Arkansas Union Invites Students, Faculty and Staff to Join Annual Union Day Celebration
The Arkansas Union will hold its annual Union Day celebration from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 18, at the Union Mall. Union Day is an opportunity for departments, offices, and services located in the Union to share their information, make connections with students, and learn about different tenants in the building. This year's Union Day theme is "Back to the 90s," so participants can expect healthy doses of '90s-themed prizes and snacks.
During Union Day, participants will have their choice of free food and prizes, and an opportunity to enter a raffle to win one of the grand prizes provided by the Arkansas Union. Students will also get a chance to network with various departments and organizations located in the Union and find opportunities to get involved on campus. During the event, a feedback table will be available for attendees to share their concerns and wishes regarding the Union and its services.
Previously, Union Day earned the Arkansas Union an award from the Association of College Unions International, and received positive feedback from hundreds of students and staff. The Arkansas Union is a department within the Division of Student Affairs.
