Introduction 

The United States Naval Academy 

As the undergraduate college of the Navy, the Naval Academy prepares young men 

and women to become professional officers in the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. 

Naval Academy students are midshipmen on active duty in the U.S. Navy They 

attend the academy for four years, graduating with bachelor of science degrees and 

commissions as ensigns in the Navy or second lieutenants in the Marine Corps. 

Naval Academy graduates serve at least five years as naval officers. 

Around the Yard 

The scenic Naval Academy campus, known as "the Yard," is located in historic 

Annapolis, Maryland, where the Severn River flows into the Chesapeake Bay. With 

its combination of early 20th century and modern buildings, the Naval Academ) 

is a blend of tradition and modern technology that typifies today's Nav) and i\\arine Corps. Throughout the Yard, tree-shaded monuments commemorate the bravery and heroism that are an important part of the academy's heritage. Buildings 

and walkways are named for Naval Academy graduates who have contributed to 

naval history and their nation. 

The Naval Academy also is the final resting place of Revoluttonary War naval hero 

John Paul Jones whose words, "I have not yet begun to fight," have inspired gener-
Rear Admlfal Ronald F. \tarr\'Oll ,, a 1957 graduate ol the :v,nal ,\cadem1·. A,

"Everything we do here b directed toward one ob1ect1ve: tulrilling the ",aval Academy', m1ssIon to prepare midshipmen morally, mentallv and phvsically to be professional officer, in the naval service.' M� interpretation ot our mIssIon ,, that we are

,,de the gates ot the academ� With its colonial charm and busy waterlront, 

i\laryland's state capital provides a pleasant, diverse setting for one of America's 

premier colleges, the United States Naval Academy 

History 

The academ� started as the l'-aval Sthool in 1845, founded by Secretary· oi the Navy 

George Bancroft on 10 acres of old Forl Severn in Annapolis. Since then, the development ot the Naval Academy has relletted the hi;tory oi the United States. 

A, our country has changed culturally and technologically, so ha; the Naval Academ;. In 1ust a fev1. decades, the '-Jav), has moved from a fleet of ,ail and ,teampowered 

,hip, to a high-tech fleet with nuclear-powered ,ubmannes and surface ship, and 

super,onIc aircraft. The academy has changed too, giving midshipmen the up-Iodate academic and professional training they need lo make important contnbuI1on; 

a, naval off1eer; in their very first as�IgnmenIs after graduation. 

In 1850, the ',aval School became the Un11ed State; 1S;aval Academy. A new curriculum 1. .. ent into etfect requ1r1ng m1d,h1pmen to study at the academy for four 

1.ear, and to train aboard ship each summer That tormat Is the basis of a tar more 

advanled and ,oph1stica1ed curriculum at the Naval Academy today. A, the U 5.

midshipmen. And modern granite buildings replaced the old wooden structures 

of Fort Severn and the Naval School. 

Congress authorized the Naval Academy to begin awarding bachelor of science 

degrees In 1933. The academy later replaced a fixed curriculum taken bv all midshipmen with the present core curriculum plus 18 major fields of study; a wide 

variety of elective courses; and advanced study and research opportunities. 

The Naval Academy first accepted women as m1dsh1pmen in 1976 after Congress 

authorized admission of women to all of the service academies. Approximately 

125 women now enter with each plebe or freshman class. and they pursue the 

same academic and professional training as do their male classmates. 

Mission 

The Naval Academy has a unique clarity of purpose, expressed in our official mission: "To prepare midshipmen morally, mentally and physically to be professional 

officers in the naval service." This puts everyone-faculty, staff and midshipmen 

-"on the same wavelength." It also encourages a sense of spirit and pride found 

at few other schools. 

Program 

The moral, mental and physical elements of our program are equal!) important, 

all contributing to the qual1t1es of an outstanding naval officer. 

Academics 

Every midshipman's academic program begins with a core curriculum which includes courses in science, mathematics, humanities and the social sciences. This 

Is designed to give you a broad-based education which will qualify you for practically any career field in the Navy or Marine Corps. At the same time, our majors 

program gives you the opportunity to develop your particular area of academic 

interest. 

For especially capable and highly motivated students, we offer challenging honors 

programs and opportunities to start work on postgraduate degrees while still at the 

academy. 

Professional and leadership training 

We don't Just tell you about life in the Navy and Marine Corps. Over iour years 

at the Naval Academy, the life and customs of the naval service become second 

nature. First, you learn to take orders from practically everyone. But, before long, 

you acquire the responsibility for making decisions that can affect hundreds of other 

midshipmen. Your professional classroom studies are backed by many hours of 

practical experience in leadership and naval operations, including assignments with 

Navy and Marine Corps units during summer months. 

Moral education 

Honor and integrity have a long tradition in the U.S. Navy. When expensive equipment and priceless human lives are at stake, there is no room for mistrust among 

officers. Honor is not something you only read about at the academy. Our Honor 

Concept clearly states that "A midshipman will not lie, cheat or steal." Midshipmen are bound to live by that concept. In the classroom, on the athletic 11eld and 

in professional training, you are expected to consider the consequences of your 

actions and to be accountable for your decisions. 

Physical training 

We teach the importance of being physically fit and prepared for stress because 

the duties of Navy and Manne Corps officers often require long, strenuous hours 

in difficult situations. The physical requirements of Plebe Summer training, four 

years of physical education and year-round athletics also develop pride, teamwork 

_... and leadership. 
First Class Midshipman Michael T. Sheerin, or Rye, NY, is chatrman of the Naval 

Academy's f-lonor Commmee. In tlm role, he heads the midshipmen organization 

that teaches the 1-/onor Concept and handles honor violations. The 22-year-old hts· 

lory ma1or has found that serving as f-lonor Commil!ee chairman has given him 

new insights into interpersonal relationships and leadership. 

"I staned as class Honor Committee chairman m} plebe year, and I immediately 

set brigade chairman as a long-term goal. I thought it would probably be one of 

the best jobs I could have as a first classman. I think I was correct. It's been a tremendous learning experience. 

"The Honor Concept is very rmponant for the academy. In my eyes, rt is the most 

imponant aspect of development that goes on here. The ultimate goal of the academy 

rs to prepare us to be professional naval officers. Withrn that context, integrity is 

paramount. A division officer or junior officer who can't be trusted for either his 

own integrity or to instr II high standards of integrity in those under him, is ultimately going to create serious problems-from equipment failure to loss of life. 

"The Honor Concept is a means by which we can instill in future officers the desirable characteristics of personal integrity and loyalty to the service. It also builds trust 

and confidence among midshipmen. 

"I think everyone comes in here with at least the basrc principles of honor. Our 

goal is to develop those characterrstrcs further and to help them learn from therr 

mistakes. It is an educational process. Serving on the Honor Board has definitely 

given me a better perspective on personal relations. It's also given me a more tangible concept of empathy. I think I'm a less narrow-mrnded person than perhaps 

I was when I first came here."

Profile of Midshipmen 

It takes a special kind of young man and woman to handle the Naval Academy's 

demanding program, but that doesn't mean all midshipmen are alike. Midshipmen 

come from all 50 states, U.S. territories and several foreign countries. They have 

roots in cities, suburbs, farms and ranches, small towns and military bases. They 

have talents and hobbies of every kind and personalities that fit every description. 

And, they represent the diverse ethnic and cultural heritages that, together, make 

the United Stales a great nation. Some characteristics seem to be common among 

Naval Academy midshipmen, however. The charts on these pages show you that 

midshipmen are good students, leaders 1n their high schools and communities, and 

interested in athletics. But other common qualities o( midshipmen don't show up 

in statistics. The young men and women who choose the Naval Academy are looking for more than a college degree. They like the idea of being challenged mentally, physically and personally. They are people who don't want to settle for the 

ordinary, the routine or the easy. 

Midshipmen are also patriots. They want to serve their country in a meaningful 

way-in a profession that helped win this nation's independence more than 200 

years ago. Finally, midshipmen are young people who look lo the future. They see 

the oppo11unities available at the Naval Academy, as well as the exciting possibilities open to them in the Navy and Marine Corps after graduation.

Our Commitment 

Selling apart the Naval Academy from almost every other college and un1vers1ty 

in the country 1s our commitment to the total development of our students. Some 

other colleges offer more maJors 1n academics. Some put more emphasis on intercollegiate athleucs. But nowhere else do you have a belier opportunity to gro,\ 

intellectually, personally and physically than at the Naval Academy. If you've chosen 

to enter the Naval Academy, we believe you can complete this tough, four-year 

program. In tact, we are committed to the principle of helping every midshipman

•Small class size. Most classes have no more than 25 students. When you are

an upperclassman, some courses in your maior may have only five to ten other 

students. 

•Faculty to student ratio of 8 to 1 Faculty members get to knov. you personally,

in and out ot the classroom. They also are available to help with extra instruction 

or special proiects until 11 p.m every week-nigh!. It's not unusual to find professors and m1dsh1pmen burning the late-night oil together in an academy research 

lab or at a computer terminal. 

•Protected study time. Evening study period is reserved from 8 p.m. to midnight

Sunday through Friday to help all m1dsh1pmen keep up with their courses. Additional!), �im1tz Library, computer labs and other facilities are open for midshipmen use all day and evening, seven days a week.

Your Commitment 

Becoming a midshipman at the Naval Academy 1s a big step. It's not like starting 

your lreshman year at a civilian college. You make a commitment to live a military 

life-style. You take an oath ol office, pronming to be loyal to your country and 

to defend II 1f necessary. ) ou agree to be honorable in ever, thing you do and say 

You're also expected to work harder than you've ever worked before, and to push 

beyond your old limits. This is how we prepare you ior the challenging respons1-

bilit1es of a naval officer, and the opportun111es of a liiet1me in the �av) and ,"v1arine Corps. 
Richard and Russell MacCormack, twins from Los Angeles, CA, were getting ready 

to attend college ,n 1984 when they both decided to do some1hing radically different 

and enlisied in ihe Navy. Airer a year in ihe fleet, both were accepted to the Naval 

Academr Preparatory School and are now midshipmen al the academy 801h counl 

1hemselves lucky 10 have the chance to atlend the Naval Academy. 

"You have to iocus on the opportunities here-not on negative things. If you focus 

on the opportunities, you will get through here with a lot better attitude, and you'll 

learn more and have more self-confidence. You Just look at it like, 'Hey, I've got 

a great opportunity here and I might as well use it to my benefit.' You can put up 

with a little hassle, like some of the things you have to do during Plebe Summer. 

