<p>Rhodes Scholars announced (and Marshall and Mitchell schlolars, too.) :D</p>
<p>For those wondering about “intellectual development”, mind-expanding opportunities and evidence of its pervasiveness at USNA … </p>
<p>2 out of 31 Rhodes Scholars! Had 5 in 2 seasons a few years past. There areas of study? History, Chinese, Arabic, economics, English, philosophy, mathematics, and check out what they will pursue in graduate studies. Nary a single engineer here. And you begin to get a glimpse of why USNA is rightly or otherwise considered one of the top “liberal arts” institutions in the world. Because it is. </p>

<p>P.S. While there are a handful of heavily represented Ivies and like-Ivies in this very tiny group, not nearly so many as you’d think. And note the number of public and relatively non-selective institutions represented. It’s a personal thing. See post #10 ;)</p>
