I haven't been an active CFI for quite a while, but I think that this is the first time I've seen touch-and-goes for a first solo!

Did three as well for my first solo back in 1986.

A student wrecked N704YE trying to do a touch and go at our field 12/01/99. He started driving the yoke instead of flying the pedals and lost it.

Now no touch and goes for pre-private students unless they are with an instructor at MOR. They make them do full stop landings.
 
I also did 3 T & G's on my solo... '97 I think. The only problem I had was finding out I had a stuck mic while singing some Z.Z. Top song while on short final. That wasn't good.
 
Same here, 3 "crash 'n dash", back in late '97.

My instructor actually relented and let me change shirts (I had just left work in my good office clothes) before cutting it up.
