he taught courses in
American Government, Public Administration, and Sociology.
He was
particularly well known to several generations of students who
participated in the South Carolina Student Legislature. He will be
greatly missed.

Psychology
The Department of Psychology offers an undergraduate major in
Psychology leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree
and, in
cooperation with the Department of Education, offers two graduate
programs in School Psychology, both leading to the Specialist in
Education (Ed.S.) degree. The undergraduate major in Psychology is
designed to help the student integrate his learnings from a broad
background in the humanities and sciences while introducing him to
psychology as a science and as an applied human service.
The
strategy used for this overall goal is a relatively classical
curriculum which weds the increasingly sophisticated quantitative
research
orientations
with the observational-clinical-applied
tradition. The graduate programs in school psychology are directed.
toward developing specialists who are competent to deal with
37
�psychological and educational problems of children
the psychological milieu of school environments.
and to improve
Fifty-six undergraduate students majored in psychology this
year. Of the eleven May graduates, one applied for and was
admitted to graduate school, one is employed in business, and nine
accepted military commissions: seven Army, one Navy, and one Air
Force.
Our students continue to excel in academic endeavors:
Cadets Bruce Cox, Kenneth Crombie, and Leo Pacher presented
research papers
at the National Conference on Undergraduate
Research, Asheville, N.C.
Psychology majors were involved in
research in a variety of areas, including the effect of light on
shoulder pull strength under various filtration conditions, the
effects of fluorescent lighting on shoulder pull strength, and
light and exposure time on factors affecting grip strength.
Forty-three students are enrolled in our graduate programs in
school psychology.
Three students received the Ed.S. degree, and
two received the M.Ed. degree in May. Ms. Stephanie Holler, a May
graduate, was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi and presented her
research at the annual meeting of the South Carolina Association of
School Psychologists, Myrtle Beach, S.C.
Utilizing CDF funds, the department sponsored one workshop,
"Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale Workshop," and presented three
major seminars:
"Practical Applications of Vocational Assessment
for Counselors and School Psychologists," "Use and Misuse of
Psychological Assessment Data," and "Step Ahead: A Psychological
Rehabilitation Program."
Additional funding from CDF made it
possible to add important experimental equipment to our psychology
laboratory.
During the academic year, 506 undergraduate students and 293
graduate students
enrolled in
psychology courses.
Average
enrollment in undergraduate classes was 22 and in graduate classes
23. Enrolled in the 1987 first summer session were 167 pupils with
an average class enrollment of 21.
Faculty and staff continued to be professionally active.
One
hundred percent of the faculty applied for and received CDF faculty
development grants, and seventy-five percent applied for and
received CDF research grants.
Fifty percent of the faculty
presented papers at the annual meeting
of the Southeastern
Psychological Association, Atlanta, Ga.
One hundred percent
attended local meetings of the Charleston Area Psychological
Association, seventy-five percent attended the joint annual meeting
of the South Carolina Psychological Association and the South
Carolina Association of School Psychologists, and fifty percent
attended meetings of the Low Country
Association of School
Psychologists.
The four full-time faculty members served on 13
standing committees and four ad hoc committees, conducted six major
workshops, and delivered 12 speeches.

year, "The Effect of Light on Shoulder Pull Strength" and directed
three student research projects which were delivered at a national
conference.
He received a CDF Faculty Development Grant to study
biofeedback techniques and medical hypnosis and a CDF Research
Grant to study the effects of light and music on strength. LTC
Aline Mahan received a CDF Research Grant to make a study of
differential performance of learning disabled students and a CDF
Faculty Development Grant to improve her skills in vocational
assessment.
Additionally, she presented several lectures on such
diverse topics as the role of women in the modern church and
fostering mental health in pre-schoolers.
MAJ James Pietrangeli
attended the Ninth Annual Institute on the Teaching of Psychology
and continued his CDF-supported research on a model for the
selection of law enforcement officers. COL Thomas Mahan presented

Medical School.
The department was host for the second consecutive year for
the annual meeting of the Charleston Area Psychological Association
honoring student researchers from the Baptist College, the College
of Charleston, and The Citadel.
There were
nine student
presenters.
Student utilization of the Student Counseling Center increased
by approximately twenty percent. Five hundred and one hours were
devoted to direct, one-on-one counseling with the majority of this
time (354 hours) devoted to personal counseling, with the remainder
devoted to academic, educational, and career counseling. The
Counseling Center continued to be actively
involved in the
evaluation of cadets suspected of having a learning disability.
Three hundred and seventy hours were expended in this activity.

Developmental Activities
The various programs have continued to be very productive
through this past year.
a. The Commission on Higher Education approved the Evening
College request to offer the B.S. in Electrical
Engineering and
the B.S. in Civil Engineering through the Evening College beginning
the fall semester 1987. This
offers
lowcountry
students
an
opportunity to
complete
a
degree
in
engineering without
transferring to Clemson or University of South Carolina.
b.
The Pre-Allied Health Sciences Program attracts very
few students.
Only three students enrolled this year.
This
program is coordinated with the Medical University of South
Carolina for eventual completion of the B.S. degree.
c. The Evening College and Graduate Student Advisory
Council, composed of seven students representing the various
constituencies of the evening programs, met and addressed several
issues of concern to evening and graduate students.
Its
purpose is to provide input from graduate students and evening
undergraduate students with emphasis
on improvement
of the
college's programs.
It is a forum that represents the academic,
administrative, and extracurricular interests
of the Evening
College student body.
d.
An Evening College newsletter was published each
semester providing students with information pertinent to their
programs.
e.
The Graduate programs in the Departments of Biology,
English, History, and French received state approval for the
offering of Advanced Placement courses in each of those respective
disciplines.
f.
A proposal for a Master's Degree in Engineering
Management is in the developmental stages.
Possible courses for
this program were offered in each semester this year in cooperation
with Clemson University's Graduate School.

Admissions
In August of 1986, 651 freshmen matriculated to The Citadel.
Academically, they were a solid group with strong high school
credentials and an average SAT score in excess of 1000.
Once
again, the most sought after areas of study proved to be business
administration and political science
followed by
civil and
electrical engineering.
The freshmen
class was
diverse in its demographic origin with
43
�representation from thirty-five states and four foreign countries.
Minority students, 87% of whom were black, comprised seven percent
of the class. Of the forty-six counties in South Carolina, thirtyseven were represented.
The Office of Admissions/Recruiting continues to receive an
increasing number of inqu1r1es from prospective students.
Oncampus visitation of prospective students dramatically increased as
did requests for participation in our Weekend Visitors Program.
This resulted
in an additional weekend being designated to
accommodate this greater demand.
Applications continue to be
strong in both quality and quantity.
The offices of Admissions and Recruiting were reorganized into
one operation, and an assistant director
and an admissions
counselor joined the staff. Remodeling of the two offices enhanced
the combined operation and provided badly needed space.
S.
Scholarships
Academic scholarships are a significant attraction to highly
qualified high school graduates. They also serve as incentives for
cadets already enrolled in the Corps to make the extra effort to
achieve academic excellence and superior all-around student records
in order to compete for the awards available to them.
For the 1986-87 academic year, awards were made to 122
freshmen, 108 rising sophomores, 91 rising juniors, and 111 r1s1ng
seniors. A total of 432 academic scholarships, ranging in value
from $100 for one year to all expenses for four years, were
awarded. The total value of these scholarships was $815,267.
Of
these awards, $229,516 went to outstanding freshmen, and the
average award for all students was
$1,887.
The academic
scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic standing,
leadership, and other attributes desirable for members of the Corps
of Cadets.
In addition to the academic scholarships, 226 cadets held ROTC
scholarships of with 113 of these awarded by the Army program, 94
by the Naval Science program, and 19 by the Air Force program.
ROTC scholarships pay fees, tuition, books, and laboratory costs,
and each recipient receives a stipend of $100 per month for 10
months of the year. Total monetary value of the ROTC scholarships
was $842,190, plus $1,000 a year per recipient.
Under Category IV (outside scholarships), 64 students received
$51,607.

Student Aid Program
The Financial Aid Year 1986-87 was one of the most difficult
years to administer the federal aid programs because of the
Guaranteed
Student
Loan
(GSL) program being revamped, the
reauthorization of Title IV laws governing aid programs, new
validation procedures, and most importantly, decreases in federal
dollars. These changes have placed a much grea~er responsibility
on the parent to find alternative financing. Notwithstanding, we
have had a successful year.
Under the authorization of the Higher Education act of 1958,
as amended, The Citadel continued to operate six major federally
funded programs during the 1986-87 year:
Fell Grant (FELL),
Perkins
Loan
(Formally
Nation
Direct Student Loan--NDSL),
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), College WorkStudy (CWS), the Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL), and the Plus Loan
(PLUS).
These programs have assisted students with $1,886,278 which
was $161,971 less than the amount in the 1985-86 school year.
In addition to the federal programs, the State of South
Carolina provided $6,000 for Other Race Grants (ORG).
As a supplement to these programs, The Citadel provided aid to
70 students in the amount of $78,913.
The main contributors to
this supplement have been The Citadel Development Foundation (CDF),
through loans and grants, and the Stackhouse Loan Program. Under
the CDF loans, 16 students were assisted with $21,200, and under
the CDF grants, 51 students were aided with $34,563; Stackhouse
loans in the amount of $23,150 were awarded to 19 students.
A grand total of 1,051
from all programs.
students

with $1,971,191
FELL
During the 1986-87 year, the FELL program has made awards
ranging from $200 to $2,100, available to 198 students for a total
of $250,782.
This was a decrease of $75,553 from the previous
year.
This decrease was due to Congress' appropriation of less
money for this program and adjustments in formulas used to
45
�determine the amount of money for which students were eligible. It
is predicted that this trend will continue over the next few years
because of decreases in federal funding.
PERKINS LOAN ( NDSL)
The average loan under the NDSL program this year was $1,184.
This program aided 51 students who were awarded $60,375 in loans.
As of 30 June 1987, a total of $1,131,625 has been loaned to
1051 borrowers. Over the same period, $94,058 has been earned in
interest, and loan repayments have amounted to $762,180. In
dollars, $318,044 represents the outstanding amount of loans in
this program.
This figure excludes $10,420 which was canceled due
to the death of borrowers, and $25,246 which is the portion partly
canceled under the teacher cancellation clause of the NDSL act.
Also, $2,690_ has been canceled because of bankruptcy of borrowers
and $15,247 for military cancellations which were also excluded
from the total amount to be repaid.
Our delinquent NDSL accounts are continuing to be collected by
Todd, Bremer, and Lawson. Our default rate is 542. In addition to
the professional collector, the State of South Carolina permits the
State Treasurer to withhold tax refunds of borrowers who are in
default.
Names of defaulted borrowers were reported to the
Treasurer for collection.
SEOG
The SEOG program, which made money available to our most needy
students, assisted 39 students with grants totaling $20,002.
The
average of these awards was $513.

Under this program, 527 students applied for loans, and these
students were granted $1,221,532 in long-term, low-interest loans.
This year, awards for families with income above $30,000 were based
on need. The amount of the loan was the actual need or $2,500,
whichever was less.
After 17 October 1986, all loans, regardless
of income, required a need analysis.
This has reduced aid for
which students have in the past qualified. With the need analysis
required for everyone, aid through this program will decrease in
the coming years.
PLUS

�Through this program, parents were eligible to borrow up to
$3,000 per year. Repayment began 60 days after the check was
written, and the payment was a minimum of $50 per month. Of those
applying, 110 families utilized this program and received $308,779.
Through the State of South Carolina, $6,000 in grant money was
allotted to
The Citadel to be used for minority students.
Eligibility was based on grade point averages (freshmen needed a
projected 3.0, and juniors and seniors needed 2.0 and 60 hours
earned). Sophomores were ineligible. Eight (8) minority students
were awarded a total of $6,000.
This was an average of $750 per
student.
U.
Computer Center
After a number of years of analysis and planning, The Citadel
has received approval from the state to establish an on-campus
computing facility which will have the capacity to meet both
administrative and instructional computing needs. The new computer
center is being constructed in the old St. Alban's Chapel area, and
administrative servjces offices will be located on the fourth floor
of Bond Hall, adjacent to the new computer center.
The center
itself will be ready for occupancy in late June 1987, and the
office areas will be completed in August 1987.
Estimated cost for establishing and operating
this new
facility for
the first two years (1987-88 and 1988-89) is
approximately $2.6 million with $800,000 of this sum coming from
private sources (a $300,000 grant by the Self Foundation to the
Mark Clark Campaign and a $500,000 supplemental commitment by CDF).
This
new
computing
facility
will
begin
supporting
administrative functions of the college in early July 1987 and will
provide instructional support beginning the fall 1987 semester. It
is expected that by fall semester 1988 this facility will be
providing all administrative and academic computing support for the
college.

