University of Alaska Anchorage

The University of Alaska Anchorage traces its origins back to 1954, when Anchorage Community College (ACC) was founded... In 1962, ACC, along with other community colleges around the state, was incorporated into the University of Alaska statewide system. ...In the late 1960s, strong interest in establishing a four-year university in Anchorage brought about the birth of the University of Alaska, Anchorage Senior College (ASC). In 1977, ASC became a four-year university and was renamed the University of Alaska, Anchorage (UA,A). Ten years later, ACC and UA,A merged to become what is now known as the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA). - Homepage am 17.03.2020 https://www.uaa.alaska.edu/about/mission-values-vision.cshtml#history
