The Citadel fought the admission of women. Now a female cadet will lead the corps. When Sarah Zorn applied for admission to the famed Southern military college 4 years ago, she hadn’t heard the story of Shannon Faulkner, the first woman to gain full admission there. Sarah didn’t know about the legal battle that had forced the college to accept Shannon, or the death threats, or the sexist epithets spray-painted on her parents’ house, or the federal marshals who escorted Shannon to campus on her first day as a cadet in 1995, or that she’d dropped out a week later. Today, Sarah knows. But the 21-year-old college junior believes that the 175-year-old South Carolina institution that once fought admitting women has made its peace with the idea. And her accession today as the Citadel’s first female regimental commander — the top cadet — is her proof. “I think that women are fully embraced as cadets here,” she told our reporter Richard Fausset. “You hear a lot of times from fellow cadets, and even from alumni, that having women here has even improved the college.” If sexism remains at the Citadel, she said, she has not experienced it personally. “You’re treated as an equal,” she said, “and you are expected to perform as an equal.” @alyssaschukar took this photos at the Citadel this week. We’ll be following up with Sarah later this year; stay tuned for more.