Two significant gift collections totaling more than 2,000
titles were received in June, including art, art history, and
history books from the estate of COL Morgan Goodhardt, USAF, Ret.,
former professor of history at The Citadel. His collection of more
than 1,400 books will add many hundreds of fine books in these
areas. The estate of Richard Denison donated many fine military
history books.
A Library Science Program for the certification of school
librarians was proposed to and accepted by the Graduate Council in
February.
A survey of school librarians revealed considerable
interest in the program because no other institution in Charleston
offers a Library Science Program. Given sufficient enrollment, two
courses will be taught next academic year.
The library faculty attended several workshops on library
automation and online data base searching in order to prepare
better for teaching Library Science courses as well as for updating
practical skills and knowledge.
LTC Wood presented papers on
48
�publishing the research article to members of the South Carolina
Library Association and writing the request for proposal for
automated library systems at
the
Higher
Education Network
Association meetings in March and April, respectively. He also
participated in several OCLC automation workshops by SOLINET in
Atlanta.
The staff hosted a SOLINET workshop on cataloging in
March for Consortium OCLC users. CPT Josie Williamson attended the
Resources and Technical Services Division's Acquisitions Regional
Institute in San Antonio, TX, from 4-7 April.
LTC Wood and MAJ
Pyatt attended the American Library Association meeting in San

Archives-Museum
The Archives-Museum has continued to maintain its support of
the academic, research, and fine arts stature of The Citadel. This
department , has
increased
its
holdings,
provided increased
educational services and support, and participated statewide,
nationally and internationally, with research and exhibit support.
The Archives-Museum sustained budget reductions but rendered
comparative services because of increased help by volunteers,
members of the Cadet Museum Committee, and assistance from The
Citadel Development Foundation.
Two competitive grants were
submitted to the Institute for Museum Services to supplement
departmental professional needs.
Work by the Faculty Archives-Museum Committee and the staff of
this department has focused on developing plans for moving this
departmental operation from this facility, which is shared with the
Daniel Library, to a new wing in Mark Clark Hall at a future date.
Both the Archives and Museum holdings have outgrown the current
facility and the Daniel Library is in critical need of space for
expanding library collections and services. Members of the Faculty
Archives-Museum Committee include:
CDR Lyon G. Tyler, chairman;
MAJ L. Cohn; MAJ J.F. Gundel; MAJ H.C. Hudson; MAJ W.B. Moore, MAJ
D.T. Ouzts; and LTC H.B. Alexander.
Archives:
During the past year, the holdings of the Archives expanded by
more than twelve percent. Currently, the Archives houses more than
200 collections in over 1,000 document boxes.
Twenty-nine gifts
were made during this calendar year with the largest collections
being the Davis S. McAlister papers pertaining to his career at The
Citadel and the Sumner Waite Collection which includes Charles de
Gaule's correspondence from 1940-43.
The function of the Archives is not only to collect and
preserve manuscript items, documents, photographs, engravings,
etc., but also to make available this material to researchers.
Among those making use of the archival collections were: Channel 5
used Korean War footage from the Mark W. Clark collections for its
documentary on Korean heart patients; twenty-six photographs were
49
�selected from the Archives
Photographic Collection
for the
historical section in Dan Dry's photographic essay of The Citadel
as part of Harmony House Publishers American College Series;
Professor Robert Herzstein researched the Mark W. Clark papers for
material for his book on Chancellor Kurt Waldheim; and provided
research for Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for its radio
program on Canadian prisoners of war in Fort Laghouat near Algiers
during World War II.
Archivist Jane Yates attended a conference sponsored by
SOLINET on Preservation Planning and Administration,
at the
Charleston Museum 30 April-1 May 1987, as well as the S.C.L.A.
workshop in
Columbia, S.C.,
20 February
1987 on Archival
Preservation and the AMC format.
Museum
Museum activities and contributions have increased during the
past year. Attendance has exceeded 50,000 visitors per year. This
year there was an increase in tour groups from the public and
private school sectors visiting the Museum. Teachers consider the
Museum to be an exploratory environment for their students. During
April, the Department of History's Conference on the South held a
portion of its scholarly meetings in the Museum.
The following
special exhibits were displayed during the past
year:

during the forthcoming year.
In 1979, CPT'Metts served as cadet
president and commander of these organizations.
With the addition of the IBM XT computer to this department,
the National Park Service at Ft. Sumter, with Ranger Charlie Wyatt,
has been most instrumental in helping to implement the Data Base
Plus III program which will assist with research, publication,
exhibit work, and inventory control.
CDR Guy Padgett, USN, a docent research assistant, continues
to provide excellent work with heraldry collection.
He has
assisted us with the development of our computer system and

Writing Center
The Writing Center began operation in the fall of 1984 serving
students, faculty, and administrative · staff.
In the spring of
1985, Rosemary and Peyton Galloway generously endowed The Writing
Center, which ear-marked it as a permanent facility at The Citadel.
Its primary purpose is to provide tutorial assistance for those
students, especially members of the freshman class, whose writing
skills are inadequate.
The Writing Center provides a central place to ask questions,
seek information, .find answers, and receive support and guidance
for any endeavor involving the written language. The Genter has a
full-time director, a word processing instructor, ten professional
tutors, and ten peer-tutors.
This year, the Center had a total
52
�number of 10,503 contacts, up
operation.
from
4,659
in
its
first
year of
Services
a.
Tutoring: Most of the Center's activity involves one-onone tutoring.
Tutorials
are conducted
in accordance with
guidelines approved by the English Department. This year, the
Center provided 2,076 hours of writing instruction.
b. Word Processing:
Fifteen word processors are available
for independent or supervised use. Individual tutorials and group
workshops are offered for those not familiar with word processing.
Students are encouraged to use the Center's word processors for
writing papers in any subject.
A total of 928 hours of word
processing instruction was provided by the Center in the past year.
c.
Resume Writing:
The Writing Center assists students in
writing resumes and cover letters.
A letter quality printer is
available for typing resumes and job-search correspondence.
d. Workshops: Groups instruction is conducted throughout the
year on such topics as "Beginning and Advanced Word Processing,"
"Punctuation and Mechanics," "Essay Test Skills," and "How to
Improve Your Proofreading." The number of workshop hours totaled
52 for this past year.
Students may drop in or call for appointments or be
referred by members of the faculty or staff.
To supplement its
community service, the Center maintains a Grammar Hotline which
receives calls from throughout the nation.
Special Activities
a. Four peer-tutors and two professional tutors attended the
Annual Peer-Tutoring Conference at Georgetown University in the
fall.
b.
Dr. E.F.J. Tucker, Head of the English Department,
received the Center's Outstanding Service Award at the annual Tutor
Recognition Dinner, which is funded through a generous endowment by
W. Peyton Galloway, Citadel Class of 1965.
c.
The Writing Center Director, Captain Angela Willi~~s,
began co-editing FOCUS,
The
Citadel
Development Foundation
Newsletter,
and
attended
the
Southeastern Writing Centers
Conference in Panama City, Fla.
Activity in the Writing Center has more than doubled since its
inception in 1984.
This dramatic rise can be attributed to
increased use of tutorial services by students and faculty and to
the improvement of the word processing facilities and instruction.
53
�AA.
Honors Proaram
The Citadel's new Honors Program will open its doors in the
Fall of 1987.
Fifteen students will make up the first class of
Honors students.
The average SAT score of those selected is 1237
out of a possible 1600 (putting our students in approximately the
97th percentile nationally); the average class rank is in the top
6%; and the average score on the Test of Standard Written English
is 57 out of a possible 60+ (with six students scoring either a 60
or a 60+).
Faculty members have designed freshman-level Honors course
sequences in
the four
academic areas of English, history,
mathematics, and science. Honors students will take three (or,
exceptionally, four) of the sequences offered.
During the coming year, the sophomore-level Honors courses
will be designed, and detailed plans will be finalized for fitting
the course of study of Honors students into the courses of study
for each of the academic majors offered at The Citadel.

ADMINISTRATION
General
School Year 1986-87 was marked with increased emphasis on
the support needs of students and faculty and staff.
Although
appropriated activities for support were funded sufficiently for
current operation, the backlog of deferred maintenance continued
to increase.
Continued emphasis on equipment replacement and
modernization in the auxiliary activities was made.
B.
Accomplishments
The Overall Permanent Improvement Plan for capital improvement
projects was submitted to the Commission on Higher Education for
the five year period starting in Fiscal Year 1988-89.
The number
one and two projects in priority order were Bond Hall Renovation
and Barracks Renovation, respectively.
The dredging of the boating center channel was completed,
thereby allowing water activities to be pursued regardless of the
tide
condition.
This
noteworthy
project
has
increased
the
recreational aspects on the waterfront for all concerned.
The design of McAlister Field House Renovation/Conversion
has been completed and construction is expected to commence in
September 1987.
All of the auxiliary activities met or exceeded revenue
projections with the exception of faculty and staff quarters.
The contract for food service with ARA was renewed this year
at no increase in cost.
This is the second year in a row with
no cost increase for this contract.
This is a saving to cadets
without a decrease in services of food quality or quantity.
The building on the old Trident Tech property was demolished
and the ar e a surveyed for the use of athletic fields.
A small
ditch on the property requires authorization from the Coastal Council
for filling. This is pending at year's end.
The new Master Plan for college facilities has been completed,
printed and d i stributed.
A new head football coach, Charlie Taaffe, formerly assistant
coach at Army, was hired.
A revitalization of the football program
is expected.
Increased emphasis on campus safety and security has resulted
in fewer vehicle accidents on campus and parking citations.
An
increase in thefts on the campus was noted with the majority of
thefts involving unsecured valuables in the barracks.
55
�The computer facility was constructed in the areas formerly
occupied by St. Alban's Chapel and a portion of the offices of
Business Administration Department faculty.
Beneficial occupancy
is planned for the end of the year.
The construction of this
important facility required a great deal of coordination, especially
with the . movement of St. Alban's to the north transept of Summerall
Chapel and relocation of six faculty members' offices to other
locations.
Although there was a three percent cost of living increase
for classified staff, it was disappointing that the longevity program
was discontinued and there were no provisions for a merit program
this year.
The renovations in the Canteen were completed and the new
computer system for inventory control was placed in operation.
The Canteen continues to offer a variety of gifts and services
for cadets as well as faculty, staff and visitors to the campus.
C.
Physical Plant
Staffing changes were minimal with Mr. Wayne Hagenbuch assuming
the
duties
as
the
Chief
of
Services Division.
Significant
improvement in custodial contract performance is occurring.
The Joint Bond Review Committee, at its August meeting, approved
our Annual Permanent Improvement Plan which consisted of four
projects:
(1) PCB Inspection and Removal, $100,000; (2) Lockwood
Field Preparation, $500,000; (3) Athletic and Physical Education
Field Renovation, $150,000; and (4) Concrete Repair of Barracks 1,
2, 3 and 4, $200,000.
In addition, project numbers were given
to Vandiver Hall Project and the Coward Hall Kitchen Renovation
Project. However, during the design phase of the Coward Hall Kitchen
Renovation Project, detailed studies found significant problems
with the facility and project as originally programmed, and it
was recommended by the architect that we abandon the project, provide
for a new food service facility, and demolish the existing building.
The Master Plan for campus development has been approved and
printed.
This is the third version of the Master Plan and reflects
present and future requirements.
The last Master Plan was published
in 1977.

Athletic Affairs
1.
General
The Citadel participated in 11 intercollegiate sports
during the 1986-87 school year.
Over 700 cadets took part in the
athletic program either as squad members, managers, trainers or
student coaches. Six of 11 teams has a break-even winning averages.
Citadel teams continued to show improvement in most aspects,
including the classroom and on the playing field.
The reinstatement
58
�of indoor track as an intercollegiate sports offerings gave our
outdoor track program a great shot in the arm.
Highlights of the
year included some outstanding performances by several teams and
individuals.
The rifle team once again led the way with a 28-17
overall record which improved the Rifles from 14th to 12th nationally
and edged the Dogs closer to the elite Top 10.
Anthony McCormick,
a rising senior, participated in the NCAA rifle tournament and
came away as the 21st best shooter in the U.S.
The Rifles also
finished the season as the second best contingent among ROTC schools.
Basketball, although picked to finish sixth in the nine-team Southern
Conference race, finished a respectable fifth place and was rated
by Basketball Weekly as the third most improved team in the country.
The Bulldogs, led by Randy Nesbit, captured impressive road victories
over Army, South Alabama, East Tennessee State, Appalachian State
and Western Carolina.
Nesbit's troops also gave Kansas all it
could handle on the road before falling 74-71 in front of 15,300
fans - the third largest crowd to ever witness a Citadel five.
Charlie Taaffe, an assistant at Army for the past six
seasons, became The Citadel's 19th head football coach December
19, 1986, replacing Tom Moore.
Taaffe, who helped to lead the
Black Knights to three straight winning seasons and two bowls as
offensive coordinator, signed 25 high school student-athletes to
national letters-of-intent with nine coming from the Palmetto State,
three of the nine from the Charleston area.
The wrestling team
once again had a winning season, marking a 7-6-1 overall mark.
Clay Ogden brought national attention to The Citadel by winning
two matches at the NCAA Championships, something no other Citadel
wrestler has ever done.
He finished the 1986-87 year ranked as
the
12th
best
wrestler
in
the
country
at
the
158-pound
classification.
After a year's absence and under the guidance
of the first-year head coach Jody Huddleston, the indoor track
program finished fourth in the Southern Conference Indoor Meet
for their best showing since 1980.
The tennis team completed its second most successful season
in school history with an 18-6 overall record and fourth-place
finish in the Southern Conference Tournament.
The death of Colonel
Don Bunch, who coached the Bulldogs 30 seasons, was tragic as he
was highly respected and held a position of esteem with his
colleagues which is difficult to achieve.
He was named the Tennis
Coach of the Year in the Southern Conference.
The Citadel has
lost a truly outstanding gentleman and alumnus.
The baseball team
finished the 1987 season with a 19-31 overall record, however,
senior right-hander Mike Mantei finished his career as the all-time
winning pitcher at an all-military school.
Head coach Chal Port
enters the 1988 season only two victories shy of the coveted
500-victory mark.
He has the most wins of a baseball coach at
an all-military school.
match
Head coach Gene Styles led the golf team to a 2-1 dual
record and his Bulldogs raised some eyebrows in tournament
59
�play.
The Dogs were led by senior Eddie Piedmont, who led the
Southern Conference in stroke average during the regular season.
He also finished in a tie for the first in the Furman Invitational,
defeating nine All-Americans in the process.
Head coach Bill
Barfield completed his ninth season atop the soccer program with
a squad saddled with youth and inexperience.
The soccer team lost
seven matches by the slim margin of one goal; however, prom~s~ng
players for the 1987 season, Rob Sorrentino and Troy Fahey, were
All-Southern Conference performers.
John Kerrison of the soccer
team brought great distinction to the soccer program and The Citadel
as he was named to CoS IDA's Academic All-American At-Large honor
squad, being tabbed a member of the first team.
Scott Thompson,
a defensive tackle for the Bulldogs, has been named a preseason
All-American by Sporting News, a national magazine which has Thompson
listed as Southern Conference's best player and one of the nation's
Top 10 performers.
2.
Personnel
First-year head coach Jody Huddleston finished his first
season with the Bulldogs, making impressive strides in cross country,
indoor track and outdoor track.
Charlie Taaffe, head football
coach, hired six bright and enthusiastic coaches to bring in a
new era of Bulldog football.
Al Seagraves was retained from the
former football staff and was named assistant head coach and running
backs coach. Bill Doha came from Purdue and has been named defensive
coordinator and linebacker coach.
Jack Daniels, a head coach at
Hobart College for six years, was named defensive coordinator and
administrative assistant.
Jeff Bleamer joins the football program
as receivers and special teams coach after coaching two seasons
with Taaffe at Army.
Richard Wilson, an assistant at Missouri
for three seasons, begins his first with the Bulldogs serving as
defensive backs coach. Mark Asanovich, The Citadel's first full-time
strength coach resigned this spring to take a job in Minnesota.
A search for his replacement as well as Bunch's has begun.
3.
Budget and Athletic Funding
The 1986-87 budget came under severe strain with the
replacement of the entire football staff.
Revenue projections
were not met in three major activities (football, basketball and
baseball) despite unprecedented promotion and marketing efforts
as all three teams suffered losing seasons although basketball
showed signs of real improvement.
Zero base budgeting for 1987-88
will be a real challenge for the operations budget, but conversely
the coaching change and special projects have enabled The Brigadier
Club to have its best year to date in its history.
The lack of
a home floor in basketball (McAlister Field House Renovation) puts
the basketball revenue projection in an uncertain status.

