He briefly wrote for the Academy newspaper and was a member of the junior varsity volleyball team. During his time at the Academy, he demonstrated strengths in languages, combat and diplomacy, and discovered he was an exceptional pilot, but struggled in the areas of engineering, chemistry and xenobiology. By the end of his second year, his poor scores in these disciplines lowered his grade average such that Admiral Wagner refused to be the faculty adviser for Didrik's junior thesis on the use of guerilla tactics in the last days of the Dominion War. | ||
In the fall of 2384, Didrik began his third year at the Academy on shaky ground. Depressed at his poor performance in some of his core courses and buckling under the stress of trying to catch up, he quickly grew discouraged and disillusioned with life as a Starfleet cadet. He took a leave of absence from the Academy in November 2384, not fully intending to return. | In the fall of 2384, Didrik began his third year at the Academy on shaky ground.
