In the previous space column, I introduced my position and some higher level goals. This month I wanted to share
some insight into what goes into a Facilities Inventory Database. I’ve gotten to spend
time with some of you doing walkthroughs of many buildings on the Troth Yeddha' campus,
but for those who I haven’t talked to, or who have seen me from a distance and wanted
to know what I’m working on – this one’s for you!
The University of Alaska Fairbanks is currently casting students for The College Tour,
an Amazon Prime streaming series, and we're looking for fun and engaging students
to be featured in our episode! Each episode tells the story of a single college through the lens of its students.
Have a student you think would be great? Encourage them to apply by July 8 by sending
them
here to learn about the segments and to submit a short selfie video.
Three small Alaska schools will receive refurbished smart devices for use in a new
drones program under a partnership between the University of Alaska Fairbanks Geophysical
Institute and Green Star of Interior Alaska. Schools in Nulato, Nenana and Valdez will receive the electronics through the Drone
Research and Opportunities for Native Elementary Students program, or DRONES, a project
of the Geophysical Institute Education Outreach Office and funded by the National
Science Foundation.
