"ocular moisture issues" - love that in my soul. I'm sure our DS will miss his mates spectacularly not as long after graduation as he may think right now.

Great post. Question - is that still a thing for the graduating MIDS to stay in Bancroft the night before graduation? As a parent, I have nothing whatsoever against that, but this is the first I've heard it, so I am curious. It actually sounds like a good idea.

Excellent advice here! We are super excited about all that Commissioning Week has to offer, but we can also tell (since January!) that our Mid is ready to be away from there.

Thank you kindly!

Does anyone know when it is known/announced for the graduating class who made the top 10% (the graduating "with distinction" group, based on overall order of merit)? Do they have to wait until after final grades are in for spring semester (so not until about a week prior to the actual...

Ain't no work gettin' done here tomorrow! 🤣

I've been viewing them all day on YouTube - good stuff.

OMG it's tomorrow, and the waiting and suspense will be over! Does anyone know if it's ever livestreamed? Or, what time it all "goes down" tomorrow?

Only 10 days left!!!!

Does anyone know if Service Assignment Night (November 16 - just about 6 weeks away) is livestreamed anywhere?

Thank you so so much for your reply and the "sample" schedule - super helpful! Ours is in Charlie Company.

We have a 2C "Exchanger" son at CGA for this semester from USNA. I see that Parents Weekend is scheduled for Oct 7-9, but can find no other details anywhere. Is it for all classes (4C - 1C)? Will there be registration for specific events? Can parents join their cadet in classes and dine with...

Wondering if any current Mid parents have heard the rumors that there could be an advance showing at yard next Thursday? Mine told me there's a mysterious "unmarked" 5-hour block in Alumni Hall for an unknown event and that many Mids are speculating that this could be for the new movie.

Just saw this gem on Facebook, apologies if it's been posted here previously.

Thank you for that. I do wonder if USNA ever allows parents to do those things (attend classes, eat in King Hall) when it is not 2C Parents Weekend - say in the Spring? No, the trip to USNA is way too long and expensive for us to attend 2C Parent Weekend if our Mid is not there.
