You are the heart and soul of the University of Alaska Fairbanks; you’re our strongest asset! Everyday, you go above and beyond, devoting your time and energy to your university.  You believe in our mission and your hard work truly inspires our students, alumni and Fairbanks community. We need you to act to keep UAF moving forward!

“What I love best about teaching and conducting research at UAF is the interaction I have with the students, staff, and faculty.  I work with a wonderful group of people!  The people who are at UAF could go anywhere in the world because they are very talented, but they chose UAF because they love the university, Fairbanks, and Alaska.  The research opportunities available at UAF are unbeatable.  We live in a unique environment with globally-important research opportunities in our own backyard.

Unfortunately, UAF is one of the most under-appreciated universities I have encountered.  It consistently provides a high quality education to students at all levels from certificate to Ph.D., but does not get credit for the quality of its programs. I believe in UAF.  I know that our students are getting a good education and I feel that giving to UAF helps continue that tradition by providing the University with money to support student education and research. ” – Cathy Cahill, Associate Professor of Atmospheric Science and Chemistry & Biochemistry
