- Although it is probably safe to assume all cadets read the Prime Directive and General Orders, it has not been established whether the same is true of the other texts, or whether they are required merely for students in specific courses. This may explain why Benjamin Sisko was familiar with "The Fall of Kang," while Piersall was not. (DS9: "Second Sight")
