Chancellor’s Report on Philanthropy
Summer 2023
Dear fellow donor,
As the temperature rises in Fairbanks, I find great warmth in celebrating the accomplishments of our students.
In May, we gathered for ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s 101st commencement, witnessing the graduation of over 1,000 talented individuals. The event was made even more memorable as attendees engaged in the first-ever stadium wave, creating an atmosphere of unity and excitement.
The next week, we hosted the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Blue & Gold Celebration, an extraordinary evening dedicated to honoring our students and recognizing the profound impact of scholarship support. During this special occasion, we had the privilege of acknowledging the recipients of this year’s Emil Usibelli Distinguished Teaching, Research and Service Awards, while also raising funds to provide vital scholarships for students.
I extend my deepest gratitude to donors like you, whose contributions have played a pivotal role in enabling students to pursue their education. Your support has transformed the lives of individuals who would have otherwise faced financial obstacles hindering their access to a world-class education at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ. Your commitment to these students enables them to reach their full potential.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your involvement in celebrating our students alongside us. With your support, we continue to strive toward building a bright future for ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
Thank you for your generosity and dedication.
Dan White
Chancellor
