Health and Safety
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ takes your student's safety seriously. On-campus medical services, counseling services, fire department and police services are just the start of our promise to you that we'll do everything in our power to keep your student safe at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Care Team
Are you worried about how your student is doing? It's hard to be a supportive family
member, especially if there's a great distance between you and ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
The ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Care team is a group of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ staff and employees in different departments that
can do non-emergency welfare checks, connect you or your student with resources (including
mental health and medical resources) and help your student navigate college life when
they're struggling.
You can even ask anonymously for a Care Team member to just check up on your student
to make sure they are settling into their semester. There are all kinds of things
that your student may need help with, and you may not know who to ask for help. The
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Care Team is a good place to start.
Health and Counseling
The mission of the University of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Fairbanks Student Health and Counseling Center
is to help all ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ students connect with resources to ensure their mental, physical
and emotional health on campus.
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Health and Counseling offers multiple services available on the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Troth Yeddha'
Fairbanks campus, including some basic medical care and counseling. Students pay a
consolidated fee along with their tuition and fees every semester, which gives them
access to the Health and Counseling Center. There are no office visit charges, but
there may be fees for specific services.
Campus Safety
ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ is proud to keep the Troth Yeddha' Fairbanks campus a safe and secure place for
every student. While most safety situations can be resolved without them, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's on-campus
firefighters and police officers are always close to residence halls and ready to
respond to any emergency.
The ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Police Department also provides many safety services, including police escorts,
campus event security, vehicle unlocks, and jumpstarts.

Student Recreation Center
Has your student started to picture themselves hiking in the snow up in ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ? How
about climbing a man-made ice wall on their college campus? Whatever their activity
goals may be, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's Student Recreation Center (SRC) has up-to-date equipment and expertise
to support them.
The SRC provides ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's campus community with the opportunities and facilities required
to lead active, healthy lifestyles during the school year and over holiday breaks.
For more information on ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's Outdoor Adventures program, dance and yoga classes,
intramural sports teams, and extensive equipment rentals, visit the SRC website.
