Family Tradition and Sweet Memories

This weekend my mom found some of my grandmother's things from her days at UU and following her graduation. I thought it was pretty appropriate to find this the weekend of UU's homecoming. I unfortunately was unable to attend because of work, but it all brought back sweet memories of my grandmother and my time at UU. My grandparents met at Union and had a part in helping me decide to go to school there. How sweet to think that my grandparents went to school there before me and while the school had moved since they attended, it always made me think about them as I walked the halls and through the campus. I am grateful they were both able to attend my graduation making it even more special to me. Attending Union has become somewhat of a family tradition with my mom going back to school to get her Masters there and now my sister-in-law is in grad school there, too. Who knows what the future brings with future generations from our family possibly attending good ole UU!


Another family tradition of joining Chi Omega started with my grandmother. What a special bond to share! She and my mom were both able to attend my initiation.

The Unionite looks a little different, doesn't it!?!
