The University of Alaska Board of Regents voted to reinstate the Alpine ski team at the University of Alaska Anchorage. The board's action was in response to its September decision to consider reinstatement of the program if the team could successfully reach established fundraising goals. That effort, led by head coach Sparky Anderson, resulted in local, regional and national supporters exceeding the goal of $628,000, equal to two years of operating expenses.
