Pete Kelly and the rest of the Fairbanks Republican delegation do not exactly have a stellar track record for supporting UAF or the University of Alaska system. I dislike making partisan distinctions for university advocacy, partially because my personal political beliefs are not well represented by either major political party and I do not think partisan politics have much use in most classroom discussions. But, at least in the Fairbanks districts, the Democrat delegation has been the only reliable defender of the university system lately and I have not seen particular bias toward UAF over UAA, UAS, and the community campuses.
