Or it could just be that my OIC never knew or informed us of this possibility. I only know that even with LOS, we couldn't schedule practice until after 1630 due to some having 7th period. Sorry for hijaking your thread!

Smartphones weren't as much an issue when I was a freshman, so there were no rules then. The only ones I've heard more recently apply more to using Facebook, music, and movies (depending on a the squadron) then data usage, and I think the rules apply whether on a computer or phone. Also, the...

I realize that this thread is about IC's, but I just wanted to input that LOS does not really do anything to one's schedule for 7th period. It only guarantees you don't have to go to scheduled activities (intramurals, training sessions) from about 1630 until ACQ (1950). Or at least that's been...

I definitely have some friends in the class of 2013 who got Development Engineer as their AFSCs (jobs) right out of the academy, so the answer to your first question is yes. Unfortunately I can't answer your follow up, but hopefully someone with more knowledge in that get back to you quickly.

Oddly enough, we've already received our base assignments, they released them on the last day of classes last semester. Still, 100s night weekend is gonna rock.

Also, as another cadre for SS, I've found/made the time to take my element to the Visitor Center for a short time.

This year it was kids ages 7-10.

I can't speak to who the cadre were for SS last year, but I know this year about 90% of us are all volunteers, and looking forward to everyone coming out, so hopefully they'll have a better experience this year. It's actually nice to hear about last year...now I can learn from your experience...

It's interesting thought that they're switching from Fujitsu, which the past three classes have had.

Probably not, considering VOIP is prohibited according to the Cadet Sight Picture (essentially the Academy rule book).

Not too sure I would agree about the majority of freshman testing into Calc II. At least, in my squadron I'd say out of our 30-ish freshmen, 2 tested in to Calc III, a handful into Calc II, and the majority into Calc I or lower. But, in any case, taking some more math if at all possible...

^^ That's what it sounds like, so far. Military instructors will pick up classes taught by civilians and things should proceed as normal (for the most part). Mitch's will still serve food. :)

For some sports, yes. Such as flag-football, rugby, and boxing (those last two are only offered to the guys). I'm pretty sure everything else is co-ed.

Freshman year a large group from my squadron went to visit our sponsor base down at Little Rock AFB. As it was before Recognition, and we were out on squadron trip, our AOC required us 4 digs to stay in a uniform, but allowed us to wear Blues with A-Jackets while in town instead of Service...

True. It's only for guys though, hence why I forgot about it.
