8. While Maxine Hudson was the first woman to graduate from The Citadel's Graduate College in 1969...

The first woman to graduate from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, was Nancy Mace, who graduated in 1999 with a degree in Business Administration. She was also the first female cadet to graduate from the Corps of Cadets program. While Maxine Hudson was the first woman to graduate from The Citadel's Graduate College in 1969, it was Mace who broke the barrier for women in the main, military college.

Just to clear this up. She was the first to graduate from the Military College but not the first to graduate from the Citadel.