as seven defeats were by a single goal.
An
indication of the team's potential came in late
September when the Dogs posted consecutive shutouts
against
Armstrong

Ogden
became the first Bulldog wrestler ever to be ranked

The Bulldogs started only two seniors
in the everyday lineup and return six field starters
as well as some reserves who saw considerable
playing time.
The Bulldogs defeated North Carolina
for the third straight season and the team's youth
was indicated by the Dogs' 3-11 record in one-run
games and 1-4 ledger in extra-inning games.
The
Bulldogs' top two hitters were sophomores Donald

Personnel Services:
During Fiscal Year 1986-87, the Personnel Department continued
to provide full service to Citadel faculty and staff in all aspects
of personnel administration and management, although new programs
and functions were added without any increase to an inadequate
staff operating within an inadequate facility.
Following are
significant accomplishments during the year:
1.
Salary Increases.
a.
Classified employees received a 3% general base pay
increase effective 1 July 1986.
In addition, pay policies for
promotions, reclassifications, and grade reallocations were continued
at the 0-10% level. The Longevity Program was discontinued; however,
employees who received a longevity increase prior to 30 June 1986
continue to receive such for the uninterrupted duration of their
classified service.
The Merit Increment Program was suspended
for FY 1986-87, yet performance evaluations were continued in the
usual manner.
64
�b.
Unclassified faculty received compensation increases
based on an average 4% effective 1 October 1986.
Colleges and
universities were authorized to determine the total funds required
for these salary increases and to allot such total among individual
faculty members without uniformity.
Within this total, faculty
members received salary increases from 0-8%.
State Budget and
Control Board approval was required for increases in excess of
8%.
Eleven (11) faculty members received increases in excess of
8%, and Budget and Control Board approval was obtained.
Because
of The Citadel contract year starting on 1 September, the actual
payout, because of a one-month delay, was 22/24, or 3.67%. However,
base salaries effected 1 October reflected, on the average, an
increase of 4%.
The Citadel absorbed the increased payout costs,
estimated at $33,000 more than the 3% pool provided by the state.
The annual salary base was adjusted by the following amounts,
corresponding to the rating received for the 1985-86 Academic Year:
Satisfactory .•.•• $ 400.00
Meritorious .••••• $ 800.00
Superior •.••••.•• $1,200.00
Outstanding .•.••• $2,000.00
c.
Unclassified
staff employees under
the Executive
Compensation System received salary increases similar to faculty
except that no one was authorized an increase above the maximum
of applicable pay range, and no one was authorized an increase
that would place the individual's annual salary within 3'7o of the
President's salary.
Since the salary increase planned for the
dean would in fact have placed his salary within this 3% limitation,
the full increase planned for the dean could not be effected on
1 October 1986.
Budget and Control Board approval was obtained,
and the dean was granted an additional salary increase on 1 December
1986 at the time the President's salary was increased.
d.
Unclassified athletic coaches were granted general
cost of living increases averaging 4%.
However, increases were
distributed throughout the fiscal year, e.g., following the sport
season for the sport coached.
e.
The President, whose performance is evaluated by the
Executive Salary and Performance Evaluation Commission, received
a 3% base pay increase on 1 October 1986, delaying the performance
increase.
The Commission voted subsequently to implement the
performance and "to minimum" adjustments that were previously
delayed, and effective 1 December 1986, the President was granted
an additional 7% increase.
In addition, the 3% limitation placed
on salary increases was increased to 4%, meaning no one can be
authorized a salary that would place the individual's annual salary
within 4'7o of the President's salary.
Since the President's salary
was further increased on 1 December 1986, the dean was granted
an additional increase.
65
�2.
Insurance Programs.
a. Two open enrollment periods were held during FY 1986-87
for both the health and dental insurance programs, one during
September to October 1986 and one during May 1987.
During the
September/October 1986 Open Enrollment, faculty and staff members
had the choice of enrolling in either the State Grocp Plan (Plan A
or Plan B) or in one of the Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO's)
servicing the Charleston area, Companion Healthcare or Whitaker
Health Services, and to enroll dependents not previously enrolled
in a health plan.
In May 1987, a special open enrollment for health
insurance coverage was held. This special open enrollment permitted
members to change plans from the State Group Plan to an HMO or
vice versa, or to change within HMO' s.
Changes effected during
this open enrollment will remain in effect from 1 July 1987 until
31 December 1988.
Three HMO's now service the tri-county area;
Equicor
(formerly RCA),
Healthsource,
and Travelers
(formerly
Whitaker).
The carrier for the State Group Plan continued to be
Blue Cross/Blue Shield of South Carolina.
Monthly premiums for
health insurance coverage increased by 16%, which will remain in
effect through 31 December 1988.
b.
Dental
Effective 1 July 1987, General Adjustment
Business Services (GAB) will be the Third Party Administrator for
the dental program.
Coverage under GAB is the same as under R. E.
Harrington, except that benefit calculations will be · changed to
a calendar year instead of a fiscal year., hence the six-months
beginning 1 July will be an extension of the FY 1986-87.
c.
Group Life
The State will be the carrier for the
Group Life Insurance Program.
This program provides free life
insurance coverage for active members of $3,000 effective 1 July
1987.
d.
Long-Term Disability
Effective 1 July 1987, the
State is the carrier for long-term disability benefits versus Liberty
Life.
e.
Optional Life
Because of the recent law affecting
age employment, coverage under the Optional Life Insurance Program
was expanded to comply with the ADEA reductions and rates for active
members age 70 or over.
Year round enrollment allows increases
in optional life insurance coverage at the time of pay increases,
or on request with medical evidence.
United of Omaha continues
to be the carrier for the Optional Life and Accidental Death and
Dismemberment Program.
f.
Faculty and Senior Staff Group Life Insurance Program Effective 1 October 1986, coverage under this program was expanded
to provide $20,000 coverage of life insurance and principal sum
of accidental death and dismemberment plus $20,000 coverage for
long-term disability benefits.
This action was taken based on
66
�recommendations
submit ted
by
the
F acu 1 ty
and
Staff
Benefits
Committee. Coverage unde'r this program is in addition to the State
Group Life and Long~Term Disability Programs.
3.
Youth Work Experience Program.
The Citadel continues to participate in the' federal youth
work experience programs.
Due to a reduction ~n federal funds
this year, only eight student participants were employed and placed
throughout the campus in a variety of jobs.
4.
In-Service Training and Career Development.
Opportunities · were planned and offered to members of the
faculty and staff in in-service training and career development,
e.g., Employee Orientation Program, Employee .. Performance Management
System,
Pre-Retirement
Planning,
Clerical/Administrative
Staff
Workshop, Defensive Driving, Effective Secretary, Tax Seminar,
Telecommunications Update, and Written Communications. In addition,
The Citadel was
represented at the American Association for
Affirmative
Action
and
the
State
Human
Resource
Management
Conference.
5.
In-Service Death.
One in-service death occurred, that of Lieutenant Colonel
Paul J. Kingston,
Associate
Professor of Political Science on
22 April 1987.
In addition, Colonel Donald C. Bunch, Associate
Professor Emeritus of Business Administration and Coach of the
Tennis Team, died on 20 April 1987.
Colonel Bunch retired from
the active faculty on 30 June 1986.
6.
Personnel Reports.
Personnel reports continue to be a significant function
with reports submitted to the State Human Affairs Commission, the
Commission on Higher Education, and the U.S. Department of Education.
7.
Retirement Counseling.
Retirement Counseling was arranged and conducted for 23
members of the faculty and staff in November 1986.
In addition~
a two-day Pre-Retirement Seminar was held in January 1987 for members
of the faculty and staff who are contemplating retirement in five
to ten years.
A Retiree Update Seminar for retired members of
the faculty and staff was held in November 1986 with better than
50 participants at the seminar.

by The Citadel Board of Visitors and the State Human Affairs
Commission.
I t was signed by both the President and the Chairman
of the Board of Visitors and distributed to all concerned. Progress
was made in all areas of affirmative action except in job categories

support to all departments and activities.
As an ongoing process,
records of on-campus faculty and staff quarters assignments and
terminations are maintained along with the development and submission
of various reports related to on-campus quarters.

Telephone service continued to improve, but not to the
level of satisfaction desired.
Efforts continue to resolve concerns
with the Division of Information Resource Management (DIRM):
Costs
for service, equipment and long distance charges, maintenance,
over charges that have developed since the switch to System 85,
and problems encountered with student long distance telephone
service.
With the installation of a personal computer on 1 July
1987, a direct link between The Citadel and DIRM will be establishe d
so service and accountability should improve greatly.
3.
Prudent management decisions have made the copier service
a self-supporting activity, with sixteen (16) copiers strategically
located throughout the campus.
Three new copiers were purchased
and placed in departments with high volume usage.
By the end of
FY 1986-87, all copiers in inventory will be paid for.
With the
present cost of $.04 per copy, substantial funds will be accumulated
in order to replace or upgrade old copiers to insure maximum service
of these important pieces of equipment.

There were 27 changes in , faculty and staff quarters
assignments effected throughout FY 1986-87.
In addition, a fair
market estimate and a fair market rental estimate have been
accomplished for faculty and staff quarters.
This action is based
on directions from the State Budget and Control Board and the
requirement to comply with provisions of the 1986 Tax Law regarding
quarters rentals.
After review and approval by the President,
rental
rates
for
individual
quarters
will
be published and
incorporated in an updated memorandum on faculty and staff quarters.

as
conferences,
meetings,
seminars,
luncheons,
etc.

guest nights recorded in the }1ark Clark Hall guest room operation.
1.
Social and Recreational Activities.
A well-rounded program of social and recreational activities
was offered during FY 86-87.
With the College of Charleston close
by, cade ts were also able to participate in many of their scheduled
eve nts.
As is the case each year, a formal dance was held in
conjunction with each of the three major weekends at The Citadel.
In addition, seven informal dances were held at The Citadel Beach
Club.
Other popular activities included nine harbor cruises; a
social exchange with Converse, Queens and Agnes Scott colleges;
a Super Bowl party and a ski trip over Christmas break. Four student
receptions were held and four receptions for parents, alumni and
guests.
Veteran and day student functions are also supported by
the department.
Two beach club parties, two cruises and five noon
luncheons for information dissemination were held.
Other events
for the students included a Valentine dinner, billiard tournament
and an ice cream social for freshmen.
The weekend movie program
provided low cost opportunities to view currently released films.
This year the "Knows for 0-A-0' s" (One and Only) booklet
was updated and reprinted. This booklet provides a wealth of useful
72
�information about The Citadel, Charleston and customs at formal
dances for girlfriends who plan to attend a Citadel Hop for the
first time. Tours of Charleston were offered to interested freshmen
to help them learn their way around Charleston and learn more about
the area.
Etiquette training was expanded from being a segment
of the Student Activities orientation, to becoming a full four
hour course.
This course was designed to increase knowledge and
awareness of the social graces.
The annual student talent show
was a big success and netted a profit of $614.
Fold-out student
program calendars were printed for the first time to advertise
student activities events.
2.
Post Office.
The post office metered $99,300 of official mail during
FY 1986-87.
In addition, $25,436 of third class bulk mail was
processed.
This represents a 40% increase over FY 1985-86 in the
first class mailing costs and 78% in the third class bulk mail.
The annual unannounced audit of the post office resulted in another
"no discrepancies" report and an outstanding rating.
3.
The Citadel Beach Club.
The Citadel Beach Club remains a popular location not
only for Citadel users, but for groups from the surrounding area
as well.
A total of 64 outside groups rented beach club facilities
during periods when Citadel groups would not be using them.
These
rentals generated $9,287 in revenue for the college.
There were
39 Citadel group functions during the same period with an attendance
of 4,695.
During FY 86-87 there were 13,575 individual users of
the beach club.
4.
Publications.
a.
The Brigadier
The official college newspaper of The Citadel completed
its seventh year as a self-supporting publication.
Revenues from
ads, subscription sales, and interest from the Jeremiah Milbank
Fund amounted to $34,400.
Twenty issues of The Brigadier were
once again published during the college year.
For the first time,
a significant surplus of almost $10,000 will be carried over into
the new fiscal year.
b.
The Sphinx
The Sphinx staff was beset with a rash of problems
that led to missed deadlines and substandard work.
The yearbook
was delivered late on June 23, 1987 at a cost of $41,595. Yearbooks
were mailed to graduating seniors and will be delivered to other
cadets in the fall.
Yearbook ad sales returned $10,995 in revenue
to the college, while another $13,000 came to the college in the
form of a photograph packet sale rebate.
73
�c.
The Shako
Two issues of The Shako , the student literary magazine,
were published.
Each issue was planned for distribution at the
end of a semester.
d.
The Guidon
The Guidon is a student handbook which serves primarily
to inform freshmen on a wealth of information about The Citadel,
present and past.
It is updated and revised each year by a cadet
staff and distributed to all incoming freshmen.
5.
Chorale and Original 13.
The Citadel
Chorale
is
an
all-male vocal group of
approximately 25 voices.
In the fall of each year they are selected
through audition.
A smaller singing group from within the chorale
is the "Original 13".
During SY 1986-87 the chorale had nine
performances and the "Original 13" was called upon 14 times.
This
did not include the chorale spring tour performances in Atlanta,
Georgia area during the March 6-11 period.
This tour resulted
in many letters of praise for the chorale being received by The
Citadel.
6.
Fine Arts.
The Citadel Development Foundation again joined the college
in helping to provide an outstanding array of talent for the 1986-87
Fine Arts Series.
This year's program consisted of "Musical
America", "Edgar Allan Poe", "Romeo and Juliet", the duo-pianist
team of "Delphin and Romain", and a steel drum band from Trinidad.
All events were well attended.
8.
Debate Team.
Fifteen cadets formed the debate team this year which
competed in intercollegiate and intramural debate competition.
The team participated in eight intercollegiate tournaments and
one workshop held at UNC-Charlotte.
While they did not win any
of these large tournaments, they did have a winning record in terms
of head to head competition.
9.
Substance Abuse Program.
The numerous educational and preventive measures called
for in "The Citadel's Drug and Alcohol Program were all conducted
as scheduled with encouraging results.
New initiatives during
SY 1986-87
were:
(1) Peer-confrontation
training
for
cadet
leadership,
(2) sophomore
refresher
training,
and
(3) alcohol
awareness classes taught by the college surgeon for cadets diagnosed
as having a drinking problem.
There were 42 referrals of problem
drinkers to the Counselor to the Corps compared to 55 for the same
74
�period the year prior.
These figures, along with favorable cadet
feedback, would tend to indicate that headway is being made toward
more responsible drinking practices.
9.
Family Life Program.
This program was established by the college president
in July 1982 to enhance family life by providing wholesome
recreational opportunities for Citadel faculty, staff and their
families.
The Family Life Committee meets quarterly under the
chairmanship of the director of student activities. Nine activities
plus an offering of children's summer activities were planned and
conducted during FY 1986-87.
10.
Other activities
a.
The Orphanage Fund Committee raised sufficient funds
in December to purchase a badly needed dryer for the Jenkins
Orphanage and contribute $200 to the "Toys for Tots" campaign.
b.
A student shuttle service was begun to aid cadets
without transportation in getting around town on weekends.
The
service proved to be very popular as 5,416 passengers took advantage
of the service.
The shuttle service also provided transportation
to and from the airport at the Christmas and spring breaks.

