UAF recently submitted our annual operating and capital budget request for FY24 to
President Pitney. The President will weigh our needs alongside those of UAA, UAS,
the system office, and what she feels is an appropriate request to the governor. The
President will present her draft proposal to the Board of Regents in September and
then again in final form in November before the budget is submitted to the Governor’s
office in December for consideration. Once President Pitney releases her proposal
for presentation to the BOR in a couple of weeks we will share with you what was included
from UAF’s request.
UAF Chief of Staff
As a result of a recent assessment of UAF Executive Officer Nickole Conley's job duties,
her working title has been changed to UAF Chief of Staff (CoS). This title change
is more reflective of the work Nickole conducts across UAF. This change in working
title does not impact current reporting lines or job duties.
Nominations are open for membership on the Faculty Senate Committee on the Status
of Women. Those interested in serving should submit a nomination by Aug. 31, 2022. Self-nominations are welcome.
Representatives from the Arctic Education Alliance are visiting the University of
