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 (if you are a member of plebe-net or parent-forum, you are already on WPP-NET) Larry D. Smith '62

Overseas cadets check in periodically with U.S. embassy officials."
