Devastating & predictable after last week’s BOR motion. @inspiringgirls-ak.bsky.social took a few trainings from NDAC over the years that positively impacted our teaching & facilitation on our expeditions. Did anyone archive their pages? Would love to help make sure the resources remain accessible.
A screenshot of a Facebook post from Ronnie Houchin that reads “The Nanook Diversity and Action center seems to be no more. The former url (www.uaf.edu/ndac) redirects to the Wood Center’s homepage. I saw this coming a year ago when my “leadership” began telling me that NDAC did too much for queer students and that NDAC made straight, white, Christian men feel unwelcome. It’s so sad to see a program that I helped build, and that made a difference in so many students’ lives, just suddenly…disappear.”

We've received an enormous outpouring of support in the past few weeks, and we're now over halfway to our goal! 3/
A water bottle graphic with the Inspiring Girls Expeditions Alaska logo represents the progress of the fundraising campaign to run the program's expeditions this summer as planned. The bottle is a little over halfway full to a line marked $19,340. The full bottle represents $36,000. The graphic is overlaid on a semi-transparent image of people on a rope team climbing up bare glacier ice.
