Changes in University and Student Advancement
January 31, 2014
As part of a strategic realignment effort within the Division of University and Student
Advancement, the UAF Development Office and the UAF Alumni Association and Alumni
Relations will be integrated to form a single, unified office known as the Office
of Development and Alumni Relations. Institutional Events will be integrated into
UAF Marketing and Communications.
This merger began Jan. 1, 2014. The new Office of Development and Alumni Relations
will better integrate efforts to realize UAF’s strategic philanthropic goals, enhance
Alumni outreach efforts, provide critical administrative and program support to Alumni
Relations and the UAF Alumni Association, and leverage existing staff and financial
resources.
The integration of these departments will enable UAF to realize the many opportunities
associated with our 100th Anniversary in 2017, and provide the foundation for UAF
to build its Alumni Relations program, philanthropic giving and institutional marketing
efforts for years to come.
