Despite a challenging economy, The Citadel campus has benefited richly from some majorrenovation efforts in recent months.Facility renovations and new construction projects on campus are difficult to bring about in thecurrent fiscal landscape. While negotiating significant state appropriation cuts, the college mustalso fund recurring deferred maintenance costs of nearly $4 million per year.In the absence of an infusion of state support, construction projects are all but impossible thesedays—except, of course, for those funded by private contributions.Thankfully, in recent years, several generous people, reunion classes and private foundations havestepped forward to make a lasting mark on The Citadel, beautifying the campus, enhancing theacademic resources available to students and expanding the essential footprint of the college.Daniel LibraryGrand ideas flourish in grand spaces. Daniel Library has received a major aesthetic and structural renewal, thanks largelyto a $1.5 million grant from the Daniel Foundation of Alabama.A $150,000 grant from The Post and Courier Foundation allowed the library to improve the technology available tostudents and faculty, paving the way for the Information Commons that now stands where the reference desk was previouslylocated.Citadel alumni have also stepped forward to help move the project along. The Class of 1970, in celebration of its 40threunion, donated $250,000 for the new entryway and stairwell. And marking its 30th reunion, the Class of 1980 hascommitted $250,000 for a Leadership Library Reading Room.50 The Citadel 2011
