Anthony D. Griffin Memorial Scholarship

The Anthony D. Griffin Memorial Scholarship was initiated in 1983 as the result of contributions from classmates, family, and friends of Lieutenant Anthony D. Griffin, The Citadel Class of 1974. The scholarship is named in memory of Lieutenant Griffin, who was killed in a Naval aircraft crash. Scholarships are available to cadets with financial need who possess attributes in accord with the high standards of The Citadel and are members of the Summerall Guards or Junior Sword Drill Unit, preferably not the commander of either. The first award was made in 1986.
