 CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - Ten years ago, The Citadel threw open its doors to women after a protracted, heated legal fight. On Saturday, a new class of 650 freshmen — including about 40 women — arrive. But the challenge of bringing women into the once all-male cadet corps isn't over. Some male cadets and alumni still don't like the idea.
"There will always be pockets of people who don't want a coed school," said Nancy Mace Jackson, the college's first female cadet graduate.
Tara Woodside, a junior from Salem, N.J., was in grade school when Jackson arrived on campus.
