Welcome back to the fall semester! It is a change in seasons and change in the feeling
on the Troth Yeddha' Campus as students return to UAF. I'm sure this feeling is shared
at all of the UAF, CTC and community campus locations. As part of preparation for
this return, the team in Administrative Services is working hard to make campus look
great and feel welcoming, continue with construction work during the busy summer season,
and improve and test our safety and notification protocols on campus to ensure the
Nanook community is well-situated in case of an emergency.
Family Medical Leave Training recording online
For those unable to attend one of the training sessions online, a recording is available
to view on the UA HR benefits page.
