  • UNIVERSITY of ALASKA President’S Report
    UNIVERSITY of ALASKA President’s Report 2006-2007 “The Next Thousand Days” Letter from UA President Mark Hamilton The University of Alaska stands at the brink of tremendous opportunity. The next thousand days takes us roughly to our 50th anniversary of Alaska’s statehood, achieved in 1959. As we head toward this celebration, I ask this question: Have we done all that we can to make the 49th star on the American flag the best that it can be? We’ve made great progress, but we must do more. We’re a state blessed with an abundance of natural resources, from oil and gas to fish and minerals. Have we made the most of these resources, providing a maximum benefit to the Alaskans who live here? Are we preparing our young people to take the legacy jobs that will exist long after a new gas pipeline has been constructed? The next thousand days present an awesome opportunity to reflect on the past and ensure a bright future. At UA this past year we awarded a record 3,223 degrees and certificates – the most ever in a single year. Public confidence in our state university system has never been stronger. More high school graduates than ever are choosing to attend college, and they are choosing UA. The UA Scholars program has been wildly successful, beyond anything I had hoped for when it was first introduced in 1999. In short, we’re on a roll. We have many goals over the next thousand days. They roughly fall into one of these three categories: • Workforce Development – Strengthening programs aimed at producing an educated and trained workforce for Alaska,

Each WCHA team will play a single series against the other nine league schools with all but three of the contests slated to be played in January and February 2021. Additionally, league teams will play a total of 38 non-league games beginning Nov. 20. Due to limited opportunities for contests against non-league opponents this season, 30 of those contests will pit WCHA teams against each other in games that will not count in the league standings. Return to Competition Protocols In addition to state and local health and safety guidelines in force at each WCHA campus, the 2020-21 schedule will play out under the WCHA’s Return to Competition protocols. Those protocols will include COVID-19 testing for student- athletes, coaches, staff and game officials as well as social-distancing requirements at all WCHA arenas. Non-League Contests While every WCHA team will face at least one other league opponent in non-league competition, Alabama Huntsville and Bowling Green are the only WCHA teams scheduled to face teams from outside the league.

In their last 17 games dating back to last season (Jan. 23), the Beavers have posted five victories over top-10 opponents (No. 7 UMD, No. 1 Minnesota State, No. 6 Bowling Green and No. 2 MSU last season). BSU, which is 10-5-2 overall during that stretch, will get its next opportunity to slay a giant this weekend with a home-and-home against top-ranked North Dakota (whom the Beavers defeated on opening night last season in Grand Forks, when UND was ranked No.
