<p>Now, I ask these questions as an outsider, so hopefully they aren’t stupid or really obvious. </p>
<p>1) How common do situations like these happen at the Academy? I know its multi-layered, but it really (to me at least) seems like it started as fun but with the right ingredients this could turn into a class power struggle. An example was that this was a “testbed” of leadership. I think that makes a lot of sense. So does that testbed go through choppy waters frequently?</p>
<p>2) Is this really a strong enough issue to truly “divide” classes. I guess what I’m asking is, is this a hot-button issue that this is more than just “something to talk about” to where people are getting strongly opinionated?</p>
<p>3) Now, this answer could really depend on where things go from here. But what does this mean for the future? Would they really crack down on spirit missions in the long run to try and prevent things like moving the F-35? Or do you think this will blow over and everything will return to where it was?</p>
