FROM: Daniel M. White, Chancellor
RE: Vaccination Requirement Request Approval - Kasitsna Bay
The University of Alaska System policy states that vaccination requirements may be made by exception only and must be approved by the President at the request of the Chancellor.
I have received your request for a vaccination requirement for the following:
UAF FACULTY, STAFF AND STUDENTS AT KASITSNA BAY LAB
Based on your request and President Pitney’s approval, I am herewith authorizing a vaccination requirement (with allowance for medical and non-medical-religious exemptions) for that purpose.
Please see the procedures laid out in the September 17, 2021 memo from Chief Human Resources Officer Bishko titled “”. The memo has links to exemption forms for employees. Student exemptions are issued by the Center for Student Rights and Responsibilities (non-medical), or the Student Health and Counseling Center (medical).
