I am so confused what the heckLook pal, the Aluminums of Duke TiP are the people with the hats made from Reynolds Wrap. They are very ahead of their time and it's a very exclusive club. They sing that old George M. Cohan classic "Over There !" as part of their initiation.
sorry for bothering you but why?!OK, thanks.
You’re not bothering me. I teach high school. Hardly anything bothers me.s

Oh! HahahhahahahahhaOkay. Just having a little fun with the post from @wjfpc1. Possibly my comic timing was a bit off.
The misspelled words in question were alumnus (in lieu of "aluminums") and their (in lieu of "there") in your original post.
+5 points for use of 'i lieu of'. Good job!Okay. Just having a little fun with the post from @wjfpc1. Possibly my comic timing was a bit off.

You can look at the class profile from previous years (think Capt MJ posted it). You cannot get into the academy based solely on your athleticism. Do not make any assumptions about atheltes not being brainiacs. I believe one of last year's football starters branched med school, sooooooooo. Any candidate who might need a little buffering up on academics, who the Academy saw significant promise in, might be a great candidate for NAPS.Does anyone know if Naval Academy athletes are scholarly or are they just "average" with their studies
