Sage advice. I was good at not getting caught (or maybe just lucky). My navy roomate, not so much...he spent his ENTIRE senior year doing restriction musters 3 times daily (6 on weekends).

And for Gods sake, don't play with drugs, theft, or cheating...if you're gonna do that, go to State U you'll save yourself a lot of heartache (and maybe a life-defining dishonorable discharge and/or prison time). If you're stupid enough to do that kind of crap in the fish-bowl of a service academy, you're not smart enough to get away with it. Seems they have to drive that point home to a bunch of kids every year.