Everything worth anything is a little hard. Live day to day here. Don't think three 

months down the road. There will be some things you will have to do that you 

may not like, but you know It's going to benefit you down the road," said Russell 

"Some people think it's tough here. Some people don't want to stay past Plebe 

Summer because they think they won't make it. You have to realize that because 

you are here, there are 12 other people who didn't get accepted. They would love 

to be in your place. You have to commit yourself to stay, to feel an obligation to 

the people who chose you to come here, and to do the best you can. A lot of people think It's an achievement 1ust to get accepted but, 1f you're out for the true 

achievement of the academy, it's to complete the four-year program," Richard asserted.

Admissions 

Competition to become a midshipman is keen because more than 1-l,000 apply 

annually for adm1ss1on. We choose those young men and women who demonstrate the best potenual to successfully complete the Naval Academy's challenging 

four-year program and to serve with distinction as leaders in the Navy and Marine 

Corps. 

Applying to enter the Naval Academy is like applying to civilian colleges in some 

ways, but it's different in other respects. Besides reviewing your academic record, 

our Admissions Board needs to evaluate your medical and dental health, physical 

fitness, leadership potential and motivation to be a midshipman and a naval officer. 

You must be recommended by teachers; interviewed by an academy representative; and nominated by a U.S. congressman or other source. 

This very thorough process ensures that the best qualified candidates from around 

the United States are selected for admission. All candidates have an equal opportunity, and all eligible men and women are strongly encouraged to apply. The number of minority group members 111 recent years has risen to about 16-18 percent 

of each class entering the academy. Women make up about 10 percent of each 

new class. 
Naval Academy Dean of Admissions John W. Renard has a JO-year associacion 

w,ch the Naval Academy. He graduated from the academy with the Class of 1955 

and returned to Annapolis later in his Navy career to serve as a baua/ion officer 

and then as executive assistant to the supenncendent. As a retired Navy captain, 

he became Dean of Admissions in May 1985. 

"In adm1ss1ons, we make extra efforts to match young people to the academy, because we recognize that the academy is not for everyone. We don't want to bring 

in someone who won't be able to complete the program successfully. Also, we're 

selecting candidates for a career, not Just for college. That really sets us apart from 

other colleges. We hire all of our graduates, in effect. Plus, military faculty and 

staff members later will serve with their former students in the Navy and Marine 

Corps. 

"Members of the Admissions Board spend countless hours reviewing candidates. 

This is a tough job because most of the young people applying for the Naval Academy are achievers: highly motivated, well-rounded young men and women who 

excel not only academically, but also in athletics and in extracurricular activities. 

"I personally believe that all of the candidates we accept can successfully complete the program if they maintain their desire and motivation. In fact, for the last 

seven years, we have averaged a graduation rate of 76 percent. I think this is attributable to the combination of our taking great care to match candidates to our 

program, and then helping them succeed while they are here."

must be signed and agreed to orally by United States mid,hipmen on Induction Day· I. __ , having been appointed a m1d,h1pman in the United States 

Navy, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will ,upport and defend the Cons111u11on 

of the United State, against all enemies ioreign and domestic: that I \\ ill bear true 

tanh and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation treel�, without any mental reservation or purpo,e ot evasion; and that I will well and ia1thtully discharge 

the duties of the office on v. hich I am about to enter; so help me God." 

Resignations and Separations 

If 1·ou enter rhe \,a\a/ A.cadem} direcr/�- /rom civilian /,/e, you assume a five-year 

military obligation according to the Agreement to Serve .\1idsh1pmen who don·r 

fulfill this agreement could be transferred 10 the Naval or /1.larine Corp, Reserve 

in an enli,ted status and ordered by the Secretary oi the "lav\ to serve on active 

duty for a period not to exceed four years, as provided by Title 10, U.S Code, Section 6959 I fowever, in practice, the tallowing policies currently applv to m1d,h1pmen who enter the academy irom a civilian status: •If you are discharged or your resignauon is accepted betore the tirst dav ol cla,ses

of your ,econd-cla,, (Junior) year you are discharged from the naval ,ervice. 
•If you leave the academy after beginning the academic year as a second-class

midshipman (junior) but bef

ore the start of first-class year, you are obligated to serve 

for two years in an enlisted status unless you are considered physically disqualified, unfit or unsuited for military service. •If you leave the academy aher the start of first-class (senior) academic year, you

have a three-year obligation to serve in an enlisted status. •If you refuse a commission upon graduation, your enlisted service obligal1on 1s four years. 

If you enter the Naval Academy from the regular or reserve component of the Na\-y 

or Martne Corps, including the Naval Academy Preparatory School, the remaining 

period of your enlistment or obligated service is not terminated when you accept 

an appointment to the academy. Therefore, if you do not fulfill the Agreement to 

Serve, you will return to enlisted status to complete the period of service for which 

enlisted or obligated, as provided by Tille 10, U.S. Code, Section 516. In calculating 

the unexpired part of an enlistment or period of obligated service, time as a midshipman is counted as service under that enlistment or service obligation. However, 

if you are discharged or your resignation is accepted after beginning your secondclass academic year at the Naval Academy, you incur the same obligations described 

above for those who enter the academy from civilian life. 

In either case, if you leave the Naval Academy aher the start of your second-class 

year or refuse a commission upon graduation and do not complete the appropriate 

active-duty service obligation, whether voluntarily or through misconduct, you can 

be required lo reimburse the United States for the cost of education received al 

the Naval Academy. This cost is computed by the Naval Academy and includes 

lhe costs of professors' salaries, supplies and other expenses. It 1s comparable to 

the tuition of a first-rate private university. The amount to be reimbursed in a particular case varies proportionally with the period of unserved obligation, ranging 

up to the entire cost of education 

Costs and Financial Obligations 

Before entering the Naval Academy, you must deposit $1,500 to be used as partial 

payment for your uniforms and supplies, including a personal computer. This deposit 

is not refundable. In cases of extreme hardship, the amount of the deposit can be 

reduced or waived by the academy, and then made up through deductions from 

pay over four years as a midshipman. 

A $1,500 interest-free loan from the federal government is advanced to entering 

midshipmen to help defray first-year costs not covered by the deposit. This loan 

is repaid through monthly deductions from midshipman pay during the four years 

at the academy. 

If you voluntarily leave the Naval Academy before repaying these and any other 

obligations, you must pay the debts 1n full before separation. If you are separated 

involuntarily, you must turn 1n enough uniforms and equipment suitable for reissue lo pay your debts. If these reclaimed items don't cover your indebtedness, you 

must pay the difference. 

Documentation 

To be admitted to the Naval Academy, you must submit documentary evidence 

of birth. A certified copy of your birth certificate is the best evidence. If you are 

a U.S. citizen born outside of the United States, you must show proof of your citizenship in the form of a Department of State, consular or other government birth report. 

In any case, if the name on your evidence of birth is not identrcal to your current 

name, a court order authorizing a name change is required. 

You also must have a Social Security number when you report to the Naval 

Academy 

Reporting for Induction Day 

If you accept an appointment to the Naval Academy, you'll report for induction 

in early July, prepared lo lake the Oath of Office and begin Plebe Summer with 

your new classmates from around the nation. It will be one of the biggest days in 

your life. We'll tell you whal to bring and how to make travel arrangements to Annapoli�.

As an enlisted electronics technician assigned to the guided missile cruiser USS 

Biddle, Walter Scou was always impressed by the Naval Academy officers over 

h,m. He decided to pursue both a college degree and a career as a naval officer 

through the Naval Academy. Since the Monaca, PA, native didn't have enough 

time ,n service for a direct nomination to the academy, he accepted an opportunity 10 atlend the Naval Academy Preparatory School (NAPS) first Now a midshipman, Scou thinks the year at NAPS was well spent. 

"NAPS definitely gave me a good preparation for the academy. At NAPS you study 

math, physics, chemistry, computers and English in five or six classes a day. Each 

class 1n itself is not difficult, but the combined load of all those classes can be tough. 

That's the thing about NAPS that prepares you best for the Naval Academy-you 

learn time management and setting priorities. That's probably the hardest thing about 

the academy for some people. 

"If you graduate from NAPS, you have the skills necessary to take you through plebe year at least. If you are coming out of the fleet, it gives you the time to brush 

up on your skills in mathematics and science. 

"I think if you come to the Naval Academy from NAPS, you've proven you really 

want to be here. Some people who come straight in might not have to put forth 

a lot of effort to get in here, or this may have been one of many choices. But, if 

you've gone through NAPS, you know this is what you really want to do--to be 

a Navy or Marine Corps officer. It makes you very career oriented, and this makes 

you successful. 

"I had completed two years of college at West Virginia University and, when I made 

my decision to come here, I had been already accepted as a Junior at Florida Atlantic University. I could have finished my schooling in just two years. Now, here 

it is three years later and I'm only a freshman. But I never regretted my decision 

to come here. I want to be a good Marine Corps or Navy officer, and this is the 

best way to learn how." 

Visiting the Academy 

A personal visit to Annapolis can help you make a decision about attending the 

Naval Academy. You and your family are encouraged to tour the academy any 

day of the year during regular visiting hours, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. You can take a guided tour with a commercial service in Annapolis or through the academy's own Visitors Center, which offers tours hourly from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day from March 

1 to Thanksgiving weekend. 

Our admissions staff does not conduct guided tours, but admissions counselors located in Leahy Hall are available to answer your questions from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

Monday through Friday and from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday. No appointment 

is necessary. Once you are a candidate for admission, several special programs 

are available to give you a close look at midshipmen life: 

Bancroft Hall Candidate Visitation Program. This is a program for highly competitive candidates who are likely to receive appointments. It's a chance to spend one 

weekend with the Brigade of Midshipmen. Between November and April, from 

9 a.m on Friday until 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, you live with your midshipman host, 

attend classes, eat in King Hall and sleep 1n Bancroft Hall. 

Academy Information Day. On two Saturdays 1n March, candidates and their parents are invited to the Naval Academy for orientation tours, briefings by the Superintendent, Commandant, Academic Dean and admissions representatives and 

informal discussions with individual midshipmen. 

Orientation Day. The academy offers a lull-day orientation in mid-May for candidates offered appointments to the academy. 
Alternate Routes to Admission 

II you are not ,elected for a direct appointment to the Naval Academy, the academy\ Admissions Board automatically considers you for selection to the Naval Academy Preparatory School and the Naval Academy Foundc111on preparatory schools.

Medical Considerations 

The Department of Defense Medical Examination Review Board (DODMERB) in 

Colorado Springs, CO, schedules your medical examination and evaluates your 

medical cond1t1on very carefully when you are being considered for an appointment to the Naval Academy. This is to determine whether you have a medical cond1t1on that might interfere with or be aggravated by the academy's rigorous program 

or bar you from unrestricted seNice as a naval officer. 

