While it's been a little more than a month after the drastic events that have occurred in Charlottesville, Virginia, do you continue to have questions about this occurrence? This event is not about taking sides but rather we want to educate you and state THE FACTS as well as hear your opinions about THE FACTS! Why did such violent acts happened? Do you feel that the situation was handled well? Imagine that YOU were at the scene; what would be your reaction as well as the impact this would have on you? These are the various questions we will be touching upon and remember no need to have previous knowledge as we will provide a summary of what happened. Just come on by to Bronner (Smith) House, eat, and enjoy some nice small talk! Tomorrow, Tuesday September 19th from 6:30-7:30 p.m.

SHOW Up and show out to Union College's first ever Carribean Carnival next week!! Updates are soon to come about the details for the event but MARK YOUR CALENDARS 💃🏽🕺🏾🎊🎉🎊🎊
