2022 Virginia Press Association Award for Journalistic Integrity and Community Service
Welcome to The Cadet newspaper, one of the oldest independent college newspapers in Virginia. The Cadet newspaper has remained the independent voice of the Corps of Cadets and Its Alumni since its creation in 1871, its transition to a newspaper format in 1907, and continues to do so today, with cadets having editorial control over the newspaper’s contents. Our mission is to support the journalistic pursuits in publishing the student-produced and alumni-supported medium of news and information by cadets and alumni in continuing the positive and proud tradition and enhancing the bonds between these two essential groups. The interaction will enhance the academic, military, intellectual, and professional development experiences of cadet members interested in careers in journalism or related fields, while also offering leadership opportunities to practice academic, military, and personal skills.
