Representatives from more than 30 highly selective liberal arts colleges gathered to discuss diversity initiatives on their campuses.

"CHAS will provide us with opportunities to bring students, faculty and administrators together to learn about best practices," Ainlay said. "We will continue working with CHAS and other outside organizations that can help us improve Union's campus culture." 

The report of the Presidential Commission on Building a Better Community is expected to be issued this term.