Medical considerations are summarized here so that you and your physician and 

dentist can estimate whether you meet the basic requirements for admission to the 

academy. This is not a comprehensive listing of all disqualifying conditions, but 

a brief and general guide for your convenience. 

Waivers 

Some medical requirements can be waived for candidates who otherwise are very 

promising. The report of your medical examination is reviewed carefully and you 

receive a written explanation of the results. If you have a disqualifying condition 

but would like us to consider your application further, you may request a waiver 

of the standard. DODMERB then may ask you to provide amplifying information 

on the condition or to undergo evaluation by a medical specialist. DODMERB 

reviews all of the available information and makes a final determination. If your 

condition may be waived and not all conditions may, your entire record is reconsidered by the Adm1ss1ons Board. The board grants a waiver if your record suggests 

you have greater potential for success as a midshipman and a naval officer than 

do competing candidates who are physically qualified. 
Medical History 

DODMERB will review your medical history for intormat1on on illnes,C',, in1unc,, 

surgery, familial diseases and other information which might afiect your physical 

cond1t1on. They might ask you to submit add1t1onal report, from physician, or ho,pitals. Correctable problems, including dental defects, ,hould be taken care of before your e,aminat1on tor the Naval Academy. 

Eyes and Vision 

Thi, ,s the most common problem area for candidate,. Our b,NC requirement for 

admission is normal (20/20) uncorrected vi,ual acuit) in each eve. \\ a,ver, can 

be granted to a limited number of candidates who do not meet th,, standard ii they 

have exceptional scholastic and leadership potential ,ind meet the following requirements: 

•Vision corrects to 20/20 in each eye with eyeglasses (not contact lenses).

•Refractive error does not exceed 5.50 diopters in any meridian in either eye.

•Astigmatism 1s not more than 3 00 diopters in both eyes.

•The d1fferen,e in refractive error between the tv.·o eyes does not ei..ceed 3.50

diopters. 

The Adm1ss1ons Board automatically considers waiver of the visual acuity standard 

for all candidates who are otherwise qualified. You don't have to reque,t a v1,ual 

acuity waiver. 

Color perception mus1 be normal. Color v1s1on is retested on Induction Day. 

Keratoconus 1s d1squal1fying. Radial keratotomy 1-..eratomileu,is. orthol-.eratolog) 

and all other surgical or mechanical procedures performed to correct visual acuity 

are disqualifying, and waivers are not comidered. 

If you wear glasses or contact lenses, take them with you to your exam1nat1on II 

you wear soft contact lenses, do not use them during the three days preceding your 

examination. Do not use hard or gas-permeable contact lense, for 21 days before 

your examination. 

Height and Weight Standards 

Waivers may be granted by the Admissions Board to a limited number oi e,cept1onal candidates whose height falls above or belov. normal standards. We,ght standards may also be waived in exceptional cases, but obe,,ry is disqualifying and will 

not be wa,ved.Cand,dates who have not been granted a waiver and who exceed 

the weight standard on Induction Day should expect to be disqualified

Captain Richard Maruszewsk1 serves 1he Naval Academy in two imporlant ways. 

A Naval Reserve omcer recalled Lo active duty as an associate professor, he teaches 

courses tn calculus, differenual equations, matrix theory and probability. He is also 

a Naval Academy lnformauon Officer, or Blue and Gold officer, coumeling prospective candidates from Maryland on adm1rnom procedures and ltfe at the Naval 

Academy. 

"I found olll about the Blue and Gold officer program when I was teaching in New 

York. One of my students applied to the Naval Academy and asked me to help 

him with his application I thought it would be rewarding to be a Blue and Gold 

officer, and ii has been. By the way, that student I first helped to apply went on 

to graduate from the academy and he is now in submarine school in Groton, CT. 

30 

"As a Blue and Gold officer, I interview prospective candidates and submit reports 

on their potential. A big part of the interviews, besides evaluating the candidates, 

rs trying to give them a good idea of what life is like at the academy and making 

sure they are up to the challenges. We want to make sure they understand what 

plebe summer, the first semester and the first year are like. We make sure they 

know there 1s a certain amount of rigor necessary immediately upon arnval, and 

we emphasize that there 1s a considerable academic challenge throughout the fouryear program. As a result, I think candidates are well prepared for what they will 

encounter here. 

"The academy has well established systems for the preparation of candidates. That 

is necessary because we have to do the best rob possible of accepting young people who can be successful here. Competition for admission is really keen. The Blue 

and Gold oHicer program gives us a chance to make intelligent, informed decisrons when we are choosing those who can meet the challenges here."

Life at the 

Naval Academy 

We can't tell you exactly what four years at the Naval Academy would be like for 

you personally, but we can describe our philosophy, our curriculum and the daily 

life you can expect. Only when you experience the exhausting rigors of Plebe Summer, only when you face the responsibility of commanding other midshipmen, and 

only when you throw your cap into the air at graduation will you really know what 

the Naval Academy experience 1s all about. We can explain that the four years 

at Annapolis are lightly structured. While there are many ways vou can pursue your 

individual areas of interest, a four-year program is required of all midshipmen. In 

this section, we'll give you a general description of life at Annapolis. Later chapters 

give you the details of the academic, athletic and professional training programs. 

Definitions 

Let's start with a few basics. On your first day at the academy, you begin learning 

a whole new vocabulary of nautical and Naval Academ) terms. Before long, the 

floor 1s the "deck;" the wall is the "bulkhead;" and the restroom is the "head. 

Likewise, midshipmen seniority 1s stated an a way different from traditional college 

terms. We designate our class ranks this way: 

Freshman 

Sophomore 

Junior 

Senior 

= Fourth class, or "plebe" 

= Third class, or "youngster" 

= Second class, or "segundo" 

= First class, or "t1rst1e" 
All Naval Academy students, men and women, are called "midshipmen," which 

is a rank between chief warrant officer and ensign in the Navy. A midshipman firstclass is a senior. The student body is the Brigade of M1dsh1pmen, or simply the 

brigade, and the naval service often Is called "the fleet." The brigade Is divided 

into six battalions. Sn< companies make up each battalion, making a total ot 36 

companies. The midshipmen command structure, headed by a first-class midshipman chosen for outstanding leadership performance to be Brigade Commander, 

is responsible for much of the brigade's day-to-day activities as well as the professional training of midshipmen. Overseeing all brigade activ111es is the Commandant of Midshipmen, an active-duty Navy officer of captain's rank or above Working 

for the commandant, experienced Navy and Marine Corps officer, are assigned 

as company and battalion officers. 

Four-Year Summary 

The pull--0ut chart on the back of this page Is a diagram showmg the highlights of the 

Naval Academy's four-year program. Each year at the academy builds on the learning 

and experience oi the previous year. As you complete basic courses and begin advanced studies, you also take on more responsibility in leading underclassmen at 

Annapolis and acting as a junior officer during summer professional training with 

the fleet. 

Life in the Brigade 

No matter what your background, chances are the living arrangements at the academy are different from anything you've experienced. The day begins with reveille 

and ends with "lights out." You stand watches, march to meals and wear unitorms 

for almost everything you do. You and your roommates must keep your room ready 

for a military inspection at any time and keep your uniforms in regulation condition. Demerits are "awarded" for a room or uniform that is not in proper order 

or "squared away." All midshipmen live in Bancroft Hall, a huge dormitory complex. You are assigned to a room with one or more other midshipmen, and live 

in close proximity to about 1 10 other midshipmen in your company. Men and women midshipmen from all iour classes make up each company. Each company ha, 

its own living area, called the "wardroom," for meetings and recreation. The company Is the most important unit of the 4,500-member Brigade of Midshipmen. Many 

of your most rewarding experiences al the Naval Academy are those you share 

Midshipman First Class Ty Schieber commands the 6th Company, which was the 

color company during the 1986-1987 academic year. The color company is selected 

based on excellence ,n academics, military drill, professional knowledge and athleucs. Members of the color company are recognized as the best in the Brigade 

of Midshipmen, and they have those bragging rights-as well as spec,a/ privilegesfor an entire year. Selected midshipmen from the color company carry the National, Navy, Marine Corps and Naval Academy flags in parades and special events. 

According 10 Schieber, there's more to the color compeution than just the rewards 

of being at the top. 

"The color competition is healthy for the entire brigade because it allows us to 

compete at a group level without detracting from the mission of the academy as 

a whole. Each company might have its own particular personality depending on 

its leadership, but they all have a common goal. The competition makes everyone 

strive to do his or her best. Competing against each other as compantes makes every member of the brigade try a little harder 

"Being 111 the color company challenges you even more, because you want to prove 

you can maintain the high level of performance that earned you the honor. It makes 

you very proud, individually and as part of a group. Of the 4,500 people here, 

you're part of a group of 110 that have excelled. You are supposedly the best the 

academy has to offer, and that's quite an accomplishment in this highly competI1ive environment That motivates you to work even harder - In academics, athletics and on the drill field-to reach even higher levels than before."

There also are many cultural, ,ocial and sports ac tl\·I11es ,pon,ored b) the academ\. 
Spectator sports 

On autumn weekends, the excitement and color ol Navy football sweeps the 

brigade. All midshipmen anend home games in Navy-Manne Corps stadium. Groups 

of midshipmen also attend most away games. The football season ends with the 

whole brigade cheering on the team in the traditional Army-Navy game in Philadelphia. There are 32 other varsity Navy teams to cheer on, as well. Outstanding spectator facil111es bring out enthusiastic Navy supporters for almost every rivalry from 

wrestling and sw1mm1ng to lacrosse, basketball, soccer and baseball. 

Social events 

The Brrgade Activities Committee plans several special weekends during the year, 

including events like the annual International Ball with young guests from "embassy row" 1n Washington. Midshipmen groups also plan and participate in theatrical 

events, concert, and dinners. Senior naval officers Join midshipmen regularly for 

trad111onal "mess night;'' featuring formal rule; of order, formal toasts, skits and 

fines. Individual companies of midshipmen often organize their own special act1v1t1e, on weel-,ends. Certainly the highlight of our social calendar is Commissioning Weel-. rn May- 11ve days of dances, garden parties, parades, concerts, sailing 

and a Blue Angels flight demonstration leading to graduation and commissioning

leave and Privileges 

The Naval Academy's combined academic, miliIary and physical development programs demand a lot of effort, requiring you 10 spend more time on campus than 

Ihe typical civilian college student Bui midshipmen enjoy Christmas and summer 

vacations (leave) plus shorter periods of time off (liberty). Free lime to be away from 

the academy is based in large pan on assigned military responsibiliues, performance in academic and military endeavors, and class seniority. You earn more liberty 

and privileges each year you advance al the academy. All midshipmen generally 

are granted leave during these periods: •A three-week Christmas vacation at the end of the fall semester. •Mid-term leave during spring semester. •A shori break at 1he end of spring semester and before Commissioning Week. •A month-long summer vacation for all but new plebes, staggered according to

the summer's professional training schedule. 

