You are Union: The Campaign for Our Third Century

Brochure coverUnion College stands at the crossroads of change. Our Strategic Plan gives us a blueprint for achieving our distinctive educational mission and ushering in a new era in our longstanding tradition of excellence. To support the ambitious vision outlined in the Plan, the Board of Trustees approved an expansion of the You are Union capital campaign, setting a new fundraising goal of $250 million by the year 2012.

Our ultimate success in securing the College's exciting future hinges on the collective resources, both intellectual and financial, that we commit to this endeavor. The generosity of our alumni and friends—of each of you—will carry us forward. Your support will make a difference. You are uniquely positioned to shape Union’s future, just as Union has shaped your past.

After all, You are Union.

Forging a Stronger Union.

The country’s leading foundations are taking notice of the quality, range and depth of our offerings, extending their growing support and accolades.

So, too, are our nation’s young people. The most talented students are eagerly seeking admission to Union as the preferred place to be for undergraduate work.

But as strong as we are, we can be stronger. Union is poised at a critical juncture. We must seize the moment and the momentum and boost our reputation for excellence through decisive action.

We must guarantee that our faculty and students can reach their fullest potential and that the larger community will continue to benefit from the contributions of broadly educated, intelligent, creative Union graduates. We turn to you, the stewards of Union, to help usher in a new era.

You are… part of the Union culture, and it is part of you.

You are… the future of the College, just as it is indelibly part of your past.

You are… critical to its success; no one else can take your place or play the role that you alone can.

You can help carry on the rich tradition of pioneering excellence that is at the heart of the Union experience.
