UAA is honored to create an ecosystem of opportunity and achievement that advances solutions addressing Alaska’s most pressing challenges.

UAA’s total enrollment is up more than 5% since last fall, bucking national decline trends. UAA’s first-year class has grown four semesters in a row.

Now, more than ever, is a time to celebrate the legacy of past leaders with an eye toward the future.

Recently, I learned of two powerful stories from University of Alaska Anchorage students who shared the critical role faculty have played in their academic lives.

Communities that are home to a robust university are more resilient during challenging economic times.

I am inspired by the resilience of UAA’s students, faculty and staff in the face of unprecedented hardships ranging from budget cuts to a pandemic.

I’ve seen Senator Dan behind the doors of an office and in the light of public scrutiny. What you see is what you get.

The state needs to go bigger and bolder to save Alaska jobs and businesses.

This is the moment to fight hard and to go big for economic stability to preserve our future.

OPINION: Incumbent Gov. Sean Parnell argues that statements by his opponent independent Bill Walker threaten Alaska's progress toward a long-awaited natural gas project.

OPINION: Gov. Sean Parnell argues that if he hadn't vetoed Senate Bill 108, it would have concealed too many court records, put Alaskans at risk, and diminished the public's ability to hold members of the justice system accountable.

OPINION: Our research confirmed what we already knew, that Alaska needed to change its oil tax structure. ACES put our children and grandchildren’s future at risk, and I acted to change that trajectory of decline so our people would have a fighting chance at a prosperous future.

The brightness of Alaska's future depends on the success of our children. That success hinges on whether we are able to provide educational opportunity for all students, and ensure they are well prepared.

OPINION: Alaskans have many reasons to be thankful on this national day of gratitude, and we should gather and share our talents, time or resources with others.
