Welcome to the Directorate of Cadet Activities


The mission of DCA is to significantly enhance the development of the United States Corps of Cadets militarily, physically, academically, moral-ethically, spiritually, and socially by providing organized, comprehensive and diverse programs and facilities, which provide for entertainment, extracurricular, recreational, cultural and social activities.

DCA operates the Eisenhower Hall Theatre, the Cadet Restaurant, Grant Hall, the Cadet Store, and the Cadet Bookstore.


Within DCA, cadet publications are produced such as the award-winning Howitzer Yearbook, the West Point Calendar, Bugle Notes, the Circle in the Spiral Literary Journal, and the West Point Planner.

Cadet Programs sponsors weekly events such as dances and yearly traditions including Ring Weekend, Yearling Winter Weekend, and Plebe-Parent Weekend.

The Extracurricular, Business, Transportation, and Procurement branches of DCA work together to provide cadet clubs with support and equipment.

In order to maximize the use and exposure of West Point, the West Point Club (WPC) has partnered with the Directorate of Cadet Activities (DCA) for catering services. The WPC is West Point's caterer for all non-cadet related events and the entry point for all catering questions. Should the WPC, due to size restrictions or date conflicts, be unable to cater your event there is an agreement in place that allows the WPC to refer you to their partner, DCA, located in Eisenhower Hall.

And of course, the Eisenhower Hall Theatre, the East Coast's second largest cultural arts theatre, remains the Hudson Valley's premiere theatre presenting a host of world class performances annually.
