Earn prizes during National Distance Learning Week

National Distance Learning Week celebrates students who are pursuing their education online or via distance. To celebrate, UAF eCampus is hosting a Facebook event Nov. 8-12. Daily prizes are $25 Amazon gift cards.

All calls now take extra digits. If your office phone is on call forward, you'll need to change that, too. Be sure to dial 8- for off-campus calls — very important so your call doesn’t go to 9-1-1!