Security
1.
General.
The Citadel Department of Public Safety increased its
focus on Crime Prevention during the past school year.
The success
of our identification of property through the means of engraving
was particularly evident in our bicycle identification program.
75
�For the first time in the past sixteen years, we had only one cadet's
bicycle stolen this year.
It was not secured or registered.
The
commitment of our Cadet Provost Marshals and their support in this
program was crucial.
The
Department
of
Public
Safety
hosted
several
law
enforcement programs on campus for surrounding police departments.
These included presentations by The Federal Bureau of Investigation
to local law enforcement.
Corporal Cathy Bowers was designated as the department's
crime prevention officer. Corporal Bowers organized a second Citadel
Safety Fair which attracted over 100 members of the campus community.
The safety fair was deemed a huge success by all concerned, with
presentations by the Charleston Fire Department, Greenville City
Police Department, the director of the physical plant, a live puppet
show, and a police robot from the Greenville City Police Department.
In addition, the Campus Family Life Activities presented the parents
and children with an overview of safe campus activities for campus
children during the summer.
2.
Law Enforcement Activities.
Thefts on campus increased during the past school year
with the majority of these thefts occurring in the barracks.
The
total number of barracks thefts increased from 28 to 40.
Again,
thefts of cash was the most significant area of increase. Thirty-two
cases of cash-only thefts as compared to 24 the previous year were
reported.
Again, this indicates that the successful engraving
and identification program has forced thieves to concentrate on
currency.
The majority of thefts still involve unsecured valuables
and cash.
Of the $1,199 total values of items and cash stolen
in the barracks, only $234 were secured.
The rema1n1ng $965 in
cash and valuables were not secured at the time that they were
taken.
The number of thefts and the amount taken at The Citadel
remain almost insignificant when compared to losses of students
in other institutions of similar size.
The department conducted over 12,000 building inspections
as a part of its crime prevention program during the year.
3.
Traffic.
Six hundred three parking citations were issued during
the year.
This is a decrease of 44 from the previous year.
There
were 11 vehicle accidents on campus this past year which is a
continued downward trend from the previous year ( 13).
There were
no injuries
resulting
from
the vehicle accidents on campus.
Thirty-four moving citations were issued and all citations were
upheld by the magistrates.
Parking at the stadium and on campus during athletic events
was conducted with no major incidents and was observed as the best
76
�seen thus far.
Parking at major on-campus events, Parents Day,
Homecoming, Corps Day and Graduation, was also handled without
major incident.
4.
Campus Support.
The
Department
of
Public
Safety
issued
over
1600
identification cards during the past year.
Public Safety officers
additionally assisted over 1200 motorists with dead batteries and
over 350 drivers who had locked themselves out of their vehicles.
A total of 112 lost and found items were turned in to the department,
with the department identifying 44 of the owners.

Hall each Sunday.
Special services recognized the anniversaries
of each branch of the military, the golden anniversary of Sunnnerall
Chapel, Citadel sports, the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.,

Sunday evening masses were said in Sunnnerall Chapel.
During first
semester, Episcopal Holy Eucharist was held Sunday and Thursday
evenings.
The relocation of St. Alban's Chapel to Sunnnerall Chapel

Episcopal connnunity opted for Monday services, vice Sundays.
There
was no change in the schedule for their Thursday worship.

the beginning of the school year which got the group off to a good
start.
In addition to the regularly scheduled meetings on the
second Tuesday of each month, the campus ministers and spouses
socialized with a Christmas dinner at a local restaurant and a
boat trip to Bull's Island in the spring.
In April, the Charleston

alumni.
Several cadets in religious leadership roles were replaced
during the school year, the most notable being the Regimental
Religious Officer in mid-second semester.
Renovation of the stained glass windows in Summerall Chapel
was completed in August and the state-of-the-art sound system

The production of the Print Shop has again increased
considerably this past year due to the addition of new equipment.
Production was increased by 50 percent over last year with the
addition of the interface for the typesetter.
A new automatic

of several part-time employees are now done in a matter of hours,
thereby reducing costs tremendously and allowing time for more
printing work to be accomplished.

Summer Camp for Boys
The Citadel Summer Camp for Boys began its 31st year of
leadership
of
Colonel John P. Smyth
operation
under
the
able
(Director) and Captain Samuel G. Evans, III (Deputy Director).
Camp enrollment for 1987 was 328 campers. The camper recruiting
program brought in 38 new campers. During the off-season, the camp
purchased twelve new Anschutz marksmanship match rifles replacing
15+ year old equipment.
In addition, three new Remington 20-gauge
shotguns were purchased for use in the Hunter Safety and Trapshooting
program.
Dredging of the Boating Center channel increased the
participation
time
of
all
waterfront
activities.
Softball
instruction replaced A~chery in the daily schedule.
The camp's
Citadel Scholarship program awarded five $500 scholarships to campers
and counse1ors in 1986. Recipients were:
First Honor Graduates
(Campers)
- 1st Session - Robbie Dixon
- 2nd Session - Brian Martin
Outstanding Counselors - 1st Session - Ron Diegel
(Cadets)
- 2nd Session - Rob Pope
Outstanding Junior Counselor - Chip Rogers
Summer Camp for Boys employed 48 cadets, alumni, and junior
counselors for the summer. The camp continues to support the college
by utilizing facilities that would otherwise be dormant over the
summer months.

Canteen Activities
The Canteen Activities has had continued success providing
services
to
the Cadet Corps and The Citadel Family.
Store
renovations continue with the completion of the office remodeling
and customer service counter.
The point of sale cash registers
and new computer system for inventory control were placed in
ope ration during the year.
The revenue-sharing program with the Corps and the barracks
vending machines was continued.
The three areas of service that
were not self-supporting were the bowling alley, the coin laundromat
and the Faculty House. These areas are being looked at very closely
to determine the best recommendation for improvements.
The Canteen Advisory Committee was replaced this school year,
and an Auxiliary Advisory Committee was appointed to benefit all
auxiliary services.
A greater interest was shown by the cadets
on this committee to help both the Corps and the auxiliary services.

A.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
General
Fiscal year 1986-87 saw higher education in South Carolina
hurt even more by the shortfalls in state revenues.
The
Legislature funded higher education at 95.98 per cent in the
Appropriations Act (a reduction of 3% from fiscal year 1985-86),
but the Budget and
Control Board was forced to impose budget
reductions of 2.6 per cent in November 1986 and 0.8 per cent
in February 1987. These "cuts" amounted to $320,000 and $96,000
respectively for The Citadel.
The college absorbed each "cut"
with no direct impact on academic programs, but had to defer
essential facilities maintenance and rehabilitation projects,
eliminate most equipment replacement funding, curtail travel
and
supplies expenditures,
reduce utilization of temporary
help by over 25 per cent, and institute a controlled freeze
on all personnel vacancies in order to absorb the cuts.
Higher
education in South Carolina is faced with very serious questions
of program priorities if the funding problems continue.
The
following
table
highlights
the
downward
trend
in
state
appropriations for higher education:

Funding of CHE Formula

1987-88
88.6%
?
It should be noted that higher education's "share" of the state
appropriations
continues
to
decrease.
In
1979-80
higher
education received 15.2 per cent.
In 1986-87 it received only
13.8 per cent.
The State Auditor's Report on The Citadel's financial records
for fiscal year 1983-84 and 1984-85 was received by the college
in March 1987. During previous audits of The Citadel's financial
records, the opinions were qualified because of the auditors'
inability to reconstruct acquisition costs of certain real
properties owned by the college.
This shortcoming was resolved
during the latest audit through the assistance of the property
appraisal staff of the Budget and Control Board.
However,
the latest audit report is qualified because of the lack of
disclosure of the financial records of The Citadel Development
Foundation and the Association of Citadel Men.
It is The
Citadel's position that both organizations are unrelated parties.
85
�Because of an extremely heavy workload, the State Auditor
was not able to perform an audit of The Citadel's financial
records
for
fiscal
year
1985-86.
The State Auditor has
contracted with the Columbia, South Carolina firm of Rogers,
Montgomery, Devaney and Company, PA, to perform a two-year
audit covering both fiscal years 1985-86 and 1986-87.
The Budget and Control Board's Procurement Audit staff
conducted an extensive audit of The Citadel's procurement system
to determine how well we implemented our $10,000 local procurement authority and our compliance with state procurement regulations.
The college received a draft report of findings, and
was advised during the exit interview that our $10,000 local
procurement authority should be continued.
Fiscal year 1986-87 marked our first full year with local
authority to procure goods and services up to $10,000.
During
the year we processed 53 invitations for bid (IFB), one request
for proposal
(RFP), and one construction bid.
All were
processed and awarded without protest.
Also, the very popular
and successful Departmental Order (DO) System was expanded
to permit purchases of up to $150.00.
This system expedites
the purchasing process for department/activity heads and removes
a large volume of low cost procurement actions from the
procurement office staff's workload.
The college continues
to make good use of its status as a Service Educational Activity
(SEA) to obtain free surplus materials from the Department
of Defense (DOD).
Over $47,200 worth of supplies and equipment
was acquired from the DOD during the fiscal year.
One of the most significant procurement actions for The
Citadel in the past five or six years was successfully completed
this year with the award of contracts to Digital Equipment
Corporation (DEC) and Information Associates (IA) for hardware
and software to establish an on-campus administrative computer
support system.
This highly technical million dollar plus
acquisition was accomplished in a timely manner and was awarded
without protest.
The entire Citadel team of staff and faculty
members which participated in this acquisition is to be complimented for their professionalism and dedication.
Details as
to the system purchased and its application are contained within
the academic affairs portion of this annual report.
Fiscal year 1986-87 was another year of marked improvement
in our efforts to meet the Minority Business Enterprise procurement objective of the college.
The Board of Visitors approved
an objective of five
per cent
(5%) of our controllable
procurement expenditures for goods and services which amounted
to $121,045.
Actual purchases for the fiscal year exceeded
$53,600.
That compares most favorably to our performance of
$14,056 in 1984-85 and $32,615 in 1985-86.
We anticipate an
even better performance in fiscal year 1987-88.
Following selection of the new computer system, the financial
86
�staff began a very detailed training program to implement the
new system as of 1 July 1987--the start of our new fiscal year.
The financial accounting portion of the new system is the first
portion scheduled for implementation.
To fully prepare our
staff for the new system training, the accounting manager,
Mrs. Higgs, first presented a basic college fund accounting
course to the staff using a course dev.eloped by the National
Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO).
The next portion of the system to be implemented, as of 1 January
1988, is the payroll and personnel management portion.
The college revised its system of quarterly reviews during
1986-87 to streamline the system, reduce workload on department
heads, reduce paper work, and provide more pertinent data to
the president for application to the decision making process.
Under the revised system, data for the . first and third quarter
reviews is provided from management reports generated by the
accounting system.
This permits a comprehensive review of
actual revenues and expenditures compared to the approved budget
with corrective actions recommended to the president where
required.
The mid-year review is a much more detailed review
with input from every department/ activity in the college, and
a formal two-hour presentation for the president.
The revised
system was well received by all concerned and facilitated the
decision process required to implement the two appropriations
reductions mentioned earlier in this report.
The athletic department made significant progress in the
internal management of its own budget.
Had the department
not been faced with two significant cost factors it would
probably have been able to end the year with a slight profit.
However, the costs associated with the changes in the football
coaching staff and the lowered level of "cost recovery" generated
by teaching physical education courses resulted in a net
operating shortfall of approximately $80,000.
The department
did fully implement its program to control expenditures from
cadet QM accounts in compliance with NCAA Regulations, and,
as a result, was able to recover over $30,000 which, in prior
years, would have been expended.
A number of significant personnel actions took place within
the finance area during the fiscal year.
In chronological
order they were:
LTC Knight completed the last of three annual one-week
sessions at the College Business Management Institute at the
University of Kentucky.
Mrs. Nancy Mcinerney

