Research and Creative Activity Day is canceled

March 17, 2020

University Relations

After much discussion over the past week, the Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarly Activity, or URSA, has decided to cancel UAF Research and Creative Activity Day, which was scheduled for Tuesday, April 7.

This was not an easy decision given all of the hard work that our undergraduate students and their mentors have put into their projects over this past academic year. While this annual showcase of research and creative endeavors that our undergraduate students and their mentors have been involved in has always been one of the highlights of each academic year, circumstances associated with COVID-19 and the health of our students, staff, faculty, administration and guests preempt such a gathering.

We know that this is likely a disappointing decision for many of you, and we appreciate your understanding. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact URSA at ursa.edu@alaska.edu or 450-8772.

Thank you for a great year. We look forward to seeing you at Research and Creative Activity Day in 2021.
