“About a decade ago, I began my freshman year at Union believing that my future held limitless possibilities, but I did not have a career destination in mind or a plan to get there. Today, I am practicing corporate law in Atlanta and assisting U.S. and international clients with multi-billion dollar mergers and acquisitions. I believe the four years I spent at Union gave me the vision and direction that I needed to develop and pursue my professional goals.”
Union’s fourth core value is “future-directed.” That involves an unending cycle of improvements and commitments to students who are not yet with us—students like you!
Union has invested more than $90 million in campus improvements during the past decade, including White Hall, a state-of-the-art science building that houses the biology and chemistry departments, and the school of nursing. Our Fesmire Field House has a 9,300 square-foot turf room as well as a training room and locker rooms for baseball, softball and men’s & women’s soccer.
Up next: a new building to house the School of Pharmacy. You can now finish Union’s wellestablished, highly regarded pre-pharmacy program and continue immediately to a Doctor of Pharmacy program without leaving campus!
Union offers two major campus residence life areas: the Heritage Complex (where most freshmen live) and the four “quads” known as Watters, Hurt, Ayers and Grace. Built in 2008, Watters, Hurt, Ayers and Grace complexes include semi-private bathrooms, washers and dryers in each room, and first-floor safe rooms with reinforced walls and heavy steel doors. No matter the location, every student at Union has a private bedroom, kitchen facilities and a living room shared with three other residents. This investment is not just in bricks and mortar – it’s an investment in you.
