Jonathan Jarrett of Mocksville is one of nearly 500 cadets and students recognized for their academic achievements during the spring 2020 semester at The Citadel in Charleston, S.C.

The traditional parade honoring the cadets was cancelled; but recognizing the academic successes is a tradition each semester, even one as atypical as this. These cadets and students earned their grades in unique circumstances and were able to focus on their studies while transitionally to virtual learning in March 2020.

Gold stars are awarded to cadets and students at The Citadel who achieved a 3.7 grade point average or higher. Cadets and students who achieve gold star recognition are also placed on The Citadel’s dean’s list.
