2020 Student Diversity Award accepting applications

Greetings UAA Staff and Faculty:

The UAA Diversity Action Council (DAC) is once again sponsoring the Student Diversity Awards, which are awarded to students who have significantly enhanced diversity on a UAA campus by increasing visibility of diverse people, cultures, and/or perspectives; creating a welcoming environment; and/or representing diverse student voices through advocacy and participation in UAA student organizations.

Please bring this opportunity to the attention of students you know who would be excellent candidates for this recognition, which includes a tuition award for the fall 2020 semester. In order to be considered, students must complete an application, which includes three brief essay questions and a letter of endorsement from a professional or university reference. Please direct students to uaa.alaska.edu/student-diversity-award for application instructions and further information. The application deadline is Friday, Oct. 30, 2020 at 5 p.m.

Attached is the announcement poster, please distribute as you are able. Thank you for your continued commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion at UAA.

Sincerely,
UAA DAC Student Diversity Awards Committee