During semesters of the academic year, off-campus privileges fall into two categories: 

town liberty and weekend liberty. Town liberty permils you to go anywhere within 

a 22-mile radius of the academy, which encompasses Baltimore's Inner Harbor atlractions. Weekend liberty permits you to leave the academy after your last class 

on Friday and travel beyond 22 miles before reIurning Sunday evening. Liberty 

curfews differ according to seniority. You are not eligible for liberty if you're assigned a military watch {rotated responsibilities) or if you're having serious difficulty 

in academics, conduct or military performance. Generally, town and weekend liberty 

is auihorized for midshipmen as follows: •Plebes have town liberty within 22 miles of the academy on Saturday afternoons

and evenings, and liberty within the Naval Academy complex on Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons. Plebes can date on at least four weekends during the 

year and Ihroughout Commissioning Week. Special weekend liberty may be granted on special occasions such as Thanksgiving. •Five liberty weekends each semester are authorized for third-classmen, eight

a semester for second-classmen. •First-classmen have town liberty all day Saturday, Sunday morning and afternoon, Wednesday afternoon and Friday evening after classes. They also have unl1m1ted weekend liberty, except when assigned military watches. 

Motor Vehicles 

Restrictions apply to your use of motor vehicles as a midshipman. This is necessary bPcausf' parking space is very limi1ed a1 Ihe academy and in Annapolis. Also. 

you hdve limited time off in the first years to make use of a private vehicle. These 

are the current rules: •As a plebe you are not permitted to operate motor vehicles except when authorized leave, such a, during Christmas vacation. •Third-class midshipmen may have a car or truck but must mainlain and operate

It beyond the town liberty limits (22 miles). •Second-class midshipmen may have a car or true!-. but must mainiain and operate it at leas! two miles beyond academy grounds. •First-class midshipmen may drive a car or truck in Annapolis and on board the

Naval Academy, and can park at the academy. •No midshipman 1s allowed to maintain or operate a motorcycle wnhin town

liberty limits. 

Alcohol and Drugs 

As a fulure naval officer, you learn at 1he Naval Academy 10 drink in a responsible 

way if at all, and to shun illegal drugs entirely. Normally, plebes are not allowed 

10 consume alcoholic beverages except when on leave away irom Ihe academy. 

As an upperclass midshipman, you may drink if you are 1he minimum legal age 

for drinking in the state, 21 in Maryland. The use of illegal drugs is strictly forbidden and almost always results in expulsion from 1he academy. As a midshipman, 

you are subject to random drug testing through urinalysis, consistent with Navywide policies and procedures. 
Services 

Almost everything you need as a midshipman is available on the academy grounds. 

There's a bookstore, unitonn and railor shop, cobbler shop, snack bar, barber shops, 

post office recreation rooms and bmvl111g alley. We also provide the following 

services. 

Dining 

The entire brigade eats at one lime in a massive dining area or wardroom, King 

Hall. Companies sit together and food 1s served family-style. The typical daily diet 

adds up to abour 4,500 calories and includes such dishes as steak, home-baked 

bread, rolls and pastries, homemade ice cream, spiced ;hrimp, steamed Chesapeake 

crabs and Mexican cui;1ne All of the food for the 15,000 meals served daily is 

prepared by our iood service staff in the kitchens adjacent to King Hall. 

Medical and Dental Care 

Modern factl1t1es for medical and dental treatment are located in Bancroft I Jail and 

are statied by '\Javy corpsmen, nurses, doctors, dental technicians and dentists. Midshipmen receive regular medical and dental exams. Midshipmen requiring hosp1tal1-

zat1on are senr to the Naval Hospital in nearby Bethesda, MD. 

Counseling Services 

We also have a m1dsh1pman counseling center started by psychologists who can 

help wl!h adjustmenr, academic, vocational, interpersonal and stress-related 

problems. Programs tor tension control, weight control and alcohol education also 

are available Our learning center offers help with time management, and reading,

Academic and 

Professional Education 

To prepare midshipmen as naval officers, the Naval Academy's curriculum blends 

proiess1onal subjects "1th required and electi\'e courses similar to those offered 

at leading civilian colleges Our curriculum has three basic elements: 

•Core requirements 111 the humanities, engineering, social sciences and natural

sciences, assuring that graduates are able to think, solve problems and express conclusions clearlv 

•Core academic courses and practical training teaching the protess1onal and

leadership skills required of Navy and Marine Corps officers. 

•An academic maIor 111 a subject chosen by midshipmen to develop their individual intere�h and talents. 

Accreditation 

The Na, al Academy has been accredited by such institutions as the Middle States 

Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools since 1930. In addition seven oi 

the Naval Academy's engineering majors are proiess1onally accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission oi the Accreditation Board ot Engineering and 

Technology (ABET). The computer science major Is re, 1ewed by the Computer 

Science Accred1tat1on Board and the chemistf\ major is accredited b) the Amencan Chemical Society. 

Degree Awarded 

Upon graduation, you are awarded a Bachelor of Science degree. All m1dsh1pmen, 

regardless of their major, receive the 8.5. degree because oi the technical wntent 

of the core curriculum. Those in the top ten percent ot their class graduate "with 
d1s11nct1on." Those who have completed ,pecial honor, programs in seleued ma1or, 

graduate "with honors." 

Educational Philosophy 

The Naval Academy's philosophy of education stresses 1nd1vidual JttentIon to student, b\ a highly qualit1ed faculty who are strongl) committed to teachmg. 

You won't get lost In the classroom at the Naval Academy. Classes are small, generally ranging 1n size from six to 27 students. Even the core courses required of all 

midshipmen are divided into these small secllons. You get ind1v1dual attention from 

your mstructor. In science and engmeering courses, the same professor who lectures in the classroom supervises experiments in the lab. This contrasts sharply with 

most universities, where scholars may address their students 1n huge lecture halls, 

but direct contact with undergraduates in labs or "discussion section," is delegated to graduate assistants. All courses at the Naval Academy are taught by !acuity 

members, not by graduate assistants. 

Faculty 

Our 600-member faculty 1s an integrated group of officers and civilians in nearly 

equal numbers. This philosophy is unique among service academies and dates from 

the earliest days of the Naval School when three civilian teachers joined four �avy 

officers in the first facult). Ofiicers rotate to the academy for assignment,, bringing 

fresh ideas and experiences from operational urnts and staffs of the Navy and Marine Corps. They also can explain how studies at the academy are applied in the 

fleet and the field. On top of their proiess1onal training and experience, all military 

faculty members have master's degrees or doctorates. The academy's civilian faculty 

members give contmu1ty to the educational program and form a core of professional scholarship and teaching experience. Nearly all oi these civilians have doctoral degrees, and many of them are recognized as leading scholars in their t1elds. 

Working together closely, these military and civilian faculty members form one 

of the strongest and most dedicated teaching faculties of any college or university 

in the Urnted States. Although many of them are involved 1n scholarly research 

and writing, their fim priori!) always is reaching. 

Academic Counseling 

You receive as much help as you need in planrnng your curriculum. Plebes receive 

20 hours 01 group and individual academic counseling In their l1rst few weeks at 

the academy and then are assigned temporal') academic advisors. When vou select 

your maior, you are assigned a permanent faculty advisor from the academic department of that ma1or. Your professors and compan) officer also can help you consider curriculum options relative to your talents, interests and career goals In the 

Navy or Marine Corps 

Core Curriculum 

In tour years at the Naval Academ), you arc required to take certam core courses 

to make sure you are well prepared for the ma1or career-path option, available to 

Navy and Marine Corps officers. Core requirements also prepare you for advanced 

professional 1ra1nmg and pos1-gracluate education, which are expected of nearly 

all n,wal officer,. Through required courses In the human111es, engineering, social 

science,, natural sciencC's, professional military subjects and physical education, 

the Naval Academy gives you a balanced education to open prilctically any door 

01 opportunity in the future. 

During plebe or freshman year, all courses are required These form the loundation for the more advanc.ed courses chosen by upperclass m1dsh1pmen. Some core 

requirements Ill the upperclass years have alternate courses trom which to choose, 

depending on your ac,1dem1c background, ab1l111es and maior. 

The t) p1cal academic schedule tor plebes includes six academic courses In each 

ol two semesters:

Midshipman Firs! Class Kenneth Frack, a mathemalics major, plans to be a Navy 

surface warfare officer after graduation and commissioning. A nalive of Portland, 

OR, Frack could have attended any of a number of civilian colleges He chose 

the Naval Academy, and hasn't regretted his decision. 

"The quality of the education you get here Is excellent. As a math maJor at a civilian 

college, I probably would not have had to take courses like engineering. But it's 

required at the Naval Academy as part of the core curriculum, along with courses 

in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. I think it's a good idea for 

everyone to take those courses because they give you a solid educational base and 

the background needed to be a professional naval officer 

"When I look back over the wide variety of courses I've had here, I realize how 

well the academy's program prepares you for Navy life in every way. There are 

some aspects of life at the Naval Academy-not only the courses you have to take, 

but regulations, policies, military requirements and physical standards-that civilian 

colleges don't need because they're not preparing you to go into the kind of highpressure, responsible job you'll go into as a naval officer 

"It's a tougher education than most colleges, I think, but I'm glad I've done it. I 

th111k it's developed me a lot more than any other college could have."

Advanced Placement 

More than half of those entering the Naval Academy validate one or more cour�es 

based on previous college-level achievement. Each oi the academy's academic 

departments sets its own validation standards and considers one or more of the 

following. 

•Transcripts

•Department validation tests, adm1n1stered al the Naval Academy

•College Entrance Exam111at1on Board (CEEB) Achievement and Advanced Placement tests 

If you validate a basic course, you can enroll 111 a sequential course In the same 

sub1ec1, take care of another curriculum requirement or carrv a lighter academJC 
load. In any case, you must take a minimum ot 15 credit hours each semester and 

spend a total of tour years 1n residence at the Naval Atademy to complete professional cour,es and training. 

