How do you get released from air force academy?
There are multiple methods of being disenrolled from the Air Force Academy. The most "friendly" is the AFCW Form 34. This form is filled out by a cadet to voluntarily leave the Academy. Processing takes a few weeks, and then the cadet is free to leave as a civilian if they have not yet begun their third year. Cadets can be involuntarily disenrolled for academic, physical, or military performance deficiencies as well as excessive disregard for rules or violation of the Uniform Code of Military justice. Violation of the Cadet Honor Code, "We will not lie, steal, or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does," is also grounds for immediate disenrollment. Every disenrollment, whether voluntary or involuntarily must be given final approval by the Superintendent of Cadets. Also, any disenrollment after the first day of classes of the third (Junior) year carries a commitment to serve time enlisted in the Air Force.

Was general lee a superintendent at the us military academy while his son was a cadet there?
Yes. George Washington Custis Lee, usually called "Custis" by his family, graduated first in the Class of 1854, so his father was the Superintendent during his last two years as a cadet. Robert E. Lee's nephew, Fitzhugh Lee, was also a student there at the time, in the Class of 1856, so his uncle was in charge for his first three years. Both the younger Lees became cavalry generals in the Confederate service, as did another son of Robert, W. H. F. "Rooney" Lee. Rooney went to Harvard and then entered the US Army after graduating. Robert's youngest son, Robert E. Lee Jr. was a boy of about 11 to 14 years when his father Superintended West Point, and was thus on campus some. "Rob" never served in the US Army, and was a student at the University of Virginia when the war started. He was too young to attain high rank, and spent much of the war as an enlisted man in an artillery battery.
