A closed Facebook group has been created for parents of those cadet candidates who have accepted their appointments. It's titled West Point Class of 2020 Parents. Thought I'd get the word out.
I've resisted joining FB for many reasons. With a few exceptions (and this is one) I don't think I've missed much. Do you know if the information is also available on some form of bulletin board or email update sort of thing?
I've been an IT tech heavy for 30 years and have managed to avoid FB, Twitter, Instagram, snapchat, etc. You will miss nothing of importance by avoiding FB. Everything you need to know you can get from anonymous Internet forums like this one, from the academy itself and its website, and from your cadet. If it's entertainment you're seeking, that's another story.
I believe they use a verification with picture of the appointment. Based on other threads, you request to join, they ask for the appropriate responses, and then you can join.Curious to know how the admin of the FB will know if we are parents of an appointee? Anyway thanks. I look forward to joining the group.
