Please join me today at 1:15 p.m. in the Davis Concert Hall for 2022 Convocation.
The annual event welcomes faculty, staff and students back to UAF for a new academic
year each fall, and is a celebration of the university's people and accomplishments
over the past year. Scavenger hunt prizes will be awarded, and t-shirts and ice cream
will also be available at the event. Take some time to come out and celebrate with
us!
The UAF Center for One Health Research's International Conference, One Health, One
Future 2023, is accepting abstract and poster submissions until Oct. 17. Once submitted,
the materials will be reviewed by the UAF One Health, One Future Planning Team. You
will be notified of the decision no later than Tuesday, Nov. 1. You are allowed to
apply for both an abstract and a poster, but we request that you create two separate
applications.
 The Student Health and Counseling Center (SHCC) wants to help students prepare for
the upcoming winter so that they can enjoy their time in Fairbanks while avoiding
the "winter blues." SHCC has come up with an eight-week preparedness program dedicated
to helping students plan for the potential emotional and social hardships that can
come with the colder and darker months. Beginning Sept. 30, students can stop by the Winter Wellness table in MBS every Friday
from 12-2 p.m. to complete a Winter Wellness activity and enter to win prizes. Fun
giveaways from community partners will be at the table each week as well.
