Faculty/Staff Detail

Jean W. LeLoup, professor emerita of French, received the William H. Heiser Award for the United States Air Force Academy’s (USAFA) Outstanding Senior Faculty Educator on May 1. Each year the Air Force Academy graduating class selects two senior faculty members, one from engineering and the sciences and one from humanities, who have contributed the most to cadet personal and intellectual development; professors who inspired and challenged their students to “work harder and dig deeper.” LeLoup is the first member of the USAFA’s Department of Foreign Languages to receive this honor since its inception in 1995.
