Our program describes our core values of duty, honor, and respect and positions them as the basis of a principled leader鈥檚 frame of reference. It identifies and defines seven characteristics that principled leaders manifest in all they do. It provides the structure for 涩里番鈥檚 long tradition of developing the 鈥渨hole person鈥 by putting leadership in the context of the character, academic, military and fitness pillars. It breaks the overall developmental process down into the prepare, engage, serve and lead stages that are tied to each of a cadet鈥檚 four years at 涩里番. Finally, it articulates the combination of challenge and support that must be present for growth to occur.
