Academy returns focus to math, science majors (Navy Times)

<p>Nowhere did I say that group 1, 2, or 3 majors won’t have success in their field or become a better officer than others.</p>

<p>As we agree, USNA is a technical school, which means that having 25-30% of a class in a group 3 major is more than plenty. This is a lax-er than the previous 80% requirement. </p>

<p>My point isn’t to try and say group 3 majors aren’t necessary (because they are), it is just to re-emphasize what BUPERS is already doing (pushing the technical percentage number of MIDN in technical majors), I just feel it should be slightly more. Having 300-350 MIDN major in group 3 is a lot. Remember that most classes graduate with 1000.</p>

<p>If social science is that important, the someone might want to convince the administration of that.</p>
