Poll of the Week: Academy Extracurriculars

[Jo Marshall]

A student’s stay at Starfleet Academy can be a lengthy one, spanning four years of intensive training and education, combining multiple disciplines and academic achievements of phenomenal proportions. Many of those who graduate in their fields are the top the academy has to offer, including some with double majors, some cramming in as much study as they can into the brief season until they're flung off into the wide-open wilds of space. 

However, outside that realm of high academic achievement and success, like any other college and university, Starfleet Academy provides the students with the opportunity to take part in multiple extracurricular activities. Activities are structured around exercise, learning new skills, socialising with other cadets, becoming self-disciplined, and taking a break from the rigours of their chosen career. 

With that in mind, our question for this Poll of the Week is:

What extracurricular activities at Starfleet Academy did your character find love or loathing for?

Loxley avoids sports as much as possible (he has a note from his mum) but I imagine he tried his hand at acting... and found out he was absolutely terrible. But he still would have felt obligated to muddle his way through a bunch of awful productions of Shakespeare before finally putting his acting career out of its misery.

Artinus was doing as many sports as he could. Also, he started programming his strategic combat simulation holoprogram.

[+ Kizanna Reid]

Seja was into her martial arts - Jiu Jitsu

[Thalas th’Koro]

Being an Andorian, Thalas was doing all the music he could. Loving his clarinet!

[Oddas Aria]

I'm fairly certain Aria made an extra curricular out of avoiding all that stuff.