M1dsh1pmen who take advantage of advanced placement in their early years may 

pursue independent research, honors programs or ma,ter's degree ,tudies in their 

fourth year at the academy, ii they quality for admission to these special program,. 

Majors Program 

Near the end of plebe year, you choose a maJor course of study with the aid and

Midshipman First Class Jennifer Culbertson iirst got interested in engineering and 

ship design as a 10-year-old when her father took her to see the battleship USS 

North Carolina. Now a naval architecture major and one of a select group of midshipmen chosen to be a Trident Scholar, the 21-year-old native of King George, 

VA, is working on a research project that involves computer-aided optimization 

of ship structural design. 

"I looked at a lot of other engineering colleges, but I decided on the Naval Academy because 11 has the best facililles to study naval architecture in the United States. 

I knew I would get a good education here, but I knew I'd also get the best preparation possible to be a professional naval officer. That was really what made me decide against the other engineering schools. I didn't want to be iust a desk-job 

engineer crunching numbers. I wanted to do something operattonal and, as a naval 

officer, I'll gel that opportunity. 

"The most rewarding aspect of being part of the Trident Scholar program here at 

the Naval Academy is the chance to use the excellent research facilities and to develop the one-on-one relationship I have with the faculty and staff. Being a part 

of this program really adds to the academic experience here. As a Trident Scholar, 

you are part of a very intensive research program that is relevant to the fleet. You 

are actually thinking through problems and sitting down and 111tensively discuss111g them with the professors. It's a great opportunity, and I know my experience 

in this program will be useful later in my career when I go on to graduate-level 

research projects." 

Special Academic Opportunities 

Outstanding students at the Naval Academy have many opportunIt1es to challenge 

and advance themselves through several special programs. 

Trident Scholars 

Top m1dsh1pmen scholars can spend their senior year conduct111g independent 

research in an area of interest, working with a faculty advisor VI ho is an expert 111 

the field. Trident Scholars carry a reduced formal course load to give them time 

for in-depth research and preparation of a thesis. Recent T rid en I Scholar proJecls 

range from research on "Failure Modes 111 Composite Materials" to "The Romantics and Their Shakespeare." 

Honors Program 

Midshipmen with excellent academic and leadership performance can apply for 

honors programs offered in history, English, political science and economics. Honors 

students complete a thesis or research proiect, and orally defend it before a panel 

of faculty members. Successful participants graduate wtth honors. 

Voluntary Graduate Education Program (VGEP) 

Midshipmen who have completed academy course requirements earl) can beg111 

work toward master's degrees at nearby civilian universtt1es such as Georgetown, 

johns Hopktn, and University of Mar) land. Up to 20 midshipmen can participate 

annually, starting graduate work during first-class (senior) year and complettng their 

master's degree programs wtthtn seven months after graduation lrom the Naval 

Academy. Fields of study are selected from Navy-approved graduate education programs leading to Navy subspecialty qualification. 

Facilities 

From modern l,1boratones and computers to 111door Olympic pool� ,inn phy,1,al 

educ,llion center,, we have outstanding iac1ltt1es and equipment 111 every ph,1,e

Computers 

Computers play an important role throughout the Naval Academy'< curriculum. 

Our modern computing hardware and soitware make the learning process easier. 

Also, with background and experience in computers acquired at the academy, m1dsh1pmen are bet1er prepared for the high-tech naval systems they will manage later 

in the Navy and Marine Corps. 

The academy's computer facilities include: 

•Time-shared multi-computer ,y,tems with 1,500 terminals and microcomputers 

•Extensive library of computer programs available for use by all midshipmen

•Computer languages including BASIC,PUI, FORTRAN, PASCAL, COBAL, APL

•NAVTAG or Navy Tactical War Gaming for classroom tactical instruction

•Computer-aided hull design in naval architecture laboratories

•Interactive video for training in foreign languages

All new midshipmen are issued personal, desk-top computers before starting their 

first semester of academics. After an introductory course, the personal computers 

are used for a variety of courses and purposes over the four-year program. Paid 

for through deductions from midshipmen pay, the computer then is yours to take 

with you when you graduate and head for your first assignment as a naval officer. 

Soon, personal computer, 1n midshipmen rooms will be linked to the Naval Academy data network and, through the network, to other computers and data bases at 

the academy, and to outside educational and commercial information sources. 

Nimitz Library 

Built in 1973, our librarv offers more than 560,000 volumes, with a special empha<1, on naval science and history. Comiortable reading and study areas can accommodate 1,500 students at once. The library also contains seminar and 

group-study rooms, typing and calculating rooms, audio and video carrels and a 

computer terminal room Through Nimitz Library, midshipmen have access to other 

libraries in the Washington and Baltimore areas.

Summer Courses and Training 

Plebe Summer 

This starts on Induction Day early in July. Areas of empha51s include military indoctrination, physical education, basic seamanship and sailing, small arms training, first aid and introduction to personal computers. See page 37 tor more on 

Plebe Summer. 

Third-Class Summer 

In the summer between your plebe and third-class years, you and your classmates 

report to Navy ships and submarines around the world for "Youngster Cruise." 

You become part of the crew, taking part in gunnery exercises and drills, standing 

watches underv.ay and going on liberty ashore when the ship puts into port. 

This experience gives you first-hand knowledge oi the day-to-day routine of a NaV), 

ship al sea. You also learn to appreciate the talents, responsibilities and perspecuves of the enlisted men and women you'll command later as an officer. 

Second Class Summer 

During the summer before your second-class year, you are introduced to every major 

branch of the Navy and Marine Corps. Many m1dsh1pmen consider second-class 

summer the most helpful experience in making decisions about what service and 

branch to enter after graduation. They also say it's the most fun ot the professional 

training experiences. 

In one action-packed summer, you fly a Navy aircraft, go on patrol with the Marines, dive in a nuclear-powered submarine and embark in a Navy surface warship 

at Navy and Marine bases in Florida, Virginia and the Bahamas. You also spend 

four weeks in Annapolis stud) 1ng public speaking, the law 01 armed conflict and 

the strategy, tactics and naval iorces of the U.S. and the Soviet Union. Computer 

war-gaming introduces you to the complex1t1es of tactical planning and the capabil1t1es ot the U.S. and Soviet navies. Finally, a YP training cruise down the 

Chesapeake Bay teaches you tactical operations and communications ailoat 

First-Class Summer 

In the final summer, you get the chance to put your leadership skills to the test, 

both in the fleet and at the academy. You 10111 a Navy or Marine Corp, operational 

unit for a summer cruise, but this time your duties are those of a junior officer. 

Depending on your career interests and qual1ficat1ons, you can choose a ,urtace 

warship, submarine, aircraft carrier, land-based maritime a1rcralt patrol squadron 

or a Marine combat unit. 

First-class midshipmen also direct Plebe Summer indoctrination and training 01 the 

newly arrived class at the Naval Academy. Other "firsties" help train ne\\ arri\'als 

at the Naval Academy Preparatory School. 

Special Summer Training Opportunities 

Some midshipmen can select special summer training programs. Among these optional programs are el\tencled cruises in acaclem) YPs along the Atlantic coast and 

into the Great Lakes. Midshipmen also can choose to take one summer cruise in 

a Naval Academy ocean sail training craft, sailing to the Caribbean. Ne" England 

waters or Europe. Both of these opuons give you intensi\e e,perience in seamanship, navigation, teamwork and leadership at sea. 

There also are opportunities for qualii1ed midshipmen to go on an international 

e'\Change cruise with an allied navy. And many midshipmen choose to give up 

some of their summer leave and take advantage of internships il\'ailable with the 

Department of Defense, State Department, Atomic Energy Commission and other 

organizauons. Other midshipmen elect to take combat parachute or sur\ 1\al training in the summer months. 
'vtidshipman Firsl Class Sceven 5,sne), a 22-year-old from Irving, TX, Joined che 

a,rcratl earner USS Amer,ca dur,ng his /,rs[-c/ass rnmmer cruise in che Mediterranean. The experience reinforced his determination to be a Nav1 pilot He also en101·ed vmrs to Sic,lr and southern Italy. 

"My dad was an aviator and, for as long as I can remember, I always wanted to 

fly. I spent a lot of my free time flying all kinds oi planes in Texas. 

"I was really happy lo be assigned lo the earner and see first-hand what it's like 

to be a naval aviator. I was able to spend a lot of time with the carrier air wing's 

squadrons-up on the landing signal officers' platform and with the catapult and 

arresting gear officers. It was really an exciting environment to be in, and very 

hectic-the operations never stop-they go on around the clock, 24 hours a day. 

"Being a part of the daily activ1t1es on the earner was exciting but, without a doubt, 

the best part of the cruise for me was flying the Jets. I've heard people compare 

flying jets to a lot of things but, for me, there's simply no comparison to anything 

I've ever done before. It is absolutely the most exciting thing you can do. 

"The one ImpressIon that I really came away with, besides Just the excitement of 

being able to fly, was an understanding of how dedicated these people on the earner are-how hard they work and how professional they are. It's a great environment. one that brings out the best in you. As far as I'm concerned, I've found my 

niche In the Navy, and I'm going to be the best naval aviator around." 

In add1l1on to these training programs, the academy oiters three sessions oi summer school. Midshipmen may enroll in concentrated versions ot regular classes 

to make up for previous un,atistactory pertormance or to get ahead in curricular 

requirements. 

Grading 

Grades have extra importance al the 1'aval Academy They affect your st,11us and 

privileges as a m1dsh1pman. As the ma1or determinant ol class rank, they also determine your priority in service selection and sen1ori11 upon graduation and comm1ss1oning. 

We use a letter grading system with these value�. called Qualtty Point Equivalents, 

or QPE 

(hcellencel A - .J.0 

B - 3.0 

C 2.0 

D 1 0 

(Failing) F - 0.0 

Grades are averaged using a weighted semester hour system called the Quality 

Po1nI Rating or QPR. Your QPR Is t1gured by multiplying the QPE received in each 

course by the semester hours of credit for the course. That total rs d1,1ded by the 

total number ot hour, completed in the semester. You earn semester QPRs and 

a cumulative QPR (CQPR) based on all of your grades. 

/\l1dsh1pmen must maintain a cumulative QPR oi 2.0 or above, or they risk academic prob,1tion or dismis,al A, required by law, the ac.ademy's Academic Board 

e:-.amInes the records ol all academ1Cally deficient midshipmen. Midshipmen subIect to academic di,charge are those who tail two or more courses; have a semester 

QPR below 1.5 rail to rPmove academic prob.it,on; are two or more courses behind in the matrix of the assigned maior; do not fulfill a requirement previously 

assigned by the -\cademic Board, or do not complete all graduation requirements 

b� the end ot the tIrst-c lass year.

