Stories of U is a Mellon Foundation-funded grant project inviting members of the Union community to explore who they want to be through the power of reflection. Our goal is for all members of the Union community to come together and make meaning, as we find purpose, share stories, and explore the transformative power of a Union education.

Select areas in the Mandeville and Schaffer Library will display artworks requested by Union College professors for use in teaching. Coming late September 2023! Image above: Chitra Ganesh, Sultana’s Dream: City in Broad Daylight, 2018.

This exhibit illustrates the extraordinary life of Union College alumnus John Bigelow (1817-1911, UC 1835) who played a pivotal role in shaping the Reconstruction Era, the Gilded Age, and the Progressive Era through his roles as an American author, diplomat, lawyer, philanthropist, and distinguished man of letters.
