How difficult is/was the Electrical Engineering 311 course at USNA that is now the center of the NJ Governor's race?


Haven't most midshipman who aren't engineering majors have taken Calc 1 and 2 and Calc based physics by the time they enroll in the course?

And, if the scandal in question happened in December 1992, but Mikie Sherrill, the USNA grad and NJ Gov candidate was not allowed to walk during her graduation 1.5 years later, then how as her life at the academy during that time? Would she have been shunned and not allowed to have leadership positions? Since she became a pilot and later obtained degrees from the London School of Economics and Georgetown, it didn't seem to have affected her career much. So, why the bugaboo now?
 
The EE cheating scandal was a black eye on the integrity of USNA as an institution, and is still discussed in academia. The academy took steps to deal with it. Not everyone agrees those steps were correct or adequate.

When someone runs for office, their life gets looked at under a microscope for things like this. Hardly surprising it is coming back up.

The rest really does not matter.
