Please join us at a reception to honor the 2004 recipients of the Dennis Demmert Appreciation and Recognition Awards in conjunction with the celebration of Elizabeth Peratrovich Day. Monday, Feb. 16, at 4 p.m. in the Gathering Room on the main Floor of the Brooks building.

The Dennis Demmert Appreciation and Recognition Award provides an opportunity for students to nominate a person whom they feel has positively affected their academic efforts here at UAF. This year marks the tenth year the RSS students and staff will recognize individuals on campus whose efforts demonstrate UAF’s goal of being the educational center for Alaska Natives. During the 1994 Native Summit at UAF, Dennis Demmert recommended that something be done to recognize individuals whose actions have proven their support. The name was changed from RSS Appreciation and Recognition Award to the Dennis Demmert Appreciation and Recognition Award in honor of the many years of service that Dennis has given for the betterment of the Alaska Native community.