B.
Financial Review of Operations for Fiscal Year 1985-86
Under the fund method of accounting for colleges and universities, each fund group includes revenues, expenditures, and
fund balances and is established to record specific activities
or to attain particular objectives.
Some of these funds are
available for general operations while others are restricted
by special limitations or specific, designated applications.
It should be noted that financial statements for colleges and
universities differ from those of commercial entities which
typically present an overall, consolidated financial position.
By contrast college and university financial statements are
presented in terms of separate fund groups and do not include
a grand total of all operations.
The following statistical highlights, information, statements
and schedules are intended to provide a better understanding
of (1) the accounting policies and procedures used by The
Citadel, (2) the composition of various funds which comprise
the college's financial structure, and (3) the changes that
have occurred in each of the major fund groups during the past
fiscal year.
Current
Unrestricted
Funds
represent
the
unrestricted
operating accounts of the college including not only those
relating to its educational and general activities but also
those used to record the transactions of the · college's owned
88
�and operated auxiliary enterprises (e.g., dining hall, infirmary,
laundry and dry cleaning, tailor shop, cadet store, print shop;
barracks, faculty and staff quarters, the independent operations
of the cadet canteen and. the athletic department).
The assets
of the Current Unrestricted Fund generally include cash, special
deposits,
receivables,
inventories,
and
prepaid
expenses.
Its liabilities generally consist of various payables, accrued
liabilities, student deposits and other - liabilities such as
unclaimed wages.
Current
Restricted
Funds
represent
gifts,
grants,
and
contract funds received by the college, subject to restrictions
of the grantors as to their expenditures in support of research,
training programs,
libraries,
instruction, student services,
scholarships/fellowships, and other sundry purposes.
Loan Funds principally represent funds which are limited
by the terms of their donors to the purpose of making loans
to students who might otherwise be unable to attend The Citadel.
Often these funds are restricted to a specific type of loan.
These funds covered here include The Citadel Development Foundation Loan
Fund, National Direct Student Loan Fund, and the
Stackhouse Trust Loan Fund.
The Basic Educational Opportunity
and Secondary Educational Opportunity Grants are covered under
the Current Restricted Fund.
During the past fiscal year,
loans of $106,475 were made from the Stackhouse, CDF and the
NDSL Loan funds to 89 students.
At 30 June 1987, outstanding
student loans receivables aggregated $661,586.
Our NDSL default
rate of 4.59 per cent is below the national average.
Endowment and Similar Funds
represent gifts,
bequests,
or other funds received which fall into one of two categories:
(1) Permanent Endowment Funds for which the original donor
has stipulated, as a condition of the gift, that the principal
is to be maintained inviolate and in perpetuity and only the
income resulting from the investment of the fund may be expended;
(2) Quasi-endowment funds which are not restricted by donor
limitations but which the Board of Visitors has determined
are to be retained and invested until such time as they may
authorize the expenditure of the principal of such funds.
In both cases, the income earned on the investment of Endowment
and Similar Funds is used in accordance with the required terms
of the donor's original gift for specific purposes, such as
student aid, scholarships and awards.
Any increase or decrease
in value is recognized upon disposition and no adjustment is
made to carrying value prior to this time.
Plant Funds are now divided into four groups:
Retirement
of Indebtedness, Investment in Plant, Unexpended, and Renewals
and Replacements,
Retirement of Indebtedness funds are derived
from the registration and tuition fees collected from the student
for the specific purpose of debt service.
Investment in plant
represents the aggregate of all land, buildings and capital
equipment belonging to the college.
Also included is the
89
�construction in progress of any building projects.
Unexpended
Funds represent the unspent portion of funds approved for Capital
Improvement
projects.
Renewals
and Replacement Funds are
reserves set aside to provide for renewal and replacement of
capital equipment and facilities.
The retirement of indebtedness plant funds at year end
recorded receipts of $623,135 in fees and other revenue and
$45,706 in interest income for a total receipt of $668,841.
The expenses recorded for bond retirement including interest,
transfers and service charges totaled $337,751.
The fund also
contributed
$338,020
toward
capital
construction
projects.
The fund balance at year end is $1,361,557 for a net decrease
of $3,595 over
fiscal
year 1985-86.
The current bonded
indebtedness of the college including plant improvement is
displayed in the appropriate schedule.
Investment in plant fund represents the aggregate total
of buildings, land and moveable and fixed equipment, and library
books owned by the college. These assets are carried at original
cost plus subsequent additions, or at fair market value at
date of gift, if donated.
In accordance with practices followed
by educational institutions, no provision is made for appreciation or depreciation of physical plant assets.
Major additions
to plant assets, including purchases of moveable and fixed
equipment with a unit value in excess of $200.00 having an
expected
life
in
excess
of
one
year,
are
capitalized.
Expenditures from current funds for acquisition of moveable
and fixed equipment are recorded in both the current funds
expenditure accounts of the various departments and in the
appropriate plant investment account.
The book value at 30
June 1987 is $42,380,318.
Unexpended Plant Funds balance as of 30 June 1987 amounted
to $12,718,763.
Renewals and Replacement Fund balances as of 30 June 1987
totaled $1,640,749.
These funds are distributed among eight
accounts:
barracks, barracks telephones, dining hall, faculty
quarters,
infirmary,
laundry,
computer
acquisition
and
rehabilitation reserve.

Note 1 - Smrnary of Significant Accm.mting Policies
A.
Accrual Basis Accormting
The financial statements of The Citadel have been prepared on
the accrual basis except that, in accordance with accounting
practices customarily followed by educational institutions, no
provision is made for depreciation of physical plant assets. The
Statement of Current Fund Revenues, Expenditures, and Other Changes
is a statement of financial activities of current funds related to
the current reporting periods. It does not purport to present the
results of operations or the net income or loss for the period as
would a statement of income or a statement of revenues and
expenses.
To the extent that current funds are used to finance plant
assets,
the
amounts so provided are accormted for as (1)
expenditures, in the case of alterations and renovations and
purchases of movable equipment and library books; and (2) transfers
including
the required provisions for debt amortization and
interest.
B.
Fund AccO\ID.t ing
To ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on
the use of the resources available to the college,the accounts are
maintained in accordance with the principles of "ftmd accormting."
This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes
are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds
that are in accordance with activities or objectives specified.
Separate accounts are maintained for each fund; however, in the
accompanying
financial
statements,
ftmds that have similar
characteristics have been combined into fund groups.
Accordingly,
all financial transactions have been recorded and reported by ftmd
group.
Within each fund group, fund balances restricted by outside
sources are so indicated and are distinguished from unrestricted
funds allocated to specific purposes by action of the governing
board.
Externally restricted funds Tlliy be used only in accordance.
with the purposes established by the source of such funds and are
in contrast with unrestricted ftmds over which the governing board
retains full control to use in achieving any of its institutional
purposes.
99
�c.
Description of Funds
The Current Ftmd group inl'lwiPR those economic resources that
are expendable for operating purposes to perfonn the primary
mission of the institution. For a more meaningful disclosure, the
current funds are divided into three subgroups: unrestricted,
restricted and auxiliary enterprises.
Auxiliary enterprises are
described separately in the next paragraph. Current funds are
considered unrestricted unless the restrictions imposed by the
donor
or
other external agency are so specific that they
substantially reduce the college's flexibility in their use.
Unrestricted gifts are recognized as revenues when received.
Receipts that are restricted are recorded initially as additions to
restricted fund balances then recognized as revenues to the extent
that such funds were expended for the restricted purposes during
the current fiscal year.
Auxiliary Enterprises are self-supporting business entities
and activities that exist for the purpose of furnishing goods
and/or services primarily to students,
faculty,
staff,
or
departments, and for which charges are made that directly relate to
such goods and/or services.
Receipts and disbursements are
reported separately as unrestricted current funds in the current
fund group.
Assets, liabilities and fund balances are combined
with other unrestricted current funds for reporting purposes.
The Loan Fund group accounts for the resources available for
loans to students.
Loan funds are provided by the federal
government
and
other
sources,
including
private
gifts.
Expenditures include costs of loan collections, loan cancellations,
and administrative expenses under federal loan programs.
The Endowment Fund group includes pennanent endowment and
funds functioning as endownent (quasi -endownent).
Pennanent
endowment funds are subject to the restrictions of gift instrunents
requiring in perpetuity that the principal be invested and the
income only be used.
While quasi-endowment funds have been
established by the governing board for the same purposes as
pennanent endowment funds, any unrestricted portion of quasiendCMDent funds may be expended.
The tenn "principal" is construed to include the original
value of an endowment,
subsequent
additions
and
realized
gains/losses attributable to investment transactions.
The
Plant
subgroups:
Fund
group
consists
of
four
self-balancing
(1) Unexpended Plant Funds, (2) Renewal and Replacement Funds,
(3) Retirement of Indebtedness Funds and (4) Investment in Plant.
The Unexpended Plant Fund subgroup accounts for the resources
derived from various sources to finance the acquisition of longlife assets. The Renewal and Replacement Fund subgroup provides
for renewal and replacement of existing plant assets. Resources
10 0
�that are specifically accumulated for interest and principal
payments, debt service reserve funds, and other debt service
charges rel~tr~ +~ Plant Fund indebtedness are accounted for in
the Reti'rement of Indebtedness Fund subgroup. The Investment in
Plant subgroup accounts for all long-life assets in the service of
the College and all construction in progress. Net Investment in
Plant is the mnount of the carrying value of assets
over
liabilities.
The Agency Fund group accounts for the assets held on behalf
of others in the capacity of custodian
or
fiscal
agent;
consequently, transactions relating to agency funds do not affect
the operating statements of The Citadel. They include accounts of
students,
student
organizations,
and other groups directly
associated with the College.
D.
Caq>ensa ted Absences
The College leave policy allows for certain employees to carry
forward a maximum of 45 annual vacation leave days. The liability
was $702,412 at 30 June 1987 and $651,908 at 30 June 1986.
E.
Investment in Plant
Investment in plant is reflected primarily at cost. Estimated
cost values have been used where original cost records were not
available. Additions to investment in plant are reflected at cost.
Retirements and dispositions are removed at cost or estimated cost
values.
Replacements
and
repairs
are
not capitalized.
Improvements are recorded as additions to investment in plant.
In 1986 the value of buildings was adjusted to the appraised
historical cost as detennined by the Property Appraisal Office of
the Research and Statistical Service Division of the Budget and
Control
Board.
This adjustment resulted in a decrease of
$8,041,230 in the value of the buildings and was done due to the
lack of complete cost records of building acquisitions prior to
1976.
F.
Inventories
Inventories are recorded at cost which is not in excess of net
realizable value.
G.
Special Deposits
Special Deposits mainly represent fees by students
for
succeeding semesters and various security deposits.
Fees are
included in revenue in the semester applicable to the deposits.
10 1
�H.
Cash, Due To, Due Fran
The college maintains two checking accounts with banking
institutions in which minimum cash balances are maintained. The
remaining funds of the college are on deposit with the
State
Treasurer.
The balancing of cash in the bank accounts with the
State Treasurer may result in deficits in the cash balances of same
funds. \Vhen these deficits occur, they are recorded as aue to/due
fran in the appropriate funds.
I.
Other Significant Accmmting Policies
Other significant accounting policies
other notes to the financial statements.
are set forth in the
NOte 2 - State Appropriations
A.
General
~erations
The College is a State supported college that receives annual
appropriations for operations fran the State of South Carolina.
The laws of the State and the policies and procedures specified by
the State for state agencies and institutions are applicable to the
activities of the College.
B. Capital Iq>rovements
In the fiscal year ended 30 June 1987, and in prior years, the
State authorized funds for improvement and expansion of the College
facilities using the proceeds of State Capital Improvement Bonds to
be issued by the State.
·The balances receivable for these
authorizations are included in the balance sheet
as
State
Appropriation for Capital Improvements (1987 - $12,318,810, 1986 $12,320,164). The authorized funds can be request~d as needed once
State authorities have given approval to begin specific projects.
<Ale of the criteria used for giving approval to begin specific
projects is the amount of Capital Improvement Bonds outstanding,
which is governed by the laws of the State.

Commandant of Cadets.
B.
State of Training and Discipline of the Corps of Cadets
School Year 1986-87 was a difficult year for the Corps of
Cadets. The Corps was shaken by the incident of 23 October and
the resultant period of extended adverse publicity. However, an
organization that shares and overcomes adversity, normally grows
stronger. Working under the close scrutiny of the media and other
critics resulted in less than a comfortable working environment
for the Corps and its leadership.
However, they endured and
matured, and by the end of the school year, Corps operations were
back to normal.
In the final analysis, the difficulties
associated with the unfortunate experience of the fall appears to
have he lped bind the Corps closer together.
Cadet Regulations, i.e., The Blue book, continued to be
accepted by the Corps of Cadets.
Minor chang es were made in
School Year 1986-87 to strengthen attendance at parades and
provide definitive guidance to fourthclass cadets as to where they
were allowed to park and drive automobiles in relation to the
campus. Stronger punishments for "Bed Stuffing" and for female
visitors in the barracks were imposed. The offense and punishment
for "Quibbling" will be removed from The Blue Book due to its
being an offense in the Honor Manual. The removal of "Quibbling"
from The Blue Book is the result of a continuing effort to
separate honor and conduct offenses.
Cadre training in School Year 1986-87 continued emphasis on
"Training the Trainer," with primary emphasis at the platoon and
squad level. This training resulted in continued improvement in
the confidence and performance of cadet leaders at these levels.
108
�1
The new Regimental and Battalion Staff training sessions resulted
in much improved staff coo r dination and job performance. This
program will be continued in School Year 1987-88. The coming year
will emphasize continued training at the platoon and squad level
on manual of arms, posture, training as to respect for race and
religious differences, and emphasis on attention to detail.
Refresher training will be initiated for the remainder of the
Corps of Cadets on posture and manual of arms. Overall, the 198687 cadre did an excellent job.
J
A highlight of School Year 1986-87 was the overall appearance
and performance by all units of the Corps at parades and reviews.
The reward system initiated in School Year 1984-85 has resulted in
all companies competing to be in the top four positions in parade
performance in order to be excused from a drill period the
following week.
This program will continue.
The Salute Gun
Battery's performance was outstanding this past year.
Only one
misfire was experienced, and this proved to be the result of a
faulty round.

