Dear UAF students, faculty and staff,

I was saddened to learn that Uddeep Karki died Sunday.

Uddeep was an engaged and enthusiastic math major in his fourth year at UAF. He was also a student employee in web design with eCampus. My condolences go to his wife and son, to his other family and friends, and to the students, staff and faculty who knew him.

If you or someone you know is struggling with this loss, please don’t struggle alone. Free help is available.

For students, the Student Health and Counseling Center can provide support or counseling. Call 907-474-7043 to speak with someone, or, for more information, visit the student counseling services webpage. Employees are eligible for free counseling through the Employee Assistance Program. Please call 1-888-993-7650, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 

— Dan White, chancellor
