Iḷisaġvik -- a place to learn

The light gets a little bit longer and brighter each day. We should see the actual sun in about a week or so. Ironically, when the sun comes out, the temperatures drop even more. February is the coldest month, which seems strange to me. You'd think it'd be December and January where there is no light.

Temperature: -17
Wind Speed: 13 mph
Windchill: -40

 

All of the signs at school are in English and Inupiat.  

 Iḷisaġvik -- a place to learn

It's also the name of the college in Barrow.

My Iḷisaġvik!
