Tickets are on sale for the University of Alaska Fairbanks College of Business and
Security Management's 44th Business Leader of the Year dinner and award ceremony.
The 2022 event, scheduled for 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 18, at the Westmark Fairbanks Hotel’s
Gold Room, will honor Joe Usibelli Jr., president of Usibelli Coal Mine. Usibelli
was initially selected as the UAF Business Leader of the Year in 2020, but the event
was postponed due to the pandemic until it could be held safely in person.
Student groups and campus organizations can apply for a grant of up to $1,000 from
the UAF Alumni Association. The funds will support projects that identify specific
needs and improve campus opportunities for current students. The application deadline
is Oct. 14. If you are a student or work with a student organization, you are invited
to make a request through the UAFAA Benefactor Fund form. Last year, UAFAA awarded more than $13,000 to 14 student organizations. Many of the
awards supported community and connectivity among students, as well as outreach.