The alcohol program initiated in School Year 1983-84
continues.
This program requires all cadets involved in
disciplinary actions that were alcohol related to report to
Captain Sauers, Department of Psychology, for screening, testing,
and counselling. Additionally, certain cadets were required to
report to The Citadel Surgeon as a result of Captain Sauers'
screening/testing, to determine if they should attend a mandatory
four hour alcohol awareness class or if additional treatment was
appropriate. A total of forty-five cadets were alcohol referrals
in School Year 1986-87 as compared to fifty-five cadets in School
Year 1985-86. Captain Sauers referred sixteen of the forty-five
to The Citadel Surgeon for further evaluation. All sixteen cadets
were required to attend the mandatory alcohol awareness class.
Two cadets volunteered for the class and attended on their own
initiative.
Alcohol related offenses continue to be a major
problem within the Corps. Increased corrective actions will be
initiated in this area.
The three ROTC departments conducted sensitivity training for
all cadets in the Corps. The purpose ·of this instruction was to
increase cadets' awareness and sensitivity as regards different
races, creeds, and religious backgrounds. This instruction was
meaningful, timely, and well received by all members of the Corps
of Cadets. This instruction will continue in School Year 1987-88.
School Year 1986-87 saw 116 fourth classmen withdraw (17.8%
of 652) as opposed to 88 (13.4% of 657) for School Year 1985-86
*One cadet later suspended as . a result of receiving a class II
punishment.
**Both cadets expelled for drug related offenses.
***Two cadets resigned in lieu of Board for drug related offense
llO
�and 63 (12.0% of 527) for School Year 1984-85.
During the past
ten years, the attrition rate has fluctuated from 7.6% to 20.0%
with an average of 15.8%.
High attrition in 1987 may be
attributed to a weakness in the senior Chain of Command's ability
to assert strong influence on the Corps during an extended period
of stress associated with the incident in October, plus an
inability of fourth classmen to cope with the academic and
military programs.
C.

activation ceremony forming the Palmetto Battalion.
The Palmetto
Battalion receives its heritage from the first regiment formed by
Citadel cadets in 1846 to fight in the Mexican War.
The cadet
battalion is run entirely by cadets and coordinates and plans all
Army activities for the Army cadets. The Battalion was involved
in four major training exercises during the year and the Ranger
Company was involved in six Field Training Exercises.
Static
displays of Army equipment and weaponry were provided for the
cadets by the South Carolina Army National Guard, the 120th Army
Reserve Command and the 24th Infantry Division from Fort Stewart,
Georgia. On two occasions, cadets received helicopter orientation
flights from the SCARNG and 24th Division Aviation Battalion.

Houston, Texas.
The Ranger Company is still the most active Army
extracurricular activity.
The company participated in several
113
�projects and to talk with military and civilian engineers on
opportunities in engineering. After a very successful year last
summer in special training, the battalion will send cadets to
Airborne School, Air Assault School, Northern Warfare School,
Russian Language Institute, Cadet Troop Leadership Training and
Ranger School. A 100% graduation/completion rate was experienced
last summer. Similar success is anticipated this year.
The Battalion will continue to strive to recruit more
individuals into the Army program, train and retain quality cadets
and commission them as lieutenants upon graduation. The Army
strives for excellence in leadership, and wants the whole man who
has demonstrated the academic and physical requirements required
to become a quality officer. The Army Detachment will continue to
provide the cadets the training, equipment and material necessary
to educate them on the opportunities of the total Army force; the
Active Army, the Army National Guard and the Army Reserves.
E.
Department of Aerospace Studies
The keystone of training given in Aerospace Studies continues
to be our commitment to providing positive leadership, quality
instruction, and the experiences necessary to develop quality
officers for the United States Air Force.

Six
officers will act as company tactical officers in the coming year.
Captain Lynwood Metts, Citadel Class of 1979, reported for duty as
Major Jackson's replacement.
2.
Operations
The Department of Aerospace Studies has developed
several innovative academic programs during the SY 1986-87. A new
instructor training program was developed to prepare new
instructors for their first teaching experience, and to provide a
review of administrative procedures, regulatory requirements, and
new instructor improvement techniques.
All lesson plans,
examinations, and related course material have been placed on
computer disks for easy update. During the 1986-87 School Year,
717 students enrolled in the AFROTC program. Of these, sixty-six
114
�examinations, and related course material have been placed on
computer disks for easy update. During the 1986-87 School Year,
717 students enrolled in the AFROTC program. Of these, sixty-six
were Air Force scholarship/contract students.
For FY 1986,
thirty-three cadets were commissioned into the United States Air
Force. Estimated officer production for FY 1987 is thirty-four.
Special students, those not currently on contract, continue to be
attracted to the AFROTC curricuum of management, leadership, and
foreign affairs. Current trends indicate over seventy cadets from
the Class of 1990 are seeking a commission.
3.
Extracurricular Activities
The Department of Aerospace Studies hosted several
prominent guest speakers and briefing teams, and expanded its base
visit program. During the year, guest speakers included Colonel
Hubbard, Vietnam POW, addressing cadets and the public in an open
lecture in Jenkins Hall. The Electronic Security Command briefing
team visit was a great success as they gave a motivational and
informative insight into this growing major command. A panel
organized by the Arnold Air Society discussed the issue of teen
suicide.
Several other panels of both officer and NCOs from
Charleston Air Force Base and visits by active duty alumni aided
in presenting the Air Force way of life to Aerospace Studies
classes. Three base visits were conducted, giving over 180 cadets
primary orientation to the Air Force mission.
These visits will
be an ongoing and growing part of the detachment extracurricular
activities in corning years. In addition, the Flight Orientation
Program had outstanding results with over eighty cadets flying on
C-141 training missions with the 437th MAW, Charleston Air Force
Base. The Charleston Air Force Base Company Grade Officer Council
supported an additional eighty cadets with the opportunity to see
the real Air Force through the "Shadow Program" that allows cadets
to observe the daily activities of an officer while he performs
his mission.
In an AFROTC nationwide competition, Citadel AFROTC
cadets won 4th place, out of 152, in the 2nd annual Postal
Physical Fitness Test.
Staff efforts resulted in a very
respectable 8th place.
The newly formed Air Force Athletic
Association, organized and run by cadets, trained and competed in
several races including the Cooper River Bridge Run.
The
Squadron, performed community service activities in providing
manpower for the Carolina Beach Erosion Project and the Charleston
Air Force Base Young Astronauts Day. Both organizations won high
praise from the local media, environmental organizations, and the
437th MAW.
4.
Future Plans
Next year, the total enrollment in AFROTC is once again
expected to be over 700. Continued emphasis on showing cadets a
firsthand look at the Air Force and Air Force career will
underscore our cadet centered activities. We will increase all of
our existing programs next year, planning six base visits and
offering the flight orientation program to over 200 cadets. With
115
�our updated and stimulating curriculum, we expect superb results
academically in the coming year.
In our recruiting efforts, we
will continue to emphasize quality in our future Air Force
officers.

DEVELOPMENT MATTERS
General
The five development functions---fund raising, alumni
affairs, job placement, governmental affairs and public relations,
and publications complemented each other effectively in 1986-87.
B.
Fund Raising
1.
Capital Campaign
The sole project of The Citadel Development Office
during 1986-87 continued to be The General Mark W. Clark Campaign
for The Citadel Tomorrow. This unprecedented effort to raise $27
million in gifts and pledges for the college was publicly
announced on 23 October 1985.
At that time commitments to the
Campaign had reached $10.4 million, and by the beginning of fiscal
year 1987 this figure stood at approximately $15 million.
During this fiscal year, an additional $5 million has
been given, committed or pledged through the various fundraising
entities at the college. Of the total, some $4.8 million has been
pledged during the Campaign period to The Citadel Development
Foundation. This figure includes Citadel Development Foundation
annual fund efforts as well as specific deferred commitments made
through the campaign to that organization.
For the same time
period, The Brigadier Club has reported $2.7 million added to
annual fundraising and memorial fund efforts.
Scholarship gifts
have also been significant, and, in the period since the
Campaign's 1 January 1983 start date, now total over $2.6 million.
In sum, Citadel development Foundation, Brigadier and
scholarship gifts have accounted for approximately $10 million of
the Campaign's $20 million total, and Campaign efforts have added
an additional $10 million in case gifts, endowments and
commitments to the college. During this period, the Campaign has
received three pledges of $1 million or more, and over 30
commitments in excess of $100,000. Gifts of real property are now
over $1 million and some $1.5 million in gift bonds will mature,
at various dates, over the next 30 years.
The Campaign has been an unqualified success in terms
of effort and the return on that effort, and helps ensure the
college's future fiscal stability.
Using the Campaign as a
vehicle, the other fundraising entities have benefitted from this
combined approach.
The Campaign as a focus for The Citadel's
unique educational image has led to new and significant major
gifts and commitments from alumni, corporations, foundations and
friends.
During fiscal year 1987, alumni solicitation efforts, by
mail, were conducted in most of South Carolina, North Carolina,
Georgia, and the Virginia-Maryland-Delaware-District of Columbia
119
�region. Alumni in these regions account for over SO% of the total
alumni on the current mailing list.
During fiscal year 1988,
major campaign efforts will be directed at alumni solicitation in
the Florida region, completion of solicitation in the Northeastern
region, and initiation of solicitation in the Midwest, Southwest,
and, if possible, the Pacific Coast.
A meeting of the Campaign Cabinet and Leadership
Committee was held on 8 April 1987.
An emphasis at enhancing the
public relations aspects of this campaign was suggested so that
all Citadel constituents know of the Campaign's status and needs
during this third and final phase leading to the total fund goal.
2.
Citadel Development Foundation
Citadel Development Foundation received $1,215,734 in
gifts during the year.
Alumni donated $1,023,200, parents and
other friends $76,716, businesses and industries $61,098, and
foundations $54,720.
3.
The Brigadier Club, Inc.
The Brigadier Club, Inc., received $145,000 in cash,
$160,000 in life insurance benefits and $582,000 in pledges during
fiscal year 1987 for a total of $887,000 in commitments toward its
memorial fund.
120
�C.
Alumni Affairs
The office of Alumni Affairs and Placement expanded during
the fourth quarter of 1986-87 when the publications office was
transferred from the development staff to the staff of alumni
affairs. While the duties will remain the same, the Director of
Publications, Mrs. Rose Marie McCarty, will report to the Director
of Alumni Affairs and Placement.
The realignment puts the
Director of Publications in the same proximity as alumni affairs
which represents the publications office's largest single user.
Alumni participation and interest continued at a very high
level. The "Nesmith incident" with its accompanying national
publicity acted as a catalyst in generating alumni interest and
support. The football coaching change also had a positive impact
on alumni relations. This interest was evidenced by significantly
increased attendance at club meetings, and phone calls and letters
to the Association.
CAPP was revitalized during the past year. A well attended
seminar on recruiting and admissions kicked off the college year.
Another conference is planned for October 1987.
The Government Affairs Committee continues to function as a
statewide organization that alerts alumni throughout the State of
legislative matters affecting the institution and helps devise
appropriate action.
The Career Insight Program presents seminars and deals with
cadets in career awareness and placement. The alumni network is
extensively used in dealing with cadets from various geographical
backgrounds and who have various interests.
Alumni clubs remain a valued part of the advancement program.
Citadel Development Foundation, the Brigadier Club, and the
Capital Campaign use clubs to reach alumni.
There are 50 active
Citadel Clubs.
Major Association activities of the 1986-87 academic year
included the following:
1. Publishing Alumni News and "Through the Sally Port, 11
an informal newsletter to all alumni.
2.
3.
away games.
Homecoming activities.
Pre-and post-receptions for all home games and many
4.
Servicing Citadel Clubs.
5.
Alumni travel.
6.
Marketing Programs. Two significant programs were
121
�introduced this year.
The Citadel - A Portrait was mailed to
nearly 5,000 alumni and parents.
According to Association
records, this represents the most widely circulated work on The
Citadel.
A credit .card program was recently introduced to all
alumni and graduating seniors. Early returns indicate that this
also will be a well accepted program.
One hundred three (103)
members of the class of 1987 became Life Members of the
Association upon graduation. This represented 25% of the class.
The Association plans a more aggressive campaign that has a goal
of registering 50% of each class as life members.
Nearly 50% of addressable alumni are members of the
Association, giving The Citadel one of the highest alumni
participation rates of all colleges and universities.
D.
Placement
Placement activity continued on an accelerated level. The
strong economy continued to be a major factor.
Seminars were
mandatory for seniors who had registered with the placement
office. The seminars covered resume preparation, job hunting
techniques and interviewing skills.
One hundred forty-five (145) students, representing SO% of
the non-commissioned seniors, registered with the placement
office.
As of April 30, forty-one
(41) or 28% had secured jobs.
This figure is not complete and additional surveys will be made
during the summer.
For comparison, 81% of the Class of 1986 who
worked through the placement office secured employment by August
of 1986.
Seventy-one (71) firms recruited on campus for an 11%
increase over 1985-86.
These visits generated 116 interview
schedules, a 60% increase over the previous year. One thousand
six hundred twenty-four (1,624) individual interviews were
generated representing a 50% increase.
Twenty-eight companies
recruited for MBAs; however, only three MBA students utilized the
services of the placement office.
The placement office developed the Job Search Manual in the
summer of 1986, designed specifically for Citadel cadets and
students. · over 250 of these books were issued during the fall of
1986. It outlines how to use the placement office and offers
sound job search advice.
The manual has been made an integral
part of the placement process.
The Alumni Career Network has been strengthened and more
clearly defined through a survey sent to all addressable alumni in
August 1986. Over 300 alumni identified themselves as willing to
be active in the Alumni Career Network. ·This network is utilized
by prospective graduates as well as job-seeking alumni. It is
also utilized by underclassmen looking for summer and temporary
jobs.
122
�The Career Fair sponsored by the ·placement office and
Association of Citadel Men grew to 35 companies, 10 more than the
previous year. Five career search seminars were sponsored by the
Placement Office and Association.
E.

Editor, is responsible for keeping all Citadel constituencies
informed concerning the aspects of the college of most interest to
them, accomplishing marketing and promotional objectives of great
value to the college, enhancing the image of The Citadel, and
providing information about the college to campus visitors.

specific objectives of the various administrative and academic
departments with effective, attractive, and accurate information

Alumni News, the high-quality, quarterly publication of the
Association of Citadel Men, continues to be well-received.
Its
coverage of major campus happenings, activities in sports and
academic departments, as well as alumni activities is praised by
alumni and other readers.

