Fueling Up for Finals was a huge success today!

We loved seeing so many students, faculty, and staff stop by the Rasmuson Hall lobby to take a break, connect, and grab some food before finals week. CBPP was proud to help fuel our students for the week ahead.

A big shoutout to our very own Mike Wyne, who stepped up as grill master and cooked over 300 hot dogs—keeping the line moving and the energy high all morning.

Thank you to Moose's Tooth Pub & Pizzeria for generously donating pizza, and to Dr. Sharon Lind and the Alaska Native Business Management Program for their support in making this event possible.

We appreciate everyone who came out and helped make this event such a great way to wrap up the semester. Good luck on finals—you’ve got this!
