VT Corps of Cadets

The Corps was well represented by our very own Highty-Tighties during the St. Patrick's Day parade in Savannah! Outstanding job, cadets! Check out more coverage of the HTs at the 16 min mark: wtoc.com/2026/03/17/wto… (Video by Helena Clark) @StudentsAtVT @virginia_tech

It was 80 degrees here yesterday. We hope our Hokies are having a warm, sunny Spring Break wherever they are!

We were honored to host Dr. Susan Yoshihara for the Cutchins Leadership Lecture Series, where she spoke with cadets about leading with character, unity, and a strong moral compass. We’re grateful for the insight and perspective she shared with the Corps.

We are running several photo contests this semester for our cadets, and this is our first winner! Congratulations to Cadet Carmella Wheeler on her excellent shot of Upper Quad. Do you have a favorite photo of campus? Share it in the comments!

Last month, partners from the Corps, Hokie Wellness, and Cook Counseling presented at the NASPA Conference for military‑connected students, highlighting a multiyear effort to unify university resources in support of cadet well‑being and mental health.@StudentsAtVT @virginia_tech
