Dear faculty and staff,
Welcome to the fall semester! Whether you were on contract this summer or recently
returned, I hope you enjoyed your summer and are ready to hit the ground running this
fall.
It was energizing to see students bustling about campus last week. Thanks to all the
staff and faculty who worked to make Rev-it-up and New Student Orientation a welcoming
event for our new students. I am looking forward to another year filled with transformative
experiences.
We have a lot to be proud of as we enter the new academic year. UAF continues to provide
a world-class education to our students, invest in meaningful community partnerships,
and conduct top-tier research as America’s Arctic University and Alaska’s Â鶹¹ÙÍø
University. Thank you for the work you do to make this possible.
I invite you to join me on Tuesday, Sept. 12 at 1 p.m. in the Davis Concert Hall for
the 2023 Convocation. At this year’s Convocation, I will reflect on our recent successes
and share a bit about the exciting opportunities for UAF in the coming years. And
importantly, all staff and faculty are invited to an ice cream social after the event.Ìý
Thank you for your commitment to UAF and our students. Thank you for choosing UAF.Ìý
—ÌýDan White, chancellor
