Dear Colleagues,
Your support of the UAA Faculty and Staff Association is needed for our advocacy efforts for the upcoming 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.
The UAA Faculty and Staff Association meets with legislators, candidates, members of the Board of Regents, and university officials. 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.
The UAA Faculty and Staff Association:
We have advocated for stable funding for student scholarships, to increase funding for building maintenance, to reauthorize vocational/technical funding, to increase funding for WWAMI and to solve UA's land grant deficit.
Please join us as we work for the advancement of UAA by sending in your contribution now. We cannot do it without your backing! It is your contribution that keeps the Association active.
