The Air Force Academy graduates will vote on whether to award honorary membership in the academy's alumni association to Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist.
The vote will be held by the board of directors of the Association of Graduates, the academy's nonprofit alumni group, and will also consider Kirk for an honorary Air Force Academy degree.
However, the Association of Graduates does not have the authority to award honorary degrees, and the motion instead recommends the Air Force Academy award it.
It was unclear whether the academy had the authority to issue honorary degrees.
The vote is scheduled to take place on Friday.
