LETTERMAN JACKETS

Well! Cameron just reminded me I actually had some thoughts on how to determine if your character is a lettered player. Letterman jackets have: Their letter (EH, AC, CT, RF), their house symbol, the school crest, their name & the position they play (on the back), and the player's year of graduation. Jackets come in house colors, and are purchased by students. They run at around 300 dragots a piece.

To be a lettered player, your character must meet the following qualifications:
  • Maintain a C average.

  • Be on a Quidditch team.

  • Participate in at least half of all games played that year.
They're awarded their letter upon meeting these requirements for the first time. That means reserves will not be lettered and players new to the team this year received their letter just recently.

Additional accomplishments may also gain them patches to add to their jacket. Examples would be:
  • Being a captain.

  • Being first string on the Gooseberry team.

  • Being on a team that previously won the cup while they were a member.

  • Excellence as awarded by Mr. Thorn.

  • Maintaining a 4.0 GPA.

  • Small medallions for clubs they've actively participated in for at least one year.

  • Being a prefect or Head Boy/Girl.
If you have any questions about whether or not your character qualifies, feel free to ask!

in 1988 they changed the name from future farmers of america to the national ffa organization and made some changes to their creed because they felt that farming was too narrow of a scope
