Does georgetown play navy in basketball? I think someone mentioned something about that.



Yes- and usually win too! :(

but the good news is that georgetown ALWAYS sends bus-loads of students down to the game if it is at Annapolis so might want to attend if the schedule has it at Navy this year!

Flip flops on the yard are fine- so are shorts. Again, dress neat, and I would agree to keep it on the conservative side.

Do send your caramel brownies…just seal them in a zip lock bag and wrap with some paper towels or tissue paper… the flat rate boxes from the post office are pretty strong and work well. Just remember that during plebe summer, cadre (upperclass summer trainers) MIGHT check what’s being delivered in the box (brownies are ok) and MAY have your plebe “pass them around” to his company mates. This changes from company to company- so might, and might not, apply. But just in case that is the practice in his company, make sure to “pack extra” and don’t put anything in the box that might get your plebe in trouble (ie: watch, telephone, any music-playing device, etc)…
