UAF Student Support Services will celebrate TRiO Day on Feb. 18, 2014 from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Wood Center multilevel lounge.


TRiO Day is an annual, national celebration honoring high-achieving TRiO students, TRiO supporters and successful TRiO alumni.

TRiO programs, established by the federal government beginning in the 1960s, provide services for students from disadvantaged backgrounds.

The annual TRiO Day brings awareness to the programs at UAF and the challenges faced by low-income, first-generation and disabled students seeking a college education. Refreshments will be provided.

For more information on this event or TRiO programs at UAF, contact Student Support Services at 474-6844, trio.sss@alaska.edu, or stop by 514 Gruening Building.
