Air Force Academy in doubt amid higher attrition rate
A critical rewrite asserts the Air Force Academy shows rising dropout and cost per graduate with a congressional probe. It notes attrition 40 percent for the class of 107 versus 38 at West Point and 34 at Annapolis, while praising academics and military output through Rhodes scholars and NCAA-recognized scholars. The piece discusses draft-era perceptions and detente era impacts on service careers, but argues the academy remains fiscally costly yet academically strong with robust officer retention after graduation.
