Dear UAA Community,

We're heading into the homestretch after an amazingly eventful March including the naming of the Alaska Airlines Center in recognition of a new $6.3M, 10-year agreement with Alaska Airlines. We also watched FedEx pilots land a Boeing 747 on Merrill Field and come to its final resting station at the UAA Aviation Center where it will serve as a training tool for UAA aviation maintenance students.

Give a Seawolf howl to Head Cross County and Track and Field Coach Michael Friess who led UAA in its first season of indoor competition to the women's GNAC title, breaking a nine-year run by Seattle Pacific. Coach Friess was also voted West Region Female Team Coach of the year. Go Seawolves!

These are just some of the amazing stories being written every day at UAA.

Thank you to those who have attended information sessions, provided feedback and volunteered to become involved in the comprehensive review and prioritization of academic and administrative programs and services at UAA that is getting underway. We are committed to making this a transparent and open process. A one-pager describing the process is here. A Program Prioritization website is in the works and there will be a feedback mechanism to ensure all ideas and comments are seen and considered.

I encourage you to get involved.
