As a sophomore on UAA's Nordic team, Casey Wright leads the 'Skiwolves' in classic skiing. And as a member of Australia's national ski program, she represents her homeland at international competitions like the Junior World Championships in Utah and the Asian Winter Games in Japan (and maybe, just maybe, next year's Winter Olympics, too).
In February, UAA junior Kendra Daniels capped the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Gymnastics Team’s best performance of the season with a school-record 9.9 score on beam as the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Anchorage Seawolves competed against UC Davis. Meet Kendra.
UAA's Dr. Corrie Whitmore led a team of faculty, staff and students in applying for a grant that brought a $15,000 Mamava lactation pod to the UAA Student Union. Now, nursing mothers will have a private, dedicated space on campus to feed their children or pump breast milk.
Nursing mothers at the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ now have a dedicated, private space to feed their babies or pump breast milk. The Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Division of Public Health awarded a group of UAA faculty, staff and students an Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ Workplace Breastfeeding Support Project grant through its section of Women's, Children's and Family Health. The project aims to help Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ organizations implement workplace policies and spaces to accommodate breast-feeding mothers.
