Hello Everyone,
As the school year grows closer I'm becomming more and more excited to attend The Citadel! With that, I have a few questions I've been thinking about...( I realize that most of these I will discover when I attend, but I'm just curious- and being from Iowa, I can't easily visit.)
1. Is it random what company/ battalion group you are placed in? (Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, etc)
2. I'm considering running track for The Citadel, and joining the Boxing Team. Does compeating in sports make life more or less stressful in addition to the other marching and military excersizes i'll have to partake in?
3. I'm interested in doing Army ROTC- will I receive different training from somone going into Airforce, or Navy? Do the uniforms vary depending on choice of branch?
4. How is the food at The Citadel? Are you allowed to eat protein shakes, and muscle building supplements on campus?
5. I'm VERY interested in the Ranger Challenge Team- does anyone know how competitive it is to get on the team?
6. I know that you can leave campus on the weekends, is this for all cadets? Or just knobs? Can an upperclassman leave campus not on a weekend?
Sorry for all the questions, I'm just excited about the next year and these are what popped in my mind.
