context_page_description: The President of The Citadel is the chief administrator of The Citadel. Previously known as the Superintendent, the title was changed in 1921 during the tenure of Colonel Oliver J. Bond.
  The Citadel, located in Charleston, South Carolina, was a component of the South Carolina Military Academy from 1845 to 1865. The Arsenal Academy, located in Columbia, South Carolina made up the other portion of the Academy, with cadets receiving their initial training in the first year at The Arsenal before moving to The Citadel to complete the final three years of their education. Each campus had its own Superintendent, but reported to the same Board of Visitors. Initially, both superintendents held the rank of Captain, but in 1845 The Citadel's superintendent became a Major.
  On April 12, 2018, The Citadel announced that General Glenn M. Walters was selected from a pool of four finalists to lead the college after the retirement of Lt. General John Rosa, slated for June 30, 2018. Walters assumed the Presidency on October 5, 2018.
  Presidents of The Citadel today occupy a home on campus known as Quarters One.
