FORUM INFORMATION:
Please post any questions you have for our guests and/or each other concerning possible solutions to our energy crisis in Alaska.  What can WE, as students do, to help solve this?
The expectation is to hear what students feel are the critical issues of Alaska, and discuss what we might do about them, with experts in the fields.  Forums will be monitored by many interested people, including our own Commissioner of Education; so please keep language appropriate and professional, but also express yourself freely and with passion.  We look forward to lively discussions.