Adm. William J. Crowe, Jr., a 1946 graduate of the Naval Academy, was appointed Cha,rman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff by President Ronald Reagan in 1985. He 

,s the senior military advisor to the President, the Secretary of Defense and the 

Na1iona/ Security Council. He had rhe following words of advice and encouragement for members of 1he Class of 1986 at their graduauon: 

"In my experience, the greatest joy a human being can know is the joy we celebrate 

today: accomplishment-the joy of completing a job well done. This JOY can be 

boundless when we make full use of our minds, our talents, our time. But, there 

are no guarantees with either your diploma or your commission. They may widen 

your opportunities but future achievement, results and satisfaction depend on what 

you have yet to do. 

"At times the path ahead of you will be difficult, boring, discouraging and certainly not well marked. But, if you remain fully engaged and take each step as well 

as you can and keep on walking, you will ultimately reach high ground. In this 

regard, you enjoy an advantage you must never overlook. As graduates of the U.S. 

Naval Academy, you are part of a long and impressive tradition that you can call 

on in 1,mes of strife and peril. You are steeped in the history and the standards 

of the world's foremost Navy and Marine Corps team. You inherit a code of perseverance and victory second to none. I can testify that there will be times when 

you will personally draw on the Navy's traditions for strength and that you will, 

in turn, find them genuinely sustaining." 
Delta Sigma Iota Epsilon-National honorary profe,s1onal management fraternity 

affiliated with the Academy of i\\anagement. Midshipmen majoring in applied 

science who have completed 30 semester hours with at least a B average are eligible for membership in the local chapter.

Awards 

Outstanding midshipmen are recognized publicly during Comm1ss1oning Week. 

A number of organizalions and individuals sponsor more than 80 prizes and awards 

honoring midshipmen for excellence in academics, professional s1Udies, leadership, athletics, sailing, debate and public speaking. 

Advanced Education 

Postgraduate education is encouraged for all naval officers. In fact, it's practically 

a requirement in today's Navy and Manne Corps, which operate very soph1slicaled systems in a complex world. 

Nearly all graduates go to advanced professional training en route to their first dury 

assignments. New Marine officers go to the Basic School at Quantico, VA. Navy 

ensigns go to surface warfare officer school, nuclear power school, flight training 

or other schools, depending on their chosen specialty and the nature of their first 

assignment. Professional training then continues throughout your career. 

There also are 5everal ways for Naval Academy graduates to earn advanced academic degrees, besides the Voluntary Graduate Education Program (VGEP) discussed 

on page 48. Most officers are automatically considered for graduate school as 

they complete their first duty assignment. If selected, they can enter master's 

degree programs al one of many civilian universities or at the Naval Postgraduate 

School in Monterey, CA. 

Midshipmen w11h outstanding academic records can compete for a number of 

scholarships for postgraduate school right after graduation from the Naval Academy or after an initial operational assignment. There's also a program for up lo 15 

graduates a year who want to combine careers in medicine and the Navy. To prepare for this program, midshipmen usually maior in chemistry and then enter civilian 

or armed forces medical school soon after graduation and commissioning. 

Among the scholarship programs available are these: 

Navy Burke Scholarship Ounior Line Officer Advanced Educational Program)-Open 

10 10 qualified graduates in each class for study toward a master's degree in science 

or engineering. These studies, usually at the Naval Postgraduate School, begin after one operational tour of two to four years. 

Manne Corps Burke Scholarship-Open lo 10 graduates from each class who enter 

the Marine Corps. Graduate study begins approximately two years after commissioning. Selectees may choose their field of study from an extensive list of disciplines. 

The Captain Marshall H Cox Fund-Supports summer travel and language study 

abroad by newly commissioned Naval Academy graduates. Programs are offered 

in Russian, Chinese, Spanish, French and German. 

William H.G. FitzGerald Scholarship-Supports two years of graduate study at Oxford University in England for one Naval Academ� graduate each year. 

Olmsted Foundation Scholarships-Established by the George and Carol Olmsted 

Foundation 111 cooperation with the Department of Defense, these scholarships support two years of graduate education in foreign universities, using the foreign languages, for Navy and Marine Corps officers. Two Naval Academy graduates who 

have served between two and seven years of active duty are eligible each year. 

Oceanography Joint Master's Degree Program-Two m1dsh1pmen from each Naval 

Academy graduating class may be selected for a graduate program in oceanography at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology/Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. This 27-month program leads to a Master oi Science degree in 

Oceanograph) and a Navr warfare specialt)- designation in oceanograph). 

Civilian University Scholarships and Fellowships-Naval Academ) graduates qualif) 

for a number of other scholarships and fellowships awarded for study at civilian 

colleges and universities. These graduate studies can be pursued in various fields 

and in �everal countries while graduates receive pay as comnms1oned Nav} and 

Manne Corps officers. Up to 10 members oi each class can begin immediate post-

M1dsh1pman Firsl Class Mike Ray of Boring, OR, graduated from Sam Barlow High 

School in 1981 and enlisted in the Navy six months later. At Nuclear Power School 

in Orlando, FL, he immediately impressed h,s instructors by excelling in physics 

and math. The three-lime high school football letterman also showed his talent 

on the foot/Jail field in small-league play. With the encouragement of officers at 

Nuclear Power School and a nomination from his congressman, Ray was appointed ro the Naval Academy. A member of 19th Company, the 23-year-old aerospace 

engineering ma1or now ranks in the top 10 percent of his class. He also commanded 

a platoon of new midshipmen during Plebe Summer and earned three varsity letlers 1n football. Though originally a walk-on at lryouts, he started in every Navy 

game in h,s senior year. 

"I have always been interested in aircraft and spacecraft, and I always wanted to 

fly. What is great about the program here is you don't just learn how to fly-you 

learn everything about how aircraft work and why they fly. 

"You don't have to be in aerospace engineering to fly, but I knew it would be a 

bonus 1f I knew how aircraft worked. Without a doubt, going through the cumculum here will definitely give me an edge. The curriculum at the academy is accredited and well respected throughout the country. 

"In the 'aero' major, I have enjoyed every professor I've had. They are very dedicated. They make sure you learn-that you think through problems and apply your 

knowledge to logically solve them. 

"My goal when I came here was to try to get above a 3.0, and I was able to do 

that. Slowly I started moving up in my class ranking. Then I wanted to get in the 

top 100 in 1he class and graduate with honors. Since the fall semester, I moved 

up into the lop 100. 

"I just look at my objectives and say 'OK, I have to study hard-I can't mess around.' 

You have to channel your energy into those goals. That's what I've done and it's 

worked out well."

Academ\', served as a /ieulenanr in the Army Ordnance Corps after rece1v1ng his 

bachelor's and master's degrees tram 1he Un1l'ers11y of Virginia. He a/so earned 

h1\ doctora1e from rhe Un,vers,ty of Virginia. He ,, an assoc1a1e tel/ow of the Amencan lnslilule oi Aeronauttcs and Asrronaulics, and a member of 1he American Soc,ety of ,\lechan,cal Engineers. At the academ1, he briefs members ot che plebe 

class on engineering majors and serves as (acuity advisor w upperclassmen. 

C,1/er/a,n sees as parl of his job. helping his swdenr, make the trans,t,on irom 

m1d\hipman to officer. 

"1-.\y studenb have already put in two or three years at the academy and they're 

anxious to apply what they've learned. Others are ready to push the cruise button. 

I have to make them all realize that there's still more work to do. They've got to 

learn to solve problems for themselves-from the analysis and modeling stages to 

the final solution. 

"They all have the ab1!,r11 to complete the technical ma1ors. They must abo have 

the interest and commitment. They have to be willing to put in the effort to complete the maJor when the going gets tough. That's the kind of student we were looking for when I served two years on the academy's Admissions Board-the student 

who 1s not afraid of hard work and new challenges. 

"Over the years, we have introduced new challenges ior midshipmen with undergraduate courses in incompressible tluid dynamics and compressible flow. The latter course was a special topics elective I developed with another professor. That's 

how we introduce new technology in the classroom. We get new professors with 

new areas of expertise or established professors "'ho have entered new fields of 

research or have developed new areas of interest. They offer special topics courses 

that eventually become accepted parts of the curriculum. 

"We're constantly reevaluating and improving our curricL1lum and courses to insure that the midshipmen get the best possible education."

Physics Major 

The ma1or program in Physics presents fundamental physical concept< and principles tn such a "ay 

as to emphasize !heir general usetulness. and lays a strong foundation for further work in a broad range 

01 1echnical fields. Some of the topics treated in the �equence or courses are rhe origin. propagation 

and recepuon of waves 01 all kinds; rield concepts; theory of relauvity; b,rnc theory or quantum mechanics; 

and statisucal mechanics. All are studied with the obJect ol developing an open-minded and creauve 

approach to the phy"cal world-an approach increasingly important to those who will be leaders in 

rhe modern Navy A solid background ,n physics achieved at the academy will facrl11a1e subsequent 

specialization in any technical area A Bachelor or Science degree is awarded

'vf1dsh1pman �econd Class Owen M Travis came w 1he Naval Academv from !he 

deserr counuy of Phoenix, AZ. The 19-year-old hiswry ma1or lhinks his liberal arts 

studies provide a neces.1ary perspecuve for the efiective decision making required 

of a n,wal otlicer. 

"The Navy 1s a technical organization It requires people who are intelligent, who 

can solve problems and deal with machinery and technical concepts. But it also 

demands people who are well-rounded. As I study history more and more-various 

individuals and what they did in their lives-it's an inspiration to me. A knowledge 

of hi1tory gives me a better outlook on people, which I think will be a great advantage as a career naval officer 

"The people in the history department really care about you as an individual. They 

realize the importance of providing a strong academic background 1n history, not 

only to history maiors, but also to the students 1n technical tields \\ ho may take 

only one or two history courses. 

"As a m1dsh1pman, I've learned to be responsible for others On summer cru11es 

I've been put in a position of responsibility involving not onlv people, but equipment which cost the Navy millions ot dollars. They trust me in that situation. That's 

really 1omething for a person my age, a junior in college. The opportunities l\e 

had her(' both in education and in interacting with people, are Just incredible And 

the training I'm getting is preparing me \\ell for the challenges ot the future."

Midshipman f,rst Class Doug Wocjik always has been active 1n sports. In high 

school, he 1erved as captain of the basket/)all, football and baseball teams and, 

at the Naval Academy Preparatory School, he was captain oi the basketball team. 

