Academic Success Center

Donations to the Academic Success Center at the Air Force Academy directly support and elevate cadets’ academic experience at the Academy. Contributions are used to facilitate workshops and increase the number of group and individual cadet consultation sessions across the center. Larger donations will augment evening support hours and allow cadets additional opportunities to visit the center outside of their busy morning and afternoon schedules.

Quantitative Reasoning Center

The Quantitative Reasoning Center helps cadets overcome challenges and fine-tune their academic performance in STEM courses through individual extra instruction and targeted small group sessions. QRC faculty also design and deliver customized small group sessions and workshops focused on specific STEM topics to improve quantitative literacy. These small group meetings offer cadets an extra opportunity to participate in targeted STEM discussions.

Writing Center

The Writing Center assists cadets at any stage in the writing process: brainstorming, researching, outlining, drafting and editing. Faculty help cadets hone their writing skills by offering one-on-one sessions, shut up and write events, and topic-specific workshops. Cadets learn how to identify their own strengths and areas for improvement, including appropriate evidence, grammar, organization, rhetorical situation, syntax, tone and transitions.

Public Speaking Lab

Public speaking specialists help cadets refine and improve academic presentations in the classroom, leadership speeches in the Cadet Wing and interview preparation for graduate studies and scholarship. The lab’s staff can record practice sessions and provide feedback on all aspects of public speaking. The PSL helps cadets connect to their audience, present with poise, and communicate effectively.
