Hey, I'm attempting to build a Bretonnian army, and while they aren't essential, I can't help but love mounted Yeomen. Sadly, they're very rare models. Does anyone have suggestions as to what I could use as proxies?

‘Black’ folks be so fragile they need ‘white’ people to chaperone them at concerts.
oberlinreview: “.. Black students and students of color are feeling uncomfortable at concerts because of their white peers. College third-year Haley Sablay talked about her experience at her first Solarity concert over the summer semester.”
“it’s hurtful when white students do not hold themselves accountable for their actions in such a space. Sablay said that, as a woman of color herself, she is hypervigilant and feared for her friends’ safety as well.”
“There are so many spaces on this campus that people of color don’t feel comfortable [in], and when you take into account other things going on that affect people of color the most, like COVID-19, it adds a lot of anxiety to these situations.”
“The requirements to attend Solarity last summer included watching a 30-minute bystander training video and completing a form with basic questions about drug use and consent.”
“We work to acknowledge power dynamics between attendants, attendees, and performers and remind all Solarity attendees to remember the spaces and identities they hold and how their identities interact with others around them”
“Sablay and I are both officers for the Asian Diaspora Coalition, and at the end of the meeting, one of our fellow officers talked about an experience at Coverband Showcase where white students slowly pushed her from the first row all the way to the fifth row.”
“Learn about who the concerts and events on campus are intended for.”
“If you’re a white student at a concert and you observe non-white students visibly uncomfortable or being pushed to the back, use your voice and say something.”
Just got in and I'm eager to hear what the people I'm going to be living next to for possibly four years are interested in. I don't just mean what degree you want to get, but everything that drew you to the school.
Edit: It's from a chest
So recently I got an email from oberlin that I will instantly get 10000 commitment scholarship if i enroll or something
Usually oberlin requires an international student to be able to pay at least 6000 dollars for expenses does this mean they can cover these 6000 dollar expenses as well and provide a full ride? (cuz my efc is like 1000)
I've been looking at the Fireforge mounted sergeants, and the sergeants at arms.
But I'm a little worried about the scale. Albion knights on their horses are about the right size for Yeomen, but I've also heard that the FF historical range is a little smaller than the Fantasy. Does anyone have any recommendations or experience with this?
I'll be mixing them in an army with 5th and 6th ed GW Brets and other third party models.
Hey!
I've already applied to oberlin and thinking about it a LOT. Can y'all tell me the overall environment in Oberlin? are the students helpful? Or are they competitive? Does everyone get equal chances despite their race/colour/ background?
Heyy! I'm an international student who's highly interested in Oberlin. I applied for ED-1. Wondering if there's anyone else.. It'd be better if I find someone else who's equally interested in Oberlin.. We both can stress about the result together XD
Please remember to follow the rules of posting within megathreads, which can be found in the main megathread post linked below.

Asking any former yeomen that have left the service if any of the experience you gained as being a yeomen led to a great civilian job and also if it didn’t what steps did you take to get a great paying civilian job
I just got back my prescreening results from Oberlin, and I'm being invited to audition in person in late January. Does anyone here know how many people apply to the clarinet program every year, or how many players Oberlin auditions in person? I just want to see what my chances of getting in are like.
I keep forgetting it's closed. Driving from Oberlin & Glenwood to Cameron Village shouldn't take this long!
Which do I choose for Ed? Grinnel or Oberlin
I am seeking full ride as an international student.
