Update on return from Winter Weekend
Printer-friendly version
Email to friendWith so many of our Cadets scheduled to return to campus today, FUMA wants to provide you with an update regarding travel and class schedules.
Here’s what we know so far:
Campus facilities have remained intact throughout the storm, and classes will meet tomorrow, Tuesday, as scheduled in both the Middle and Upper schools.
Major roads in the central Virginia region appear to be adequately passable, and the James River Bus Line has indicated that the originally scheduled bus service will not be interrupted, including those scheduled for the Northern Virginia region.

If you have to travel today, we ask you to use your best judgment. While we encourage you to make every reasonable effort to return, your son’s safety, and your own, is our greatest concern.
While we understand that for some of our families, travel today will be impossible, please understand that many of our Cadets are currently on campus or travelling from points east and south. Although we anticipate the majority of the Corps being back in the barracks this evening, consideration for those unable to arrive on time will be given, based on location and circumstances.
We thank you in advance for your ongoing support and prayers.

On The Reviewing Stand
I was not a bad kid in public schools, I just had trouble focusing on school and my grades became a reflection of that. It was tough at first because you're forced to adapt to the environment which has quickly become your home. FUMA works in so many differant aspects -- it literally is too many to list. As a cadet, our time was occupied with something every hour of the day. I played an organized sport all year round, studied every night, earned rank and had leadership positions in the barracks. I essentially found who I was as an individual and became that person. Three years later I was in NC attending college.
