Dear UAF community,
This Memorial Day holiday, please join me in taking a moment to remember U.S. military
members who gave their lives in service to their country. Memorial Day is an opportunity
to honor the sacrifice of service members and extend our support to our military families
and friends who have lost loved ones.
At the ÌÀÄ·ÊÓƵ, we are proud to be a veteran-serving institution.
Almost 20% of our student body are veterans, active-duty members or their dependents.
As a military gold institution, our commitment to serving those who serve is stronger
than ever. Thank you to all of the students, faculty, and staff who are current or
former military members for being part of our UAF community.Ìý
I also recognize that Memorial Day can be a challenging time for those who have lost
loved ones. Please remember that you are not alone. UAF offers support and counseling
services to all students and employees. Students can reach out to the Student Health
and Counseling Center at 907-474-7043 for assistance. Employees have access to the
Employee Assistance Program, available 24/7 at 1-888-969-0155.Ìý
Thanks for choosing UAF.
Dan White, chancellor
