First year students, or “plebes” struggle to climb to the top of the Herndon Monument as part of the Naval Academy's annual tradition of the Herndon Climb on May, 23, 2022 in Annapolis, M.d. Every year, students work together to climb the 21-foot-tall monument, which is covered in vegetable shortening, on the Academy’s campus to attempt to replace “dixie cup” hat at the top of the monument and replace it with an upperclassman’s hat. This year’s class completed the challenge in a time of 3:36:58, the third slowest on record.
