I think the Anchorage and Juneau brances drop from four to 2 years, and make UA as the main 4 year campus. That would allocate majority of funding to the main campus so that they can continue to build the med school. You get more federal money for research with a med school than continue running 2 schools. That means all sports dropped at Anchorage campus, sell some land there, and add the sports to Fairbanks that they did not have. Then get enough sports, and go D1 so that you can attract out of state students especially with the med school being built. There are only certain amount of scholarships in the northwest for a very few schools there. If you want to be a doctor or nurse? You can go to UA on a scholarship. UA do have an agreement with U. of Washington in Seattle right now for med students, but Alaska and Washington are kinda far.
