Class of 1959-Roger C. Poole Scholarship

The Class of 1959-Roger C. Poole Scholarship was initiated in 2000 as a result of contributions from members of the Class of 1959. The scholarship was established in honor of Brig. Gen. Roger C. Poole, The Citadel Class of 1959, former Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College, and Interim President. Scholarships are available to cadets who possess citizen-soldier ideals and intend to sign an ROTC contract. The award recipient must maintain a 2.5 GPA to continue receiving this scholarship award and sign an ROTC contract when offered. A new recipient will be selected when the predecessor graduates or is discontinued. The first award was made in 2003.
