As part of the 2019 Nanook Rendezvous, the Alumni Association is organizing two open houses on Friday, July 19.


The first open house, cohosted by the Alumni Association and ASUAF Student Media, is open to alumni and the public from noon-2 p.m. The event is in the new media suite in Wood Center 214. Visitors can tour the new KSUA studio, meet student DJs, see the new offices for the Sun Star, find out how the online newspaper is created and meet student journalists and media professionals.



The second open house is from 2-4 p.m. in the Office of Intellectual Property and Commercialization on the fourth floor of the Engineering Learning and Innovation Facility. This event is cohosted by the Alumni Association, OIPC, and the Center for Innovation, Commercialization and Entrepreneurship. Visitors can learn about UAF's entrepreneurial activities, discover this year's top inventions and meet the people behind companies established from university research.

There will be giveaways at both locations. For more information, contact uaf-alumni@alaska.edu.
