Tuesday Afternoon Fountain Jumps

Groups of cadets arrived on the Terrazzo to participate in the fountain jumps after completing their last final. The tradition of jumping into the fountains began with the first class of graduates in 1959. This tradition allows cadets to celebrate their accomplishments as well as to engage in camaraderie with their friends.

The graduation ceremony will take place on May 25. There are several events taking place next week prior to the ceremony. To learn more about the events leading up to graduation day, visit the U.S Air Force Academy website.
