The only problem I have with the school, and 90% of students here will say the same thing, is how lame the school is becoming.  This lameness is directly related to the few sensative, crybabys who go here.  These winers absolutely DESTROY every tradition this school had by running home and telling mommy and daddy how poorly they are treated.  Mommy then goes to the parent association and explains how little Johnny was hazed because he had to do 15 pushups.  It's a military school... toughen up.  The school is so worried about being sued for a hazing incident that the place really isn't any kind of military academy anymore.  We wear the uniforms and have our own little parade every morning, but this is just for show, and it will fool any outsider.

I am NOT saying that hazing is acceptable or should be tolerated by any means.  I am simply saying that kids become tired of the regiment and will cry the word hazing to get out of punishment.  Yes, there is a demerit system in place, but I would take 100 pushups anyday over walking around for 5 hours picking up cigarette butts. 

Ten years ago, there was a feeling of pride for attending MMA because it had a certain “badassness” to it.  Any shred of that feeling that was left in me faded in the past year.  My prediction for MMA in 10 years is that the school will be regiment optional, which will make it just a regular state college.
