October!

(The Cadet Experience, Class of 2013) Permanent link All Posts

October! We have officially survived midterms with most of our sanity intact. This has been a busy few weeks as cadets studied for their mid-semester exams and prepared for the arrival of their parents. I’m not sure which is more daunting. But in true Academy fashion everything worked out in the end. As a 2/c in the Parents’ Weekend Division, I saw a lot of the work that goes into making Parents’ Weekend so special, and the immense responsibility my firstie had. As our division workload decreases my excitement for Thanksgiving increases, but first we’ll dress up and celebrate the end of October and our mutual appreciation for pumpkins, costumes, and chocolate. This is the most colorful season at the Academy; I’m ready to see the trees and sidewalks crowded with the fall colors.
