GRADUATION--LOCATIONS
From Knob Knowledge
From 1893 to 1910 the commencement exercises often took place in locations other than Charleston.
1893 - Aiken
1894 - New York
1895 - Camden
1899 - Orangeburg
1903 - Winthrop, Rock Hill
1905 - Columbia
1907 - Norfolk, V.A. (one of the features of the Jamestown Exposition was to see cadets drill and graduate)
1910 - Lander College, Greenwood
This traveling occurred because the commencement exercises were sometimes part of the summer encampment. (Source: Oliver J. Bond, The Story of The Citadel, pp. 165, 226-227. U430 .C5 S57 1989) (HN)
