WE REMEMBER OUR CHANCELLOR Howard Cutler became Chancellor at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, in 1975; he brought meaning to the university and cont- ributed to the interests of the students. A strong advocate of the collegiate model of decision making and student participation, Chancellor Cutler institutionalized the roles of the faculty and students in the policy and advisory funct- ions of the university. Believing in excellence and understanding, Chancellor Cutler has endeavored to promote quality education and has successfully kept in touch with the needs of students. He has said that institutional excellence is achieved by the demands students place on their instructors; he has given us this challenge. He is remembered best for his pioneering spirit and his enthus- iastic involvement in the university community. Expanding our ac- ademic community across oceans, he initiated the exchange progr- ams for students, faculty, and research. He has touched our lives; Chancellor Cutler and his wife, Enid, have warmly attended funct- ions in the dormitories, the commons, athletic games, at the bon- fire, and at many other social functions of our campus community. He has touched our minds; the Chancellor has spoken and listened at the fireside chats and has provided us an example for emulation. He has been, and shall be, a focal point of our memory of the univ- ersity. We owe him a great deal, but can only repay a little. Thank-you Chancellor Cutler. On behalf of the Denali Yearbook and the Students of the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. Bill Zybach, Fall Semester Editor Howard A. Cutler 1975-1981 2 H istory
