Posing for a group shot at Homecoming Hops. Even dancing in a hot wool coatee does little to ruin the good time had by Cadets at a Hop. Hop Season AVMI Hop weekend is something to behold! To the casual observer, it might seem strange to see cadets and their dates staring at their watches while the band is blasting away onstage. Furthermore, once the clock reaches 11:00, everyone clears out of Cocke Hall and goes their separate ways. But these industrious cadets are not ones to waste their precious hours of GP; and believe me, those extra hours are hard to come by and all too easy to let slip by! Even though a Hop sometimes seems like an exercise in frustration, they really are a lot of fun. So girls, if you ' re looking for a good time and a chance to show off your long dress, don ' t balk at an invitation to a VMI Hop. You won ' t regret accepting. 28 Social
