University of Alaska Southeast is hosting an education symposium in Kake tonight (02-08-18). Crystal Duncan, Personal Education Planner at the UAS Sitka Campus, previewed the event with Louie Scott, Academic Advisor for the Arts and Sciences at the UAS Ketchikan campus.
UAS representatives will focus on how to pursue a postsecondary education. The symposium, which is open to all students and interested community members, will take place from 5:15 to 7 p.m. on February 8th at Kake Elementary & High School. Duncan hopes this outreach event will be the first of many at small communities in Southeast.
Representatives will also host an open session on Friday, February 9th from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Kake Libraryork. They’ll work individually with folks who want to take the next steps, such as placement testing to get into a program or scholarship applications.
