The nonpartisan board is comprised of seven volunteers from across Kansas and is overseen by Karin Wisdom, Senator Roberts’ District Director in Wichita. As part of the decision-making process, board members conduct personal interviews with the applicants, as well as review their written applications, G.P.A. and standardized test scores. Once nominated by Senator Roberts, the applicants then must meet the individual admission requirements of each academy. The academies will make the final decision on who will receive an appointment of admission. Due to the limited number of openings at each academy, not every nominee will receive an appointment. The academies this spring will announce appointments for the class entering in July 2014. Senator Roberts’ nominees are as follows: Air Force Academy-Colorado Springs, CO Vincent Bailey, Hays Jacob Brown, Kansas City Jared Brown, Kansas City Luke McGowan, Basehor David Nolan, Overland Park Michael Pieschl, Brookville Scott Rider, Wichita Jenna Schuckman, Hays Lucas Scott, Olathe Caitlin Smith, Olathe Naval Academy - Annapolis, MD George Bousfield, Wichita Hallie Breidenthal, Overland Park Caulan Brooks, Larned David Christie Jr., Lansing Cory Donley, Salina Dallas Ernsdorff, Lenexa Joshua Hanna, Winfield Carter McCausland, Wichita Matthew McKee, Salina Alison Manske, Prairie Village Eamon Mulholland, Atchison Frey Pankratz, Wichita Ross Puritty Jr., Wichita Caitlyn Renne, Baldwin City David Salinas Jr., Olathe Madison Sargent, Prairie Village Clay Schemm, Sharon Springs Madeline Ward, Lenexa Abigail White, Wichita Richard Zirkle, Derby U.S. Military Academy - West Point, NY Gabriel Bann, Wichita Ryan Brunner, Topeka Bryce Divis, Great Bend Faith Ford, Wichita Lexie Johnson, Bucyrus Julie Linstra, Olathe Kellen Mahood, Overland Park Derek Martin, Conway Springs Kyle Parker, Overland Park Arran Rounds, Shawnee Merchant Marine Academy-Kings Point, NY Leah Devers, Olathe Mariah Klenke, Pittsburg Stephen Lucy, Leawood Zebadiah Willey, Olathe Senator Roberts will begin accepting applications in March for nominations to academy classes entering in July 2015.
