<p>I never said major was not discussed - it was not presented that he needed to have a scientific major “When my Mid had his interview with his BGO, “scientific” major was never talked about, rather his interests and what he wanted out of his education in respect to life goals.” My son went to USNA as undecided so the discussion with the BGO was about he wanted out of his education and his interests. I have no clue what the BGO may have put in the check box but I would be willing to bet in the comments he stated what my son’s interests were and what division he was not interested. </p>
<p>On the application my Mid put a first and second choice in the area for intended major. He again, in his comments, stated that he was undecided and then stated what 3 different majors he was considering - none being engineering.</p>
<p>Also food for another discussion - the majors briefing and subsequent majors open houses and “recruiting” He went to programs in all three divisions, only division 2 and 3 followed up and really tried to “snag” him - never heard back from any of the Division 1 majors. Now maybe they knew that his application said he was not interested in Engineering but have they ever heard that one can change their mind? Anyway if this is really a concern to the Academic Dean and USNA that not enough are picking Div 1 don’t you think he would make sure that those majors actively pursued students that attended their open houses?</p>

I read a post a while back stating that maybe USNA69 did not like the former Sup … I am starting to see it too… </p>

Yep and certain types “engineers” think they know more than other types of “Engineers” And of Course the old PE knows it all! Been there experienced it all! :)</p>
