A University of Alaska Fairbanks drone team headed to Western Alaska Wednesday to
support the U.S. Coast Guard's emergency response following Typhoon Merbok. Over the
next few days to weeks, the team will work alongside the Coast Guard's Marine Safety
Task Force as they assess infrastructure damage at as many as 20 coastal communities
in Alaska's Bering Strait.
Are you gearing up for social reading as daylight grows shorter? UAF's book clubs
invite faculty, instructors and staff to connect through reading and dialogue. Fall
reading lists have been announced by the Indigenous Authors and Innovations in Learning
book clubs. The UAF Faculty Accelerator will purchase digital or physical books for club members. Complete a form to request copies of this semester’s books. Requests must be submitted by Sept. 25.
Writers from the UAF community are invited to register for a Month of Writing, which
will include weekly writing sessions and workshops. In addition to accountability
for maintaining a regular writing practice, participants can expect to develop new
skills for navigating academic, technical, and creative writing as well as techniques
for productivity and wellness in our writing practices.