Since he came to the Naval Academy, Wo1cik has concentrated on one sport 

varsity /)a1ketball. As a senior, the 22-year-old Wheeling, WV. native plal'ed as 

point guard and captain of Navy's nauonally ranked basketball team 

"I think the sports programs here at the Naval Academy are great-very competIIive. You get a chance 10 play against some of the better schools in the country 

in a wide variety of sports. But you keep sports in perspective With us, academio 

are number one. Here at the academy you get the best oi both worlds-playing 

good competI11on .it the top level, plus getting a great education. 

"There are definitely better athletes at other schools. Other schools JUSI get the better 

athletes. But the athletes here are just as competitive Here, we play a sport because we want to play It more than anything ebe. We really have to make an extra 

effort to play because our lime is so limited. and Just keeping up with academics 

and all the other requirements Is a challenge. A lot of athletes at other schools don't 

have to worry so much about other commitments. They know they can go pro and 

they bani,; on that. Sport, is the only thing they have going for them. Here, we are 

doing It because we like It. V\'e want to compete, and we make a special commitment oi time and discipline to that sport. 

"I think It's that will to plav and win, plus being out there for the right reasonbecause we want to be out there that gives us an extra edge." 
An equally exciting intramural sports program 1s organized by the Naval Academy 

for other midshipmen student-athletes. Compet1t1on at the intramural level is spirited 

and sometimes intense, generally at the junior college level 1n compet1tIveness.

Athletic Facilities 

A look around the academy gives you an idea of the importance we attach to athletics and physical conditioning. The facilities for intercollegiate and intramural 

sports, physical education and personal fitness are unsurpassed and not reserved 

for just a few athletes. All midshipmen have access to these facilities, for team sports 

or individual workouts: 

•The 30,000-seat Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium

•Lejeune Hall, built in 1982, containing an Olympic-sized pool with seating for

1,000; a diving platform and tank; 600-seat wrestling arena and an array of personal conditioning areas. 

•A modern 400-meter synthetic-surfaced outdoor track.

•Halsey Field House, surfaced throughout with Tartan, including a 220-yard track.

•Synthetic-surfaced field for all-weather practice of football, lacrosse and soccer.

•Indoor ice rink for hockey and recreational skating.

•5,000-seat baseball field.

Extracurricular Activities 

Even with a midshipman's demanding academic and athletic schedule, you will 

have time for extracurricular activities (ECAs). We have more than 70 which give 

midshipmen a chance to share recreational, professional and athletic interests. Most 

of the ECAs are run by midshipmen.

Midshipman Second Class Curlis Wold joined the Naval Academy's drama group, 

the Masqueraders, during his plebe year. The 20-year-old English ma1or mos! recently performed in a Spanish classic, "Life is a Dream," one of the group's two 

productrons last year. Wold, who also is active in the Glee Club and Chapel Cho,r, 

thinks extracurricular activities (ECAs) at the academy offer something for everyone. 

"I was involved in drama in high school in England and did quite a few productions, so naturally when I came here I was interested in the Masqueraders. I got 

a part in 'Alciestiad' my first year and, since then, Masqueraders has been my favorite 

ECA. I like it because it gives you a break from the academics and the serious military training. It gives you a chance to be creative, and I find that really relaxing. 

Since I've been in the Masqueraders, we've done all kinds of plays-musicals, dramas, comedies. I've played every age from 20 to 70. Last year we did 'The Birds,' 

so I put on fun fur and played a cardinal. 

"The Masqueraders are really a great group of people. When you are working 

together that closely in a play, from the first readings to closing night, the friendships don't Iust stay in the theater. At closing night cast parties, you realize how 

much you have gotten to know these people and how close you are. 

"I've found that all the ECAs are fun-a great way to make friends and meet people 

with common interests. It's hard to find an interest that isn't covered by an existing 

group. But 1f it isn't, you can always find some other people with the same interest, 

get together, and form an official ECA or maybe a subgroup of another one. No 

maner what, there's always something to do. With all the ECAs around the academy, I've never had a problem keeping busy. You actually have to pick and choose 

which ECA you want to focus your time on. There's plenty to choose from here."

Career Opportunities 

After Graduation 

Graduation trom the Naval Academ\' bring, ne,, opportunities tor leader.;hip, learning, protes,1onal advancement, travel and excitement. From your ,erv 11r,I assignment as an officer in the naval service, you will have more responsibility and 

challenge on the 10b than almost any civilian just out oi college. Also, naval ot11cers 

have key roles in implementing the nation's Maritime Strategy, a forward-ba,ed 

and multi-,ervice strategy designed to deter aggre,sion, support allie, and protect 

U S. interest, overseas. 

Your live-year service commitment begins at graduation, ,-.hen you are commIs­

,ioned as an ensign in the Navy or a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps. All 

physically qualitied graduate, are commissioned into the unrestricted line 01 the 

Navy or Manne Corps. Midshipmen who graduate but are physically ineligible 10 

serve in the unrew1c1ed line are commissioned in a restricted line specialty such 

as intelligence supply corps or ci, ii engineer corps. 

Service Selection 

The career options available 10 Naval Academy graduate, are the broade,t ottered 

by any of the nation's ,er, ice academies. ) ou can: 

•,pec1alize in surface warfare, with assignmenb in ship, rangtng from minesweeper, and hydrofoil patrol gunboats 10 guided mi,,ile cruisers and balllP,hips. 

•enter the submarine ,ef\ice, ,, 1th duty in nuclear-powered attack and ballistic

missile ,ubmarine,. 

•fly a variety oi aircraft irom helicopter, and ,hare-based patrol plane, to ,uper­

,onic, aircraft carrier-ba,ed Jet tighter,. 

•worh. with nuclear propul,ion ,ystems, powertul computer, and ,oph1,t1cated

weapons ,y,tem, in location, around the world 
•command infantry. armor, artillery or aviation units as a Marine Corps officer.

•lead the most talented and highly motivated sailors and Marines in the world,

no mat1er what career path you choose. 

You choose your Navy or Marine Corps career field at the beginning of the second 

semester of your senior year or about five months before graduation. Midshipmen 

with the highest class standing have first choice, so options and choices of assignment may be affected by class rank as well as by personal and physical qualifications. However, every attempt is made to grant you the duty and location you 

request. 

Surface Warfare 

Surface Warfare Officers serve in every type of surface ship in the Navy. When 

you select surface warfare, you have the opportunity to choose the type of ship 

and home port of your first duty assignment. Then, after graduation from the ,1Cademy, you at1end a iour-month Surface Warfare Officer School in Newport, RI, or 

Coronado, CA, before reporting to your ship. Your first lour of duty lasts about 30 

months. 

l 

103 
104 

A new ensign typically serves as a division officer, with responsibilities for leading 

12 to 50 enlisted personnel and directing a portion of the ship's equipment and 

operations. Typical positions include those of anti-submarine warfare officer, gunnery officer, communications officer and damage control officer. In addition, you 

are expected to work toward qualifications as Combat Information Center Watch 

Officer, Officer of the Deck, and Navy Surface Warfare Officer. 

Submarine Force 

Those choosing the "silent service" begin by studying Navy nuclear propulsion 

after graduation as described below. You then go to Navy Submarine School in 

New London, CT, for the 10-week Submarine Officers Basic Course. Your first tour 

of duty with an attack or fleet ballistic missile submarine lasts about 36 months. 

In a nuclear submarine, Junior officers lead divisions of 15 to 20 men. You have 

responsibilities in a vital area of operations such as engineering, weapons or communications. You also stand watches and work to qualify as Engineering Officer 

of the Watch, Diving Officer and Officer of the Deck-all steps towards earning 

the gold dolphins of a Navy Submarine Officer. 

Nuclear Propulsion 

The Navy's demanding and highly technical nuclear power training program is 

among the best in the world. Those chosen for the program usually rank high in 

their class and have a solid background in scientific and technical courses, though 

not necessarily majors in these areas. 
M1dsh1pmen who choose surface warfare can join those choosing submarines in 

pursuing a sub-specialty in nuclear propulsion systems. If you are accepted into 

the nuclear power program, you report to Nuclear Power School in Orlando, FL, 

for six months oi schooling following graduation from the academy. You then train 

for six months at one of several nuclear reactor prototype sites located throughout 

the country before reporting to your first ship. 

Nearly all of the Navy's submarines are nuclear-powered. Nuclear surface ships 

include guided missile cruisers and aircraft carriers, and nuclear-trained surface 

warfare 0H1cers alternate between these and conventionally powered 5h1ps as they 

advance in their careers. 

Navy Aviation 

Whether it's landing an F/A-18 "Hornet" on the deck of an aircraft carrier, hunting 

a Soviet submarine in the North Atlantic or maneuvering a helicopter in a rescue 

operation, Navy aviators are constantly called upon to perform under pressure. 

When you choose this career path, you can select training as a pilot or a naval 

flight officer. Pilots fly aircraft while naval flight officers serve as bombardiers, navigators, radar and electronic intercept officers and antisubmarine warfare systems 

specialists. 

105 
106 

After gradual ion from the academy, all those choosing aviation repon to Pensacola, 

FL, for basic flight !raining. Then pilot trainees move on to Meridian, MS, Corpus 

Chnsl1, TX, or Beeville, TX, depending on the type of aircraft they've chosen. Naval 

flight officers remain in Pensacola for their training. You receive your wings after 

an 18-24 month training period. You are assigned to your first squadron after a 

six- to eight-month indoctrination tour In a replacement air group. 

Besides flying, Navy aviators have significant collateral responsibilities from their 

very first duty assignment. New officers typically are charged with leading a group 

of aviation enlisted personnel and overseeing an aspect of Ihe aircraft squadron's 

operations, administration, personnel management or aircraft maintenance. 

Marine Corps 

Up to one-sixth of each graduating classmavelect to be commissioned as second 

lieutenants in the Marine Corps. After graduation from the academy, you attend 

the Basic School, a 23-week course for officers at Quantico, VA. This school gives 

all Marine officers a common background in the tactical study of land warfare Then 

you go on to advance !raining in a particular occupational specialty based on your 

qualifications and preferences. 
Marine Corp, career fields include> those in the two basic categories of ground and 

air Ground career choices include infantry, armor, artillery, logistics, engineers, 

data proc:es,ing and communications. Aviation choices include pilot, naval flight 

ottIcer, air command and control, ant1-aIr \,anare, aviation maintenance and avIatIon supply. 

In their tIrst assignments, Marine Corps second lieutenants generally are assigned 

a, platoon commander, with leadership responsibil111e, ior 20 to 25 enlisted .\,\arines. You otten have a role in a Marine air/ground tasl-. torce, with Marine light 

infantry capable ot opposing much more heavily equipped forces. Meshing of air 

and ground officers in these task forces and individual units gives officers the opportunity later to command combined unih, not Just within career spec1ah1es. 

