The Naval Academy is a fairly diverse place, but we all know the stereotypes of the motivators, cynics, and athletes. Based on my experiences, I added a few more to the list.

1. The Motivator

Can be found in the MacD or the barbershop.

2. The Cynic

Always happy to tell you about how none of this matters anyway.

3. The Traditionalist

In case you haven't heard, the Academy has gone soft.

4. The Love Chitter

Wait... since when are you in our company???

5. The Sleep-Deprived Engineer

Dark circles so intense they don't seem real.

6. The Striper who got Volun-told

They didn't ask for this, okay? And no, they don't have time to chat.

7. The Guy who studied abroad

Tbh we all forgot his name.

8. The SEAL pup

*Skips service assignment to work out*

9. The Guy who would Service-Select CMOD, if he could.

ALWAYS ON WATCH

10. The Guy who lives in Mac-D

And consumes protein powder in unhealthy amounts.

11. The Magician

Hey we need somebody to .... wait where'd he go?

12. The Varsity Athlete

You've seen them like five times since Reform. And you're roommates.

13. The Hermit

Never leaves their room. Except for formation... most days.

14. The Varsity NARP

Intramurals are not a joke, guys, we need to take ultimate frisbee very seriously if want to win the championship.

15. The Company Mom

Always makes sure everyone is doing alright... lowkey our favorite person.

16. The Frat Star

Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
