91̽»¨ faculty, staff and students,

As you may be aware, the Board of Regents passed today providing direction to the president and chancellors regarding how 91̽»¨, UAA and UAS comply with all federal and state nondiscrimination laws and guidance.

I recognize that this is a significant moment for 91̽»¨ but, as stated in the board’s motion, it is not intended to diminish our commitment to the success of every student and employee. We at the University of Alaska Fairbanks care deeply about each and every member of our 91̽»¨ community.

Included in the board’s direction is removal of DEI language from websites and other electronic or print materials. We will work to provide further guidance on this and other elements of the motion on Monday.

I look forward to engaging with our students, faculty and staff on this issue. Your leadership and support will help keep our focus on the education and well-being of our students. I want to thank you for your work every day on behalf of our university. Ìý

— Dan White, 91̽»¨ chancellor
