All midshipmen are subject to random drug testing through urinalysis, consistent with Navy-wide policies and procedures. Be sure to send the initial package in an air-tight container to provide storage for future mailings. Second-class midshipmen may have a car but must maintain and operate it beyond Academy grounds. No mid is allowed to maintain or operate a motorcycle within town liberty limits. There are over ninety extracurricular activities available to midshipmen.
Activities range from scuba diving to photography, rock bands to chapel choirs.
While many activities are geared to academic interests, others are just for fun. ECA's are a necessary break from the Academy routine. These activities help mids learn new talents, explore interests, and serve the community. Every leave begins after completion of the mid's last scheduled exam or military duty. Town liberty requires midshipmen to return on Saturday evening at taps and spend the night in Bancroft Hall.
