UAA Faculty and Staff Association

by UAA Faculty and Staff Association  |   

Your membership in the UAA Faculty and Staff Association is needed for our advocacy efforts for the upcoming elections and the 2023 legislative session.

Established in 1971, the UAA Faculty and Staff Association is a voluntary organization operating outside the formal structure of the University as a registered political action committee (PAC). Our primary purpose is to engage in political advocacy supporting the growth and development of UAA.

Our top priority is the university’s budget as well as increased funding for building repair, renovation and maintenance. We seek adequate, predictable funding for higher education and for student scholarships.

With the support from our membership, the UAA Faculty and Staff Association meets with legislators, candidates, members of the Board of Regents and university officials to make the case for improved facilities and better funding for UAA and to: 

  • Track legislation of interest to the University of Alaska,
  • Assess the performance of the Anchorage area legislators,
  • Make campaign contributions to candidates who support UAA, and support advocacy campaigns on behalf of UA 

We have supported efforts to increase funding for WWAMI, to secure stable funding for student scholarships, to increase funding for building maintenance, reauthorize  vocational/technical funding, and to solve UA’s land grant deficit. 

Please join us as we work for the advancement of UAA by sending in your membership now. We cannot do it without your backing!   It is your membership dues that keep the Association active.

If you have questions or comments or wish to learn more, please contact us at:

You can pay via credit card via the UAA Faculty and Staff Association website payment portal.
