Becoming cadets

Photos by Logan Wallace

The school year started early for 335 first-year cadets who reported for New Cadet Week training on Saturday, Aug. 16. Keeping step with a meticulously planned schedule of paperwork, haircuts, and uniform fittings, the new cadets used every free moment to study the Guidon, the manual of information they must learn as members of the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets. At the end of the week, the Class of 2018 cadets participated in their first official formation and pass in review on the Drillfield.
