Abstract

On the surface, West Point’s long line of cadet moral development may not seem obvious. Perhaps notable alumni, its history in educating engineers, or maybe even its architecture are commonly thought of first. However, upon closer examination and consideration of the Academy’s dynamic curricular and extracurricular structure we find, throughout its history, that the moral and character education and development of its cadets is the foundation upon which engineers are taught and buildings are constructed.
