Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets

The College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences may occupy Lane Hall, but for the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets, it’s still considered home. The Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets was moved out of its former Barracks No. 1 years ago, but today’s cadets continue a 120-year-old tradition by standing retreat in front of the hall each evening.  One of the oldest buildings on campus, Lane Hall still bears hundreds of signatures scratched into its bricks and mortar by cadets. Some of those etchings date back more than 100 years.