Citadel Men mailed to all alumni, continued as a valued and
informative communication.
Through this publication alumni
received an accurate account of the racial incident on campus.
The Citadel Calendar Comments, published monthly during the
college year, has taken on a bright, new look and furnishes more
comprehensive news for members of the faculty, staff, retirees,
Advisory Committee, Board of Visitors, selected alumni and other
entities.
F.
Governmental and Public Relations ·
The relationship between The Citadel and the South Carolina
General Assembly continued to improve during fiscal year 1986-87.
Senator Thomas L. Moore (D), Edgefield-Aiken Counties and
Rep. Frank E. McBride (D), Richland County, were appointed as exofficio members to the Board of Visitors replacing Sen. Nick
Theodore, elected as Lieutenant Governor of the State, and Rep.
Larry Blanding, reassigned from the Committee with appointment
responsibilities to The Citadel.
During the Legislative session, one bill was passed and
signed into law, with specific interest to The Citadel. House
Bill 2121 made it unlawful for any person to intentionally or
recklessly engage in acts which may cause physical harm for the
purpose of initiation of affiliation into any chartered student
organization.

whether State, Federal or educational were specifically exempt
from the intent of the bill.
The Citadel receiv~d favor~ble national publicity from wire
service coverage of remarks made by Secretary of Education,
William J. Bennett (1986 Commencement Speaker), on 8 July to the
Heritage Foundation in Washington, D. C. concerning the successful
drug prevention programs in operation at The Citadel.
The opening of college year 1986-87 on 18 August was reported
by The State and The Greenville News.
Photographs, interviews
with parents, freshmen cadets and the president resulted in both
papers printing positive stories.
National exposure for the college resulted when a Day in the
Life of America, a 272 page book of photographs taken throughout
the United States on 2 May 1986, was published in October.
The
Citadel was featured in three full-page photographs within the
book, Newsweek magazine published one of the three photographs in
an article in the DILA project and ABC's "20/20" television show,
which filmed the book being made, contained footage of The Citadel
campus.
Major state and national attraction focused on The Citadel
following a 23 October incident involving five upperclassmen and a
freshman.
The incident, one with racial overtones, was, with few
exceptions, reported accurately by the South Carolina media.
The
out-of-state media extracted or crimpressed wire ~ervice reports
and used alarming headlines that resulted in incomplete or
incorrect stories.
Columbia Broadcasting System's news show, "West 57th," senta
four-man film crew to campus for nine days of filming in January
and March.
The stated purpose of the show was to look at the
mystique of The Citadel.
The show aired on 26 May and was
overwhe lmingly considered to be very positive for the college.

THE HONOR MANUAL
OF THE
CORPS OF CADETS
1987
THE
THE
MILITARY
COLLEGE
OF
CITADEL
SOUTH
CHARLESTON,
CAROLINA
S.
C.
��FOREWORD
June 1987
TO:
The Corps of Cadets, The Citadel
The honor code is at the heart of The Citadel experience, and at a
time when colleges and universities in this country tend to be dropping
traditional honor systems . The Citadel cadet and The Citadel man stand
out more and more as men who developed during their formative years
an enduring sense of honor and duty.
The honor code belongs to the Corps, and without the Corps'
support it can no more exist than can The Citadel we know today. It is
each cadet's duty upon enrollment at The Citadel to become familiar with
the honor system as set forth in this brief honor manual, and to abide by
the honor code. It is his further duty and moral obligation to insist that
his fellow cadets live by the same code. That a cadet does not lie, cheat,
steal, or tolerate those who do is in essence all that a young man must
know and understand regarding the honor code while enrolled at The
Citadel. Particulars of the honor system the cadet learns from this manual
and from his company honor representative, to whom a cadet should go
if he must report a suspected honor violation.
As president , I support the honor system fully. It is equally
important that you as cadets, individually and collectively, support your
honor system as completely.
James A. Grimsley , Jr.
Major General, USA, Ret.
President

SECTION III - The Cadet Honor Code
4. The Honor Code: The honor code is a code of, by, and for the
Corps of Cadets. The code states that a cadet does not lie, cheat, or steal,
nor tolerate those who do . The code is the heart of the honor system, and
its purpose is to maintain honor and integrity within the Corps.
5. Violations of the Code: There are four, and only four, violations

a. Lying: Making a false official statement . An official
statement is defined as a statement, written or oral, made to a
I
�commissioned officer of the staff or of the faculty of the college, a
member of the guard on duty, or any cadet required in turn to use the
statement as a basis for an official report in any form . Quibbling is the use
of ambiguous or vague language for an argument to evade a point at
issue. Quibbling will be considered and treated as a False Official
Statement .
The following procedure will be adhered to in order to
prevent the honor code from being utilized as an investigative tool:

of the guard, or any cadet in an official position will put a specific
question to a cadet which might incriminate him 1:1nless
the following
conditions obtain:

violation of Regulations, SCCC or to the detriment of good order and the
military discipline of the Corps of Cadets .
(b) There is sufficient evidence to indicate that the
cadet being queried was involved or possesses firsthand knowledge about
that act or incident .
(2) If a delinquency report is made on a cadet based upon
facts brought out by questioning that cadet and the cadet believes the
question did not meet the above requirements he will so report in writing
to his company honor representative. The company honor representative
will inform the chairman of the honor committee, who will in turn inform
the advisor to the honor committee .
(3) The advisor to the honor committee, the chairman of
the honor committee , and the vice chairman of the honor committee will
investigate the circumstances involved in the incident and will determine
whether or not the question was proper. They will report their conclusion
to the president. If their conclusion is that the question was improper,
they will recommend to the president that the delinquency report and any
punishment awarded as a result thereof be revoked . If their conclusion is
that the question was proper, they will call in the cadet involved and
explain to him the rationale for their conclusion. If the cadet is not
satisfied with their explanation, he may appeal to the president in writing .
b. Cheating : Receiving or giving aid on a test or examination.
Test or examination includes any work performed for which a grade is
received . Plagiarism is a violation of the honor code : Plagiarism is the act
2
�of using someone else's words or ideas as your own without giving proper
credit to the source :
( l) When you quote another's words exactly you must use
quotation marks and a footnote ( or an indication in your paragraph) to
tell exactly where the words came from, down to the page number(s).
(2) When you mix another's words and ideas with your
own in one or more sentences, partially quoting the source exactly and
partially substituting your own words, you must put quotation marks
around the words you quote and not around your own. Then you cite the
source, down to the page number(s). [See (l) above]
(3) When you paraphrase another's words or ideas, that is,
when you substitute your words for another's words but keep his idea(s),
you do not use quotation marks, but you must cite the source, down to
the page number(s). [See (1) above]
(4) When you use only another;'s idea(s), knowing that they
are his ideas, you must cite the source of that idea or those ideas, down to
the page number(s). [See (1) above]
(5) Citing the source means giving, as a minimum, the
author, the title of the book, and the page number.
c. Stealing: Taking without authority personal, government, or
college property.
d. Failure to report a case of lying, cheating, or stealing as
defined above to the proper honor committee authorities .
Persons Subject to the Honor Code

followed in the chronological order outlined in the succeeding paragraphs.
24. Reporting a Violation: A cadet who knows, or believes he knows,
of a violation of the honor code will report the violation in person
immediately to his honor representative. Any cadet who has unintentionally violated the honor code must report himself to his honor
representative immediately upon discovery of the violation.
25. Action by the Honor Representative: The honor representative
shall determine, based on the evidence of the accuser (reporting cadet),
whether an investigation is warranted. If he shall determine that an
investigation is warranted, he will direct the accuser to write down the
facts to include the name of the accused and his class, the time and date of
the alleged violation, the nature of the violation, and any witnesses to the
violation. The accuser shall sign the report. The honor representative
shall present the report to the chairman of the cadet honor committee .
26. Action by the Chairman: Upon receipt of the report, the
chairman of the honor committee shall appoint a three-man investigating
committee from members of the honor committee and shall designate

27. Action by the Investigating Committee: The subcommittee shall
notify the accused of the honor code violation of which he is charged and
advise him of those rights stated in paragraph 17 above . He shall be
advised of the name of the accuser, and the names of those witnesses, if
any, who will appear against him . The committee shall make a thorough
and impartial investigation and report its findings together with its
recommendations to the chairman of the honor committee. If the
committee recommends the case be brought to trial, and the chairman
accepts that recommendation, the chairman shall set a time and date for
the trial and shall notify the accused of such time an~ date , and shall
notify him of his rights as an accused. Normally a minimum of five days
shall be allowed the accused in which to prepare his defense . The
following rules of evidence shall be adhered to by both parties . The
intention of these rules of evidence is that both parties, namely trial and
defense counsels, shall have the opportunity to cross-examine witnesses.
a. Notarized Evidence: If, for some extenuating circumstance
deemed acceptable by the chairman of the Honor Court, a witness cannot
be present at a trial, then notarized evidence may be admitted if both
defense and trial counsels are present when the testimony is taken and
10
�have had the opportunity to cross-examine the witness at that time. The
accused also has the right to be present at such cross-examination if so
desired.
b. Character Witnesses: When the chairman of the Honor
Court feels that the character of the accused has been sufficiently
established, he can rule that no further character witnesses be allowed to
testify.
c. Hearsay Evidence: If persons X and A have a conversation,
then what person A relates to the court about that conversation is not
considered hearsay. However, if person A has a conversation with person
B about the discussion with person X, then person B's relating his
knowledge of the conversation between A and Xis hearsay. Hearsay may
not be introduced .
d. Documentary Evidence: Documentary evidence (e.g., ERWs,
all-in sheets, tests, papers, etc.) may be submitted as allowable evidence.
Xerox copies may be submitted and accepted by the court . If defense
objects, then the proper authority shall certify that a xerox copy is a true
copy.
e. Testimony of Non-Cadets : Non-cadets shall not be sworn in,
but the chairman shall remind them of the gravity of the hearing and the
need for truthfulness . If a former cadet who has been expelled or resigned
under duress owing to an honor code violation or accusation gives
testimony, the trial counsel may inform the court of the circumstances
surrounding the witness's dismissal or resignation.
28. Investigating Subcommittee to be Trial Counsel: Once a case
shall come to trial before the honor court , the chairman of the
subcommittee which investigated the case shall act as trial counsel for the
trial and shall prosecute in the name of the South Carolina Corps of
Cadets of The Citadel. Other members of the investigating subcommittee
may act as assistant trial counsel, if so desired by the trial counsel.
29. Duties of Members of the Honor Court: Members of the honor
court hear the evidence and determine the guilt or innocence of the
accused. Each member sitting on the court shall have an equal voice and
vote with other members in deliberating upon and deciding all questions
submitted to a vote or ballot, the chairman having no greater rights in
such matters than any other member . Members shall be dignified and
attentive at all times.
11
�30. Voting: Each member present when a vote on any question is
taken is required to cast a vote. No member sitting on a case may abstain
from voting.
31. Challenges for Cause: The accused may challenge any member of
the honor court for cause. Deliberation in voting upon a challenge will be
in closed court, and the challenged member shall be excluded. A majority
of the ballots cast by the members present at the time the vote is taken
shall decide the question of sustaining or not sustaining the challenge. A
tie vote on a challenge shall disqualify the member challenged.
32. Findings:
a. In analyzing a specific act to determine whether or not it was
a violation of the honor code it must be determined whether there was a
deliberate attempt to deceive, evade the question, or give an erroneous
impression . To be an honor violation it must be proven beyond a
reasonable doubt that :
(I) The lie or act of deception was deliberate.
(2) There was an intent to deceive and it was dishonorable.
b. A vote of "guilty" by all of the members present at the time
the vote is taken will be required to convict an accused of a violation of
the honor code. All voting will be by secret written ballot. A member
designated by the chairman shall, in each case, collect and count the
votes. The court shall be checked by the chairman who shall announce
the result of the ballot to the members of the honor court. Findings shall
be limited to "guilty" or "not guilty." In cases where the circumstances are
considered sufficiently extenuating or mitigating, the honor court may
recommend leniency to the president.
33. Announcing the Findings : The chairman shall announce the
findings of the honor court in closed session. Prior to such announcement, he shall insure that the following personnel are present: all
members of the court who sat on the case, the trial and assistant trial
counsels, the accused and his counsel, and the faculty advisor .
34. Action in Case of Findings of Not Guilty: If the accused is found
"not guilty," the tape recording of the trial proceedings and all other
records connected with the trial will be destroyed.
35. Action in Case of Findings of Guilty: If the accused is found
"guilty" and no recommendation for leniency is made, and after he has
been so advised, the faculty advisor in the presence of the chairman of the
court will advise the accused of his rights of appeal as provided for in
-:
12 :-
�College Regulations. The chairman and the faculty advisor in company
with the accused will present the case to ·the president at which time the
convicted cadet will be advised again of his rights of appeal. If the cadet
has a reason for requesting an appeal, he may petition an honor board of
review within five days stating in his petition the ground upon which he
relies for redress.
There are three grounds for appeal: (I) new evidence, available
since the Honor Court hearing, which would indicate the findings of the
Court are in error; (2) as defined in paragraph 17 of the Honor Manual,
evidence that a cadet's rights were not protected; and (3) an error in the
trial proceedings of such magnitude as to jeopardize the fairness of the
hearing.
The President will assign three members of his staff (a Vice
President, a senior representative of the Commandant's Office, and an
academic department head) to review the petition for appeal. If the
Appeals Board feels there are sufficient grounds for appeal, it will review
the case and all pertinent evidence and make a recommendation to the
President affirming or reversing the decision of the Honor Court. When
the Board feels the criteria for appeal have not been met, it will return the
cadet's petition without action.
SECTION VII - Amendments and Changes

