If you wear contacts/glasses, you will submit your eye prescriptions with your PTR paperwork so can provide your “stylish” thick black rims for Plebe Summer. Make sure you have a current eye exam and a glasses prescription ready next month. (No contacts until the academic year begins).
**However, bring your personal glasses with you, or give them to someone who is at I-Day and will see you after the oath. No matter how early you submitted your paperwork, a few of them don’t get made every year and you won’t find out until you’re in-processed. My plebe was one of those, and thankfully I had his glasses in my backpack to give him after the oath before they marched back into Bancroft. Otherwise he would have been a little blind for the first few weeks!
