Contact staff
The Marketing and Communications team is made up of some of the most creative and energetic staff you'll find on the Fairbanks campus, although, technically, we are not actually on the Fairbanks campus (see location below). That doesn't stop us from taking amazing photos of our university in action, designing top-notch websites, producing award-winning recruitment publications or writing fascinating stories about our students, faculty and staff. When we're not doing those things, you'll find us out and about in the Fairbanks community winning a local spelling bee competition, mushing in sled dog races, or eating a lot of Thai food.
