UAF students on exchange in Japan
March 21, 2011
Nine students from UAF were on exchange to Japan when the March 11 earthquake and tsunami hit. The UAF Office of International Programs has made contact with all of those students, three of whom have elected to return to the United States. UAF is closely monitoring the situation in Japan and is in regular contact with the remaining students there. UAF is not issuing a mandatory recall of students at this time. Communication with students has included current information on U.S. State Department advice to travelers in Japan, as well as any other relevant information and resources.
