The Academy itself was connected to a civilian settlement known as a [[Asimov Center]] via a series of tunnels and surface tubes. These tubes would often need to be guarded against civilian incursions onto academy grounds, and vice versa.<ref>''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]'', page 431</ref>

==History==
==Known Graduates==
In [[2492]], a scandal at the academy occurred involving the overnight disappearances of [[Inna Volkov]], the daughter of [[Konrad Volkov|Admiral Konrad Volkov]], from officers' family quarters on base and sightings of her in the company of a young man, which eventually culminated to the [[Ivan Cole|impregnation]] of Inna. In response, six OCS cadets [[JAG Incident Report (local) 475-A|were brought before]] the school's [[Board of Inquiry]] to testify, including [[Preston Cole]]. Though Cole was not found guilty of any wrongdoing, he married Inna two months later to end the incident.<ref>''Halo: Evolutions'', "The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J.
