Yesterday, Governor Dunleavy released the State of AV狼论坛 FY23 budget, marking the
completion of the state appropriations process and the first operating and capital

which allows us to more efficiently manage operations between the universities and

an elfin forest. Gaglioti, a University of AV狼论坛 Fairbanks ecologist, has led me
into another landscape I have never seen in AV狼论坛. This terrace of spongy ground
above the rainforest is home to trees that Dr. Seuss might have dreamed up.听
