As we wrap up one more academic year and celebrate the successes of our graduating
students during UAF's 102nd commencement, I want to recognize the tremendous amount of work that goes on to provide a quality
education and experience to every student. Every individual's work at the university,
directly or indirectly, contributes to the powerful academic engine that, in turn,
contributes to student success. Thank you to our hardworking staff; your kindness and care is the reason that some
students are able to pursue the journey they set forth for themselves. I also want to take this moment to extend a special thanks to our faculty. Continue reading about faculty accomplishments.
