  • The History of Unions in the US Class 1: Origins
    A Tour of the US Service Academies Class 3: US Naval Academy Jim Dunphy [email protected] USNA History • Traditionally, naval officers served as midshipmen aboard naval vessels • These could be as young as 10 or as old as 40 History • West Point was founded in 1802, but no naval equivalent was considered for many years thereafter. • The catalyst for the USNA was the Somers affair Somers Affair • In 1842, Philip Spencer, the son of the Secretary of War, was serving aboard the USS Somers as a Midshipman • Finding out about a possible mutiny, he notified the purser Somers Affair • The rumor went up the chain to the ship’s Captain, Alexander McKenzie • He did not take any immediate action, but put both Spencer and the crew under surveillance • It was found that Spencer was having secret meetings with the crew and his diary had Greek symbols • This was probably because he was a member of a Greek fraternity at Union College before going to sea Somers Affair • Later, a mast failed and damaged some sails, a huge problem for a ship at sea • A number of thefts led to floggings • Captain McKenzie ordered his four officers and three senior midshipmen to investigate • They concluded that Spencer and two other crew members were planning to take over the ship • The same day the report was made, all three were hung and buried at sea Somers Affair • Spencer’s father, the Secretary of War, obviously had power over this issue • While a naval court martial exonerated Captain Mackenzie, the general public remained skeptical about the idea of midshipmen at sea

  • The USNA Before Going on to Be an Astro- Naut
    UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY UNITEDSecretary of the Navy STATES George Bancroft laid NAVAL the founda- ACADEMY tion for the Naval Academy when, in 1845, he established the Naval School at Fort Severn in Annapolis. Commander Franklin Buchanan served as the first Superintendent. His fac- ulty consisted of four officers and three civilian professors. There were 50 students. Initially, the academic and professional instruction required five yearsthe first and last at Annapolis, with the intervening three at sea. In 1850, the Naval School became the United States Naval Academy. The following year, the Academy adopted its current course of instruction which includes four consecutive years at Annapolis, with at-sea training provided during the summers. The Naval Academy moved to Newport, R.I., during the Civil War. In 1865, it was re-established at Annapolis under the leadership of Vice Admiral David Dixon Porter. During these early years, the Academy was one of the few institutions of high- er learning offering a sophisticated undergraduate course in tech- nical education. The late 19th century saw immense changes in naval tech- nology with the conversion from sail-powered, wooden ships to steam-powered vessels of steel, which also resulted in rapid developments in naval weaponry and tactics. With the Spanish- American War in 1898, the United States became a world naval power, and early Naval Academy graduates like George Dewey and Alfred Thayer Mahan made significant contributions to our national heritage. The new century saw the nations undergraduate naval college grow in size and academic prowess. The Class of 1895 had pro- duced 41 graduates.

All students accepted for admission must possess, at a minimum, a baccalaureate degree or equivalent. Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. This is consistent with the existence of racial and ethnic preferences and similar to gaps which we have found elsewhere, indicating that preferences have a negative impact on graduation rates.

The town’s City Dock commercial wa- terfront is chockablock with tourists, traffic and tawdry chain stores, but the Naval Academy is a place apart: Spa- cious and beautifully landscaped, rich in history, home to an active, rigorous, storied university that dates to 1845.
