Welcome West Point Parents! WPP-NET stands for "West Point Parents Net". This is the net used by our parent moderators to pass "hard news" information to all parents who have an e-mail address in the west-point.org system. WPP-NET is a closed net and the only person who can post messages to this net is the wpp-net moderator. This net operates on a "push" system. We push the information out to you unsolicited as we learn of news from West Point. The WPP-NET website is intended to be the portal for all West Point parents (as your Internet browser home page if you wish), where you can find everything you need in one easy location. If you don't find something you need, be sure to let me know, and our Webmaster will include it if at all possible. CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE TO WPP-NET

NY jury: West Point Didn't Violate Free Speech |

(AP) – Jul 22, 2009 WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — West Point officials who ordered anti-war demonstrators out of an Army-Navy basketball game did not violate their First Amendment rights, a federal jury decided Wednesday. The jury found that the protesters' message — they wore T-shirts spelling out "U.S. out of Iraq" — was not the main reason for their expulsion. The eight protesters, admittedly looking for attention, stood in the top row of the bleachers to display their message as the national anthem was played before a game in 2004. Building manager John Spisso ordered them to cover up the shirts or leave, and when they refused, they were escorted out by military police, held for three hours and charged with disorderly conduct.
