What is UNITAS?
Unitas fosters community and diversity at Union by supporting groups and individuals who create events and educational opportunities that foster both. Students, staff, administrators, and faculty who have new ideas about how to increase and celebrate diversity and promotion of community at Union may apply for a Unitas grant to make their idea become a reality. Membership is open to all members of the Union community.
Unitas hosts an annual reception for new faculty and staff each winter and honors a student at the end of each academic year with the Unitas Annual Student Diversity Leadership Award.
In partnership with the Alumni Relations Office, Unitas took great pleasure in celebrating diversity and inclusiveness of Union College by sponsoring several events during the 2008 Homecoming and Family Weekend, including an Alumni Career Panel, the inaugural ceremonial dinner honoring Union Alumni, and a Multicultural Affairs Brunch.
