Why not use the Starfleet Academy motto as the name, the translations is "From the Stars, knowledge" and I think the spelling is right--latin isn't my strong suit--and it could be abbreviated to EAS.
As for classes, well I'm not sure--I'll give it some thought and get back to you.
Teachers. I'm training to be one in RL, so I'd gladly help out in any way I can.
Other comments...I like cake!! And now for something completely different. Will the new recruits ever be given field postings onto IDF ships--just so they can get a taste for what real simming is like? Just thought that might be pretty cool, a cadet slave to boss around.
muwhahahahahahahah (evil laugh)
Anyway those are my thoughts--as erratic and badly spelt as they are.
