Pitney sounded a positive note for developments in the university system going forward.
Among the accomplishments of the last year, Pitney mentioned a legislative victory that may lead to more land for the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
In the last ten years, Pitney says Alaskan universities have awarded 44 thousand degrees and certificates, and enrollment is going up starting in the spring. This, she explains, is especially valuable in light of the worker shortage the state is facing. “Today, we have 25 thousand fewer working-age adults in Alaska than we did ten years ago. We are facing an acute shortage in key sectors of our communities: teaching, health care, CPAs [Certified Public Accountants] and construction workers, just to name a few. Our universities are a big part of the solution to meet those workforce needs.
