Conclusion and policy recommendations.
520 The mission of the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA)
is "to educate, train and inspire men and women to become
officers of character, motivated to lead the United States
Air Force in service to our nation." To achieve this
mission, USAFA provides cadets with both military training
and a four-year college education similar to that offered
at civilian institutions. Unlike at civilian institutions,
however, USAFA academic classes are taught by a mix of
active-duty military officers and civilian professors.
Since civilians were formally incorporated onto the
faculty at USAFA in the early 1990s, there has been
continued debate over the best mix of military and
civilian faculty needed to achieve the academy's mission.
Furthermore, the Air Force currently faces difficulty in
meeting USAFA faculty requirements for officers with
advanced academic degrees, often resulting in understaffed
departments. Funding for temporary faculty to fill these
positions is also declining. A RAND study sought to help
address these issues by examining the impact of potential
changes to the current military-civilian academic faculty
composition in five areas of importance to USAFA's mission
and the broader U.S. Air Force: (1) cadets' officership
development, (2) cadets' academic development, (3) cost,
(4) staffing challenges, and (5) officer career
development (i.e., how degree attainment and teaching
tours at USAFA affect the career paths of active-duty
military personnel at different points in their careers).
Based on the study's findings, this report makes
recommendations for a faculty composition that best
balances these key factors and is sustainable into the
future.
