On August 30, more than 500 members of the Utica College community came together for the first annual Unity Walk, a celebration of diversity and community on campus.
The day began with a sign-making workshop, where students, faculty, and staff were invited to create colorful signs that define what unity means to them, followed by a one-mile walk that spanned campus.
“While others lean toward division today, I challenge every member of the UC community to lean toward inclusiveness and unity,” said President Laura Casamento in her address to the crowd. “That’s why we’re here.”
