Every year, CBSM releases two newsletters to highlight important CBSM events and achievements, and to acknowledge our hardworking faculty and students.
Growing up surrounded by the pristine waters of Southeast Alaska, MBA student Cassidy
Patton dreamed of a career at sea. Initially envisioning a career as a fisherwoman,

introduced her to the concept of a maritime academy—a revelation that changed the
trajectory of her life.
What does it take to plan a sold-out, unforgettable event that celebrates an incredible leader like Tracy Vanairsdale? A lot of teamwork, inspiration, and behind-the-scenes magic!
The reality is, that we are ALL Emergency Management Professionals. Follow the CBSM communications specialist through a dive into the world of tsunamis and earthquakes- and learn how you can help mitigate natural disasters in Alaska.
At the UAF College of Business and Security Management (CBSM), we believe success is more than just academic excellence—it’s about stepping into the professional world with confidence, grace, and a strong handshake.
