UAF’S STUDENT UNION, AND WHERE THE ACTION HAPPENS

WOOD CENTER

Our student union just got bigger and better, literally. With our brand-new facility, grab a coffee, meet your friends, find out what’s going on. This is where student life starts.

Bonfires, concerts, mud volleyball — Nanook Traditions just might become some of your best memories.

Fact is, it’s easier to live on campus. We are a residential campus. First-time freshmen live on the EDGE (Education, Development, Growth and Experience), with programs to help make the transition from high school to independent living. There are also dorms and apartments, and housing for families. www.uaf.edu/reslife/

Get out and get gone! Snowboard and ski terrain park. An outdoor climbing wall that switches to ice climbing in the winter. 21 miles of cross-country ski trails. Rafting, trail running, hiking. www.uaf.edu/draw/

COOL. MTV GAVE OUR STUDENT-RUN RADIO STATION THE WOODIE AWARD.
