	"In Glory's Shadow: Shannon Faulkner, the Citadel and a Changing America" by Catherine S. Manegold - Salon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Faulkner's determination, according to Manegold, started from what she perceived as the unfairness of a publicly-funded college -- one better equipped than most in the state -- that excluded women.
		It reminds us that Faulkner wasn't the only recruit who headed home before a week was out; it shows us boys sobbing, sweating in fear, standing at attention until their muscles spasmed as they were screamed at by sophomore officers venting their rage over their own knob humiliations from the previous year.
		Shannon Faulkner left the Citadel trailed by rebel yells of triumph from the barracks.

		Faulkner may not have been the hero everyone wanted, but she had the courage of her convictions, and for that I admired her.
		Shannon Faulkner’s reasons were the same as her would-be peers: the Citadel would be an anchor in a world of moral and spiritual drift, and it would give her access to a professional network of others who wore “the ring.” As far as the Citadel was concerned, she existed solely to destroy a well-preserved tradition.
		What finally drove Faulkner from the school (the first of 95 cadets to leave that year) wasn’t that she was out of shape and couldn’t take it, as there wasn’t that much physically to take.

		In 1992, Shannon Faulkner made national headlines when, having been refused admission to the Citadel, an all-male, state-funded military academy, she sued the state of South Carolina.
