The Long Gray Line Lives On…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At over 35,000 strong, the men and women in the\u00a0alumni ranks of The Citadel are all over the world in leadership\u00a0positions serving our nation in the armed forces, in business, government, classrooms, hospitals, non-profit organizations and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our alumni possess a strong, lifelong affinity with their classmates, their alma mater, and our future principled leaders from all walks of life. The Office of Alumni Affairs and The Citadel Alumni Association preserve that relationship through the alumni club network and alumni events at The Citadel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All alumni are encouraged to enhance their connection to our beloved institution by joining The Citadel Alumni Association<\/a>, a nonprofit, dues-based organization which serves to support, advance and promote the ideals and purposes of The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina, through its scholarship programs, networking opportunities, online community access and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