a. Amendments, modifications, or changes proposed during the
first semester of any year must be ratified by a three-fourths vote of the
first three classes, and approved by the president .
b. Amendments, modifications, or changes proposed during the
remainder of the academic year must be ratified by a three-fourths vote of
the Corps of Cadets and approved by the president.
31. Other Rul es and Regulations : The honor committee , with the
approval of the president , shall draw up such oth er rules and regulations
as may appear necessary for its internal managem ent and operation .
SECTION VIII - Questions and Answ ers
38. Q. When was the Hon or Code establishe d at The Citadel?
A. The origin of the current Citadel Hono r Code can be
attributed to Gen eral Mark Wayne Cla rk, Pre sident of Th e Citadel from
13
�March 1954 to June 1965. Even though the Corps had an unwritten
honor code, General Clark proposed that it be written officially. The
Corps of Cadets unanimously voted to establish the code and officially
did so in 1955.
It should be noted that even though the code was given official
sanction and formal structure, the code and system belong to the Cadet
Corps. Its life depends on the safeguards against hate and prejudice and
the individual Citadel Cadet's honor.
39.
Q. What is an honor violation?
A. The Cadet Honor Code simply states that a cadet does not lie,
cheat, steal, nor tolerate those who do. Any person subject to the Honor
Code who violates it by committing any of these four acts intentionally is
guilty of an honor violation.
Q.
Who is subject to the Honor Code?
A. All members of the SCCC. All Day Students enrolled at The
Citadel during the regular academic year are also subject to the Honor
Code but are not under the jurisdiction of the Honor Committee. Any
violation of the Honor Code by students other than Cadets are handled
by the President through the Advisor to the Honor Committee.
40.
41. Q. Why is failure to report a case of lying, cheating, or stealing
also considered an honor violation?
A. The toleration of dishonorable acts is a direct threat to the
existence of the honor code . Loyalty to this code and all cadets in the
Corps living by the code must come before loyalty to an individual. When
a cadet observes another cadet lying, cheating, or stealing and does not
report the offense, this act of toleration itself is dishonorable because it
condones and indirectly approves the original violation. When an
individual violates the honor code he breaks the bond that unites him
with the rest of the Corps and is not deserving of loyalty and special
protection.
42. Q. What should I do if I believe I have knowledge of an honor
violation?
A. In the event you feel you have seen an honor violation
committed or believe you have knowledge of an honor violation, report it
to your Honor Representative immediately. He will provide appropriate
advice and guidance.
14
�43.
Q.
44 :
Q. How is the investigation conducted?
What action follows the reporting of an honor violation?
A. If the unit Honor Representative concludes that a violation
has, in fact, occurred, he will report the incident to the Chairman of the
Honor Committee. After hearing the rationale of the unit Honor
Representative, the Chairman notifies the president of the College and
then assigns a three man investigating committee to make an impartial
and thorough investigation of the incident.
A. The Investigating Committee will notify the accused of the
specific charges and nature of the evidence against him. It will interview
all possible witnesses, weigh all evidence and make a recommendation to
the Chairman for a trial or dismissal of charges.
45. Q. What happens if the Chairman accepts the Investigating
Committee's recommendation for dismissal of charges?
A. All evidence is destroyed.
Q.
Who makes up an Honor Court?
A. Each Honor Court is made up of ten cadets, all members of the
Honor Committee with the exception of one cadet in cases involving an
underclassman. A member of the second, third or fourth class may have a
classmate, selected by the Chairman, sit on the court. In the case of fourth
classmen, this right is not afforded until the completion of one academic
semester. An underclassman appointed to the court has the full and equal
rights and duties of all the members of the court.
46.
Q.
Who can defend an accused cadet in an Honor Court?
A. An accused cadet may choose any cadet as his counsel. If the
accused does not wish to represent himself or can not find a defense
counsel, the Chairman of the Honor Committee will appoint one.
47.
48. Q. How many votes are required to convict a cadet of an honor
violation?
A. To find a cadet guilty, the court must vote unanimously.
49. Q. If found guilty by the Honor Court, what is the convicted
cadet's appelate chain?
A. Any cadet found guilty by the Honor Court may appeal the
finding to the President of The Citadel.
There are three grounds for appeal: (1) new evidence, available
15
�since the Honor Court hearing, which would indicate the findings of the
Court in error; (2) as defined in paragraph 17 of the Honor Manual,
evidence that a cadet's rights were not protected; and (3) an error in the
trial proceedings of such magnitude as to jeopardize the fairness of the
hearing.
The President will assign thre~ members of his staff (a VicePresident, a senior representative of the Commandant's Office, and an
academic department head) to review the petition for appeal. If the
Appeals Board feels there are sufficient grounds for appeal, it will review
the case and all pertinent evidence and make a recommendation to the
President affirming or reversing the decision of the Honor Court. When
the Board feels the criteria for appeal have not been met, it will return the
cadet's petition without action .
Q.
What is an open trial and what purpose does it serve?
A. Any cadet brought before an Honor Court has the right to an
open or closed court. This is decided by the accused 24 hours prior to the
court. Only members of the Corps of Cadets will be allowed to view an
open court. The number allowed is limited by the available number of
seats. Observers will be selected from the Corps by the Chairman and / or
Secretary . The primary purpose of the open court opt ion is to allow the
members of the Corps to witness their Honor Court system in action.
50.
51.
Q.
52.
Q. ls the "social lie" an honor violation?
What is "quibbling"?
A. "Quibbling" is the recourse to technicalities to hide the truth, or
presenting a half-truth when the whole truth , as understood by the cadet,
is required.
A. This is not an easy question to answer . It is understood that the
amenities of living together in society require people to be tactful, i.e.,
telling your date's mother you loved the spinach she fixed when you know
you hate it. Basically, you must determine if there is intent to deceive in
that a statement or action seeks to protect or give unfair advantage to the
accused or other individuals involved . If the answer is yes, there may be
reason to believe an honor violation may have been committed .
Q.
Why is plagiarism considered an honor violation?
A. Plagiarism is the stealing and use of another person's writing
and ideas. In presenting written work a cadet is expected to identify the
53.
16
�ideas which are not his own and give appropriate to the source. To do
otherwise is to mislead the reader (instructor) and receive unwarranted
credit. It is cheating. When a cadet signs his name to a paper he is
authentiating that all the work has been accomplished by him.
Q.
What is the meaning of my signature on a document?
A. Once you place your signature on a document you have in fact
certified that the information in that document is, to the best of your
knowledge , true and fully understood . Your signature on all-in reports
is evidence that the information contained in that report is correct, and
based upon your personal inspection. If, however, your signature is
affixed to a document which is incorrect, and there was no "intent" to
deceive on your part , then you may not be guilty of violating the Honor
Code. Read what you sign - verify the contents and remember that your
signature is your bond .
54.
Q.
What is an improper question?
A. The Honor Code should not be used by a commissioned
officer of the staff or faculty, member of the guard, or any cadet in an
official position as an investigative tool. In other words, there must be
sufficient evidence that the cadet being queried was involved or possesses
first hand knowledge of an alleged offense to be asked an incriminating
question.
55.
56. Q. What should I do if I believe that the question asked me is
improper ?
A . A cadet is obligated by the highest degree of military discipline
to answer the question; however, he does have the means of appealing
any punishments a warded him as a result of answering such quest ions .
Q.
When and ho w do I report an impr oper question ?
A . A cadet, after answering the quest io n, will so report what he
believes to be an improper question , in writ ing, to his Company Honor
Representative . The Company Honor Representative will inform the
Chairman of the Honor Committee, who will in turn inform the Advisor
to the Honor Committee . The Advisor to the Honor Committee, the
Chairman of the Honor Committe e, and the Vice Chairman of the
Honor Committee will investigate the circumstances involved in the
incident and will determine whether or not the question or request for
written explanation was proper. They will report their conclusion to the
57.
17
�President . If their conclusion is that the question was improper they will
recommend to the President that the delinquency report and any
punishment awarded as a result thereof be revoked. If their conclusion is
that the question was proper, they will call in the cadet involved and
explain to him the rationale for their conclusion . If the cadet is not
satisfied with their explanation he may appeal to the President in writing.
58. Q. With whom does the responsibility of knowing the Honor
System rest?
A. It is one of the duties of the Honor Committee to keep the
Corps informed of new interpretations of the Honor System . However, it
is the duty of every cadet to know the system by which he lives. The
responsibility rests with the individual. If you have a question or are
confused about any aspect of the Honor Code, see your Honor
Representative immediately .
59. Q. What happens when a cadet does not know the provisions of
the Honor System, but suddenly finds he may be in trouble with the
system ?
A. Ignorance of the provisions of the Honor System can not be
accepted as a defense. You must know your system!
SECTION IX 60.
CASE 1:
Honor Case Examples
LYING
Upon entering the campus approximately two hours late from
General Leave, Cadet A reported to his Battalion O.G. that he had
experienced car trouble. The O.G., in relating the experience to the O.D .
the following day, discovered Cadet A did not own a car and that he had
arrived at the main gate in a taxi. Cadet A had told the SLG that he had
gotten into an argument with his fiancee and the demerits would give
him tours .
The O.G. repor~ed Cadet A for lying and the Investigating
Committee discovered evidence by two eyewitnesses (i.e., two cadets) that
Cadet A was seen all evening at a local tavern boasting that he could
re-enter the campus and no one could restrict him.
Upon hearing the evidence the Honor Committee determined that
Cadet A was guilty of the honor violation of lying. Cadet A was dismissed
from school.

�61.
CASE 2:
LYING
One night, while acting as Officer-in-Charge,
approached by Cadet A who had a Charleston Pass
would sign it. For purpose and destination Cadet A
dinner with my father who is visiting from New York."
the pass.
Captain X was
and asked if he
had written: "to
The O.C. signed
Later that night Captain X received a phone call from the Medical
University Librarian who stated that two cadets were making a
disturbance in the library and refused to leave . The O.C . instructed the
O.D. to bring the cadets to him.
When the O.D. returned he had Cadet A in the jeep. Captain X
asked where his father was and Cadet A stated, "in New York, where he
always is!"
Cadet A was charged and found guilty of the honor violation of
lying .
62.
CASE 3:
LYING
After receiving a class delinquency report (CDR) for being absent
from 0800 class, Cadet A wrote an CDR explaining that he had been in
the hospital at the time of the class. The Assistant Commandant
investigated the CDR and could find no record of his being in the
infirmary either in the Comm~ndant's Department or in the infirmary.
He charged Cadet A with an honor violation of lying.
Upon investigation, Cadet A stated he had entered the infirmary to
soak his foot for which he had been receiving periodic care . He had not
bothered to sign in because of the long line. He entered at 0730 hours and
left at 0830 hours and saw it useless to go to class so late. Additionally
there was no indication of treatment in his file by the nurse on duty.
During the hearing Cadet B who had been in the infirmary therapy
room (where all physical therapy was performed) testified that he had not
seen Cadet A on that morning .
Cadet A was found guilty of the honor violation of lying . This
decision was based on the statement made by Cadet A that he had been in
the same room with the Cadet B and his overestimation of the number of
cadets in the infirmary that morning (the record showed five cadets,
19
�including Cadet B, had signed in); and no entry in his file at the infirmary
by the nurse on duty.
63.
CASE 4:
CHEATING
Professor X, a Statistics Professor, made up two separate tests to
give to two different sections. At the last minute, Professor X decided to
give both tests to both classes. Test #1 would be given to the 1st row, #2 to
the second row, etc., so that each row had a different test.
Upon receiving the tests prior to grading, Professor X noticed that
Cadets A and B had identical answers. This struck the Professor as being
strange because they both had different tests. In addition, both Cadet A's
and B's set of answers were wrong. Professor X referred it to the Honor
Committee Chairman.
After meeting their Honor Representative, the Chairman notified
the Cadets that they had been charged with cheating.
Cadet A resigned immediately. Cadet B maintained that he had no
knowledge of the violation and that A must have copied his paper
without his knowing about it.
The Investigating Committee found an abundance of evidence to
back Cadet B's story and recommended no trial. The Chairman accepted
the recommendation.
64.
CASE 5:
STEALING
Cadet D was seen coming out of Cadet L's room with an armful of
clothes by two freshmen one Saturday evening . Since they were in a
different company they thought nothing of it; however, approximately
two weeks later they heard that civilian clothes from Cadet L's room had
been stolen. They reported this to their Company Honor Representative
who felt that charges should be filed.
Charges were filed, and in the Honor Committee hearing it was
discovered that a search of Cadet D's room turned up several articles of
Cadet L's clothing . Cadet D maintained that he had only borrowed the
clothes planning to return them.
The Honor Committee, in its decision, felt that the time and
circumstance proved that Cadet D was guilty of the violation of stealing
20
�because of the length of time the clothing had been kept showed Cadet D
intended to keep the clothing permanently . Cadet D was dismissed from
school as the result of this violation.
The freshmen received official reprimands for not reporting the case
earlier.
65.
CASE 6:
TOLERATION
One night in the room of Cadets X and Y, Cadet Z related his
knowledge of an honor violation by Cadet A. He revealed the details to
Cadets X and Y, but stated that he was no "fink" and would never turn in
a friend.
Cadets X and Y felt this was a violation of toleration and asked their
Company Honor Representative but they felt toleration would be
difficult to prove. They learned that indeed the other violation had been
reported; therefore, Cadet Z was subsequently reported for toleration.
At Cadet Z's hearing the information he had related to Cadets X and
Y was of such a nature that only someone directly involved could have
been aware of the situation . Evidence proved that Cadet Z did willingly
withold information of an honor violation and he was convicted of
toleration. He appealed to the President; however, the decision was
upheld.

CASE 7:
IMPROPER
QUESTION
One night during ESP, Cadet A saw someone climbing over the
fence into Hampton Park . After all-in Cadet A approached Cadet Z who
had a reputation for going AWOL. Cadet A asked Cadet Zif he had gone
AWOL that evening . Cadet Z replied that he had been AWOL.
Cadet Z then went to see his Company Honor Representative who
in turn reported the incident to the Chairman of the Honor Committee .
The Chairman recommended to the Advisor of the Honor Committee
and the President that this line of questioning was improper, and that any
punishment should be dropped. The President accepted the recommendation. The rationale was that Cadet A did not have sufficient
evidence to directly question Cadet Z concerning the offense.

CASE 8:
QUIBBLING
On 01 December, Cadet X went AWOL at 0110, ten minutes after
the "All-In" report had been taken. Cadet X returned to the battalion
through the side sallyport at 0300, two hours after the end of General
Leave . The O.G., who saw Cadet X return , put Cadet X on report for
"Absent Without Leave on 01 Dec." Cadet X responded on the
subsequent ER W, that the report was incorrect as he had been present for
"All-In" on 01 Dec. The O.G ., suspecting an Honor violation, notified the
Honor Committee . An investigation by the Honor Committee concluded
that although the Delinquency Report had not been specific in the timing
in the offense, it was obvious to Cadet X that the O.G. did not question
his presence at All-In, but his whereabouts following the end of General
Leave on the date of the offense . The Honor Committee ruled that Cadet
X had purposely responded to the ER W with evasive ambiguous
language, thereby Quibbling. He was found guilty and expelled from the
college.
