<p>Just the other day I heard a preppie bragging about how they get paid seven times more than freshmen at the academy and it just blew my mind. It is definitely a generalization, but I feel like many of the preppies come into the academy with a chip on their shoulder. It seems they feel that since they already put in a year, they don’t need to go through 4degree year. And I have to say, I haven’t noticed that attitude so much in priors. I’ve noticed it more in the recruited athletes. The freshmen year is meant to be humbling, but some people are just too anchored on their pedestal to step off for a while. I want to reiterate that I have no problem with preppies (I have a good friend who is a preppie), but something needs to change.</p>
