    Computer refund for plebes

    We received an email some time ago regarding the plebe computer situation. If memory serves, I think the email was relayed through the national parents association, but I could be wrong. The email said something to the effect that the computers issued to plebes this year ended up being less...

    Across US we can celebrate together

    What an absolutely wonderful idea! Thanks for the recipe and the suggestion....... and mostly for bringing a little bit of "home" to so many students so far from home. You may see how much the students appreciate you firsthand, but you can't possibly know how much the parents appreciate you...

    Textbook question.. Chemistry

    Not to worry - breaks will be interrupted only slightly and just enough to keep things fresh. I totally hear you.

    Textbook question.. Chemistry

    Wondering if any students might be able to help with this. I am trying to locate the ISBN number for the chem book that is used plebe year (Chem 1). Would like to make tutoring arrangements for upcoming breaks, etc. and see if it is on cramster. DS doesn't know anyone still taking chem and...

    Major Specific School Supplies

    Can somebody help me out? I know I saw this sompelace and my memory is shot...... I saw a list of school items that plebes will need to purchase specific to their major once they have completed first tri. There was a list of items for engine majors and a list for deck majors and it looked...

    Helicopter Parents

    I speak only for myself, but this plebe parent agrees 100% with KPMidshipman. I am not the slightest bit insulted by this post. Based on my limited experience of indoc and one tri, I can say with certainty that at this point in my KP experience I’d be hard pressed to say I have enough...

    Early Notification of Admission?

    The waiting is, indeed, pure hell. Hang in there. I remember checking the application status page 57 times a day. You can make yourself crazy with that - and the waiting is not just for the LOA. You'll also be waiting to hear on the nominations which can come at all kinds of crazy...

    Cookie Cafe

    Just to add another review, in the words of our DS "Oh my God, Cookie Cafe ROCKS!!!". It was his first visit and he didn't realize it happens just about every week. What a happy boy when he found out he can go weekly!! Kudos to all the parents and friends of KP who make it happen! You do...

    KP vs CG Game

    I hesitate to say since it was overheard in a conversation between two CGA security officers who had no idea which side I was rooting for. Let's just say it had to do with some attempted larceny on the not so high seas that was being attempted against one of our beloved craft. The security...

    WOW and holy cr@p!!!!!! I'm not even an alum and I'm furious...... and REALLY glad I will be at that game to cheer on my Mariners! I hope any parents, alum and friends who live close enough can make it to the game and show a real PRESENCE. Bears never have been my favorite animal, now I know...

    Homecoming Weekend

    I am seeing a number of activities listed for Homecoming Weekend 9/24-26 on the regimental calendar. Are parents who live locally allowed to attend these events? I realize the football game is probably open to anyone who wants to attend but I see Beat Retreat is scheduled for 0930 on Saturday...

    last minute planner

    I am so glad someone started this thread. We have a similar situation with our daughter who had a commitment for the weekend and at the last minute (after it was too late to buy another badge) her schedule changed so she will be able to attend on Saturday. We figured the football game would...

    Hurricane/parents weekend

    If I may scandalously steal a catchphrase......"Attitude - the difference between an ordeal and an adventure". Having weathered many years of hurricanes on the East coast's various shores, I'm sure we'll do fine if prepared with the appropriate clothing and equipment. I would, however...
