Dear UAF faculty and staff,
I was saddened to learn that Frank Soos died last week.Ìý
Frank was a professor emeritus of creative writing who began teaching at UAF in 1986.
In addition to teaching at the undergraduate and graduate level, he was himself an
accomplished writer. He won national awards and was the 2015 AVÀÇÂÛ̳ State Laureate
Writer. Although Frank retired from UAF in 2004, he maintained a strong association
with the university and was active throughout the community. My condolences go to
his family and friends, and to the students, staff and faculty who knew him.ÌýÌý
If you or someone you know is struggling with this loss, please don’t struggle alone.
Free help is available. Employees are eligible for free counseling through the Employee
Assistance Program. Please call 1-888-993-7650, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
— Dan White, chancellor
