正澳门六合彩开奖结果 Dahlonega Campus Traditions and Annual Events
Drill Field
No cutting across! The , named in honor of the North Georgia graduate who attained four-star general rank, is considered hallowed ground. The entire campus community is welcome to use it for appropriate purposes when it is not otherwise in use, and outdoor events often are held there. However, one of the university's long-standing traditions precludes using the Drill Field as a shortcut; this is not considered respectful of the field.
Formations Have the Right-Of-Way
There's a group of marching cadets ahead...what do I do? Formations have the formal right-of-way on the roads of 正澳门六合彩开奖结果's campus. Treat them as you would a slow vehicle. Formation leaders will often try to maneuver their cadets so that vehicles may safely pass, but this is not always easy or safe to do. Be patient.
Reveille & Retreat
The cannon is fired every morning (0700) and afternoon (1700) from the location known as the with the rising and lowering of the flag The triangle is located between the Drill Field and .

Memorial Wall

As of April 2016 ceremony, there were 116 alumni names read and currently, there are 65 names on the student section. It is tradition that those who pass through the area stop to pay their respects to the fallen before exiting.
Arches
The archway was dedicated by the Class of 1951 to the Class of 1950. Freshmen will not walk under the arch at the front entrance to campus until completion of their freshman year. This tradition was established in honor of the Class of 1950, whose graduates saw combat action in Korea and who lost 5 men in Korea only 1 year after graduating. During the freshman year, Cadets are instructed to use the smaller arch constructed to the left side of the NGCSU archway to respect the wishes of the Class of 1951. Once the rite of passage is complete (Freshman year), Students can walk underneath the large Archway.
