Iḷisaġvik College has purchased land to build its long-planned campus in Utqiaġvik, according to KNBA.

The college is Alaska's only tribal college. It serves the North Slope Borough. The land purchase moves the institution closer to constructing a permanent campus facility.

The location of the parcel, the cost, and the construction timeline were not immediately available.

The college currently operates without a permanent campus. The purchase represents a step toward establishing a dedicated facility for the institution.
