In conforming to social distancing guidelines and for the safety of our incoming students, faculty, and the welcoming communities we visit during this academic and only-in-Alaska field experience, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the upcoming Fall 2020 Expedition Alaska. Faculty is in the process of exploring both online and local options for offering these courses related to this trip. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding during this time.
