EDUCATION

The first schools in Alaska were established by Russians during the 1820s, but the school system did not expand significantly until the region was organized as a U.S. territory in 1912. Education in Alaska is largely state-funded (and thus local school districts suffer cutbacks when state oil royalties drop).

The University of Alaska (1917) has upper-level campuses at Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau and a network of branch campuses and education centers. Sheldon Jackson College (1878) was Alaska 's first institution of higher learning.
