The University of Alaska cannot figure out "Accounting and budget Management 101" what makes you think they have the ability to do anything other than have a research department, aquire grants/self fund/ and pray somehow it gives them Kudos.

My point entirely, our "Not for Profit hospitals" ought to be the ones using their overflowing coffers to fund the next wave of cancer research, instead its our tax payer funded Uni system that must bear the R&D cost.

By some miracle if UAA advanced the art, guess what the kind and generous souls at Catholic owned providence would implement them and charge you 400k for the means and methods developed by your taxpayer money.
