UAA seeks nominations by Oct. 14 for naming of campus residential halls

UAA has long referred to its residential halls as MAC, West Hall, Templewood, East Hall and North Hall. The time has come to choose names for these facilities that better reflect Alaskans' contributions to the fields of research, academic discovery, leadership and governance. We are currently accepting nominations for consideration based on the following criteria:

• Naming will honor Alaska community members who are no longer living.
• The naming committee will place emphasis on contributions by distinguished Alaskans and others who have made outstanding contributions to the state, Alaska culture and/or the UAA campuses.

Good examples of potential nominees include: former members of the UA Board of Regents, the University of Alaska Foundation's Board of Trustees, advisory boards, alumni, donors, former university presidents, chancellors, faculty and staff of the university who have significantly contributed to the UAA campuses.

UAA will accept nominations through Oct. 14, 2011. Recommendations will then be forwarded to the Chancellor's Cabinet for consideration.
