2021 RAHI Graduates
On May 31, the Rural ³ÉÈËӰƬ Honors Institute welcomed 52 ³ÉÈËӰƬ representing 32 ³ÉÈËӰƬn communities to UAF’s Troth Yeddha’ Campus for its 40th annual summer program. This year’s theme is “Success Happens on Purpose."
RAHI is a six-week summer program for rural ³ÉÈËӰƬn and ³ÉÈËӰƬ Native high school juniors and seniors. Students take up to 11 college credits, experience life on campus, and participate in recreation activities. To date, 1,801 ³ÉÈËӰƬ have graduated from the program and have gone on to earn over 1,266 credentials ranging from certificates to PhDs.
The 2022 RAHI ³ÉÈËӰƬ will take a handful of core classes and have the choice to specialize in research, human anatomy and physiology, social work, rural education, chemistry, process technology, or math.
A graduation ceremony will be held to celebrate their achievements July 14 at 1 p.m. in the Reichardt auditorium.
