records are used to record the academic, athletic and military training 
histories of cadets who attend the Academy. They provide a means of 
checking the performance of each cadet, recording all grades for 
completed courses, computing grade point averages, identifying 
deficiencies, and insuring all requirements for graduation are met. 
Grade information is used by cadets, Academy instructors, counselors, 
and advisors in selecting majors, determining academic requirements for 
specific majors, and scheduling courses. Computer listings are also 
used by faculty and staff members to readily identify cadets by 
squadron, class, and population or ethnic group. Academic Review 
Committees and the Academy Board use these records to evaluate cadet 
performance and to determine eligibility for continuance at the 
Academy.
    (2) Historical: These records form a complete history of each cadet 
who attended the Academy. They record academic, athletic, and military 
performance of each cadet and to coordinate statistics relating to 
cadet strength and attrition. Files are reviewed by organizations 
within the Department of Defense to determine qualifications for 
assignments; by Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC), 
recruiting and medical services units to determine qualifications and 
eligibility for training programs and for military service, and by the 
Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC) to confirm or recreate a military 
service record.
