UA President Hamilton pitches legislature on university funding

University of Alaska President Mark Hamilton wants to open more doors to education for the state’s high school graduates. In a presentation to the House Finance Committee this week, Hamilton said more than 10 years ago the legislature wanted him to prepare more Alaskans to join the state’s work force.  And he said that, now, the University has become the biggest engine for jobs in the state.
