UC's Campus Theme:

Exploring Key Issues


Campus Theme 2012-13: Our Common FutureOne of Utica College's most enjoyable traditions is the "Campus Theme," a year-long opportunity for all members of the College community to explore issues of great social importance from a variety of viewpoints.  Events sponsored by other campus organizations, offices, or programs may all participate in and be recognized for "theme related" activities.  The theme committee reviews proposals for theme sponsored events and contributes, as approved, to the funding of events that foster the campus theme.   Faculty, staff, and students are invited to participate in and suggest:
  • Public events, including presentations by nationally recognized public figures
  • Classroom discussions
  • FILMS@UC  
  • All-College forums
