Members of the Union College community – including a number of Capital Region alumni and friends – kicked off the “You Are Union” capital campaign on Wednesday, April 27, in a celebration at College Park Hall.
The $200 million campaign will advance the College by supporting a number of initiatives including Converging Technologies, residential life, international programs, scholarships and faculty excellence.
The kickoff featured the premiere of a campaign video and a group portrait of the Union College Capital District Family.
Three alumni trustees are co-chairing the campaign – Mark Walsh '76, entrepreneur and venture capitalist; Frank Messa '73, senior vice president of Ayco Co.; and John Wold '38, scientist, businessman and former Congressman (honorary co-chair).
