<p>Recognize 2012</p>

<p>These are two posts from last year about the class of 2011…sound familiar?</p>

<p>“To be honest these kids don’t really deserve to be recognized. They are all a bunch of cocky kids that really have an attitude problem.”</p>

<p>“They just don’t do things the way they are supposed to. They aren’t respectful to upper classmen, they don’t square, they don’t greet. They just do not deserve to be recognized at all, right now or in the very near future. I KNOW PEOPLE BASH ON THE PLEBES EVERY YEAR, but I think most people here feel they are a bunch of kids with attitude problems. Granted when I went out to sea I didn’t expect to come back to the same locked on kids I had in indoc, but I sure didn’t expect this much of a slip.”(Originally posted in 2008 by GGSPIN)</p>

<p>(wow! It’s like Yogi Berra said, (“It’s like deja vu all over again”.)