Restricted line Specialties 

If you are not phvsically qualitied to serve in the unrestritted line but still are phys1Cillly quahtied to be an active duty otticer, you can choose trom a wide variety 

or alternatives and pursue a carc>er all the way to tlag ofticer rank. Restricted line 

and staff corp, officer, make careers in the fields of intelligence, cryptology, oceanography, geophysics, medicine, engineering, ,upply, aviation maintenance, salvage 

and rescue, and public aiia1rs. They serve aboard ship,, with aircraft squadrons and 

at shore ba,es around the world.

After Your First Tour of Duty 

By the time you complete your first tour of duty, you'll probably have a pretty good 

idea about your career goals, and the Navy and Marine Corps will give you every 

opportunity to achieve them. You will have assignments to prepare you for advancement and command of a surface ship, submarine, aircraft squadron, Manne Corps 

unit or an organization ashore. 

Naval officers alternate between tours of duty w11h shore-based units and operalional commands that deploy overseas 111 support of our nation's Maritime Strategy. You also have the opportunity for postgraduate study, advanced technical training 

in your specialty, and coursework at military service colleges in leadership, management, tactics, sIrategy, politico-military affairs and international relations. You never 

stop learning, even as your responsibilities for people, operations and policy-making 

increase

Organization 

The Naval Academy 1s organized much like a civilian college. A Board of Visitors, 

similar to a college board of trustees, makes major policy decisions. The academy's 

Superintendent, a Navy admiral, is the equivalent of a college president 1n that he 

oversees all of the school's iunctions. 

The Superintendent's principal deputies include a civilian academic dean, who oversees the academic program and the faculty, and the commandant of midshipmen, 

a senior naval officer who serves as dean of students and supervisor of all milital) 

and proiessional training. 

The Superintendent, Commandant and academic dean and academic division directors sit on the Academic Board, which sets the academy's academic standards 

The Naval Academy's 600-member faculty is composed of about equal numbers 

of civilian scholars and experienced military officers. The civilian professors give 

the academic program continuity and a foundation of scholarship and teaching experience. The officers, who rotate every two or three years, bring fresh experiences 

and ideas from operational and staff assignments in the Navy and Marine Corps. 

Board of Visitors 

The Board of Visitors meets twice each year to consider the curriculum, instruction, fiscal affairs, academic matters, physical equipment and state of morale and 

discipline. Their membership includes the chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee 

on the Armed Services or his designee; three other U.S. senators, two of whom 

are members oi the Committee on Appropriations, appointed by the Vice President; the chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Armed Services or a designee; four other U.S. representatives, two of whom are members of 

the Committee on Appropriations; six other citizens designated by the President 

of the United States. 

The President of the United States receives a written report of the Board'� tindings 

and recommendations.

When he graduated from lhe Naval Academy in 1980 with a ma;or ,n economics, 

Anthony Verducci 1oined the Marine Corps as an aircraft maintenance officer. The 

28-year-old Glen Ridge, NJ, naltve returned to Annapolis in 1985 as company officer 

for the 140 midshipmen of 191h Company. It is his iob to shape and motivate them 

for the day they ;om the Navy or Marine Corps as commissioned officers.

"I try to give everybody in my company a chance to deal with responsibility and 

make decisions, and then to carry through their decisions to fruition. Here at the 

Naval Academy, you can make a mistake and not have anybody injured by it. Most 

of the time, midshipmen make the right decision; but when they do make the wrong 

one, they'll walk away knowing how it should have been done. Once they realize 

you have faith and confidence in their abilities, they'll make more decisions-the 

dec1s1ons that the11 believe are the right ones instead of the ones that they think 

/ think are the right ones. 

"I tell midshipmen that being a good leader is not something you learn overnight. 

You never stop learning how to be a good leader, and you often have to learn from 

mistakes. I use myself as an example. Along the way I've picked up the traits of 

people I've been influenced by-whether they are Navy or Marine Corps officers. 

I've admired their uniqueness, their sense of individualism and their pride in being 

naval officers." 

"On their way to becoming officers, midshipmen will be influenced by a lot of 

people. They have to take a look at the good people, take a look at the bad people, 

and try to assemble their own model of what a leader should be. And then they 

see if they can live up to those ideals. 

"I try to give them the tools to make these judgements."

"The academy offers the ultimate educational experience-a combination of learning 

and living. Fe\-\ other schools of higher education have the same impact on a student's life as the academy. Part ot the academy's challenge is 11s multi-faceted program, which comIsts of a demanding acade>mic curriculum, required athletics and 

protess1onal training. The academic and professional sides of the program reintorce 

each other to create a tremendous potential for individual growth. 

"Our focus Is on intellectual maturity. We want the midshipmen to master the 

methods of their various d1sc1plines and to undertake research that will bring them 

up against the boundaries ot that knowledge. I believe a midshipman's education 

must go beyond vocational training and the cookbook approach to technology. 

It must focus on basic principles that the midshipmen can transfer to other fields 

of stud� and which they can use to understand today's rapidly changing technology. 

"Thus, a midshipman's education blends many disciplines. II includes a core curriculum which covers the humanities, engineering, social sciences and natural 

sciences; professional courses which provide the midshipmen with the skills they'll 

need as naval officers; and academic maJors which are fields of study chosen by 

the midshipmen to develop their interests and talents 

' The curriculum Is demanding and the standards are high, yet we graduate nearly 

80 percent of our students w1th1n the four years prescribC'd by law. Our graduates 

are the best that our nation and our academy can produce. I intend to see that we 

continue to graduate top quality officers far into the future."

War; 1n an a,r test and evaluacion squadron; on a carrier group s1aff; and at lest 

pilot school as an instructor and a pilot. He also earned a master's degree and 

a Ph.D. in aerospace engineering from the Naval Po,tgraduate School. 

"The entire aerospace engineering program here is a challenge. It is not an easy 

curriculum, but the rewards are there for those who complete it. 

"The astronautics track is offering midshipmen special challenges. We developed 

this highly technical area of study because the Navy is the biggest military user 

of space in the United States. We use satellites for ocean surveillance, communication and navigation. 

"Working with the Navy Space Command, we will participate in the planning and 

design of hardware and terminology relative to space operations. As part of this 

program, midshipmen study space flight, spacecraft control and design and the environment of space, such as radiation fields and planetary atmospheres. At the end 

of the program, they complete a preliminary design of a spacecraft. 

"The faculty here is excellent. Most of the military instructors and lecturers have 

at least master's degrees and are experienced in flyrng aircraft. Also, because of 

the new technology here-especially on the astronautics side, we have attracted 

v1s111ng professors from the Applied Physics Lab and the Goddard Space Center 

These experts add a new dimension to our own fine faculty. 

"Working with midshipmen is very rewarding. They are eager to learn as much 

as they can, and this 1s good for the Navy because we hire all of our graduates. 

These midshipmen will be capable of picking up their share of the load when they 

become officers. You have to have confidence in the people who are working for 

you. I have a great deal of confidence in these young people, and I'm happy that 

one day some ol them will be working for me."

Brigade Commander for the Naval Academy's Class of 1978, Marine Corps Captain Arthur Athens finds 1t meaningful to be a part of the institution which profoundly affected his personal and professional development. He reported lO the 

Naval Academy as an instrucwr and executive a.ss1stam ,n the Computer Sciences 

Department about three years ago following duty as executive officer of a 

Stinger/Redeye Air Defense unit in Okinawa, Japan. Besides teaching, he served 

as the academy's drill officer for two years, and as officer representative for the 

varsity lightweight crew team and for the Officers Chmuan Fellowship. Athens 

was the mi/Hary faculty member selected for the 1985-86 Clements Award, which 

honored him for contributing the most to the education of midshipmen, both inside and outside the classroom. 

"I was anxious to come back to the Naval Academy, mainly because I think midshipmen are a special kind ot people. The things !hat you teach them are going 

to stay with them ror many years. It's exciting to think that I have an opportunity 

In the classroom to interact with them, not only about computers, but hope[ully 

a little bi1 about being a pro[essional officer. 

"Over the last four or five years there's been an awakening of JUSI how critical 

computers are and the knowledge that you need to have or their capabilities and 

limitations. When these midshipmen are junior officers, they will be faced with 

a highly technical Navy and Marine Corps, and they must be ready to work within 

that kind of environment. We realize that, in order to do that, they will need a 

good computer background and hands-on experience. 

"We've redesigned the whole introductory computer course tor midshipmen. This 

past summer all of the plebes were issued computers, and we were very involved 

in setting them up. It's been an exciting time to be here-it's almost like jumping 

into a new century here at the academy. And we have many plans about to be 

implemented. 

"When the need is out there in the civilian world for any specialty, the military 

is often a microcosm of thal world. If you look at what's happening now and what's 

going to be happening in the 21st century, you're talking about a very automated 

sophisticated, logical environment. We have a great need for people with computer skills. When you step out as a junior officer and you have the knowledge 

of a computer scientist, you automatically become a star tn your unit because there 

rs so much you can do."

Lieutenant Commander Bnan Beckman joined the '\Java/ 1\caclem\' /acuity a \'ear 

and a halt ago following comple11on ot graduate stuc/1es in education, crain1ng and 

managemenc ac Old Dominion Univers11y in Norfolk, VA. As course coordinacor 

and insuuclOr or che leacler,h1p applications course, he guides second-class midshipmen through case studies and role playing in which they can apply theories 

of leadership. On the wall of his otfice hangs a plaque which reflects his viewpoint le quotes Vice Adm,ra/ William Lawrence, former Naval Academy superintendenc "Leaders/11p 1s the mo,t important rhing we do here." 

"It's our responsibility in the Leadership and Law Department to provide formalized leadership traInIng for all midshipmen. We're here lo take care of their professional development-to see 1ha1 rhey develop the skills necessary to be effective 

junior officers. 

"I think that, on the whole, Naval Academy graduates tend to be a lot more professional in their approach to their duties. I saw that fairly often out in the fleet. You 

could pretty much determine"' ho were academy graduates as opposed to those 

from ROTC or other acce,s1on programs. They seemed to be stronger In some key 

areas. I certainly hope and feel that we're perpetuating that professionalism. 

"Today's academy graduates going out In the fleet will have people working for 

them who are more sophisticated, more aware and more expert than ever in their 

chosen rields. They're going to have people under them who will really challenge 

their leadership. I think we're equipping them to meet the challenges."
