Cadet Hostess Office

The Cadet Hostess Office assists with the social development of the United States Corps of Cadets, with a focus on social etiquette and military protocol. The Cadet Hostess has supported the Corps since 1931. Today, that support includes etiquette training and cultural awareness to better prepare cadets and young officers to interact in a global society.

Seminars and workshops are also offered on a variety of topics including dining etiquette and networking and reception etiquette. Outside professionals are secured to present instruction in ballroom dance, modern line dance, wine appreciation, and fashion and personal appearance. Support is giving to all cadet banquets and class weekend events. The Cadet Hostess Office maintains a small library of social, global, and service etiquette books.
