    CIS Grades

    There is no option to click "connect anyway" Moreover, I do not know the VPN. I tried clicking on Cisco Access Anywhere and typing in my CAC ID for the VPN but that didn't work.

    Hey everyone, how do I check my grades via CIS on my laptop from home? I know it has something to do with the VPN number but I tried my CAC ID # and it did not work.

    Alright. I was just talking about the book stipend, not how much each class gets paid per month or semester. I got $800 last week for next semester's books. Thanks.

    Book Stipend

    How much money do cadets get paid each semester or year for books? Is it true that the excess money is ours? If that's the case, I will probably CAREFULLY buy the correct books, used and save the rest of the money. Is that possible?

    Timing of periods

    All, thank you for the advice. I did not mean to sound like I was going to opt out of events that I am not comfortable with. I understand what I signed up for and am excited for every aspect. I was more asking how I could improve the situation and the sanitary aspect because not only is it...

    Timing of periods

    sorry males - I didn’t know where else to ask this. What if as a female, I get my period when we need to swim? I will not take pills, hormone shots, nor do I use tampons. Would it be ok to ask a superior at that time for advice? I understand that it’s army training and that we have to go...

    R Day Packing List

    I do not feel like there will be time nor necessity for puff and fluff either, but I genuinely don’t know how it’s possible to dry very long hair quickly without a hairdryer. Yes, I know I could cut it, but I’ve been growing this out for years after my mom gave me the classic bowl cut for my...

    R Day Packing List

    Thanks! I separated my various socks into 2 bags, and I will pack the rest too. Am I allowed to have a little toiletry bag to put my toothbrush and stuff in? Sorry, I know these are minuscule details, but I just want to make sure I am not stressing about these small things.

    R Day Packing List

    I have already read the 2022 R Day packing list many times, but what is everyone else bringing? I figure I dont need 550 cord, but is this packing list good enough? - military watch (already on wrist) - toothbrush, toothpaste, floss -shampoo/conditioner (small bottle) - body wash (small...

    Rising Cow, Ask Me Anything

    Weird questions about BCT and packing... - does USMA issue shampoo conditioner and body wash? I feel like these are rather essential but it would be a lot to carry on r day... Is bringing a small 6 inch desk fan worth it? It’s on the suggested list. How many pairs of extra socks of white and...
