Dear Friends,

This website has been designed to assist Union University minority students in a variety of ways. Mrs. Jacqueline Taylor has provided wonderful leadership in the development of this site. She also serves as chair of the University Minority Task Team, who along with the Intercultural Competencies Committee, chaired by Professor Roland Porter, have helped move the University forward in our Union 2010 commitments.

The Union 2010 planning document states that the University will seek to nurture an ongoing commitment to the Great commandment, which compels our community to recognize that a love for God requires a love for all humanity. A follow-up goal states that the University will create a climate that fosters the development of intercultural competencies in faculty, staff, and students.

The establishment of this website is another positive step as we seek to be faithful to these goals. I pray that God will help us all as we seek to live out the implications of the words of Jesus in the Great Commandment on a daily basis on the Union University campus.

Faithfully,

David S. Dockery, President
