[members] 5/28/2013 – USNA Out Welcomes the Class of 2017

So how’s the Cow?

USNA Out got heads up on three LGBT appointees to the Class of 2017 from three different sources. A big thanks to those USNA Out members who tipped us off.

To “welcome” the three appointees, USNA Out presented each of them a copy of Reef Points with a short recommended reading list on rates that they will need to eventually know by the end of their upcoming Plebe Summer. Just as younger siblings get the advantage of learning from their older brothers or sisters, our family of LGBT future midshipmen should have that same advantage.

So what’s best way to get up on your Plebe Rates??

Perhaps we should have included a synopsis of the mutagenic effects of ultraviolet radiation.

The three candidates will all be issued their own personal copy of Reef Points 2013-2014 on I–Day. We hope that the Class of 2017 will help us “pass down” the tradition of welcoming the LGB appointees about whom we know each year before the Class of 2018 begins their first summer at USNA.

Appointees are not eligible to join USNA Out until after they have taken the Oath of Office as a Midshipman, and then, they will be without the ability to communicate until after Plebe Parent’s Weekend at the end of the summer.
