The Regiment is a military- style organization and is governed by a set of Rules and Regulations similar to those of federal service academies. Upon acceptance into the Regiment students are required to participate in an Indoctrination period, to familiarize them with the College’s Regimental system. The Regimental system offers a vehicle for developing the leadership skills of the Cadets, supports the professional training of the Cadets, and provides a framework for safely managing a large number of Cadets at sea on the training ship. Members of the Regiment must adhere to the general Maritime Student Code of Conduct as well as the Rules and Regulations for the Regiment of Cadets. For more information about the Regimental system, the Rules and Regulations, Indoctrination or any concerns regarding the Regiment of Cadets, please contact a member of the Regimental Affairs Staff at any of the above phone numbers.
