Ryan Jones, of Glen Allen, participated in Freshman Recruit Orientation Group (FROG) Week Aug. 12-18 at the University of North Georgia. FROG Week marks the transition of freshmen in the Corps of Cadets from civilians to cadets at UNG. The training helps cadets learn about time management, academic expectations, room standards, discipline, rappelling, road marching and simply the right and wrong way to do things. The tradition dates back to at least the 1960s.
