The University of Alaska should invest in an entrepreneurial degree program as we talk over and over again about diversifying the economy.  There has to be a serious investment by the State if we are serious about wanting to encourage innovation and investment.  Encouraging Alaskans who are already here, because they like the lifestyle and climate, to be the innovators would be far more exciting and realistic if the education and atmosphere was supportive.  Startups like Triverus and Seutonius (above) should be mined for their input.  It takes money to make money and squeezing any sort of support structure from the State to make diversification doesn't seem to be a reality at this point in time.
