US Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs, CO
October 18, 2007
This is an exciting opportunity to experience a very unique postsecondary environment. Visit the US Air Force Academy and see what life is like at the college US News ranked the #1 Baccalaureate College in the west. The students at the USAFA are highly selected and complete a rigorous program. Attendance from the University of Colorado at Boulder is limited to 10 graduate students and postdocs and will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis. Because the USAFA will need to make security arrangements to get the visiting students on campus we will need firm commitments from the attendees. If you want to attend the site visit, please contact PJ Bennett at colpff@colorado.edu or 303-492-4902 with your name, department and a CV by Oct 10, 2007.
