Union University is a loose federation of Union College along with a number of graduate schools, founded in 1873 and located in the Albany metropolitan area of New York State.
It originally consisted of Union along with Albany Law School, Albany Medical College and the Dudley Observatory and was incorporated by an act of the New York State Legislature on April 10, 1873.[1][2]
Union University founded Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences in 1881.[3]
The motto on its seal is In necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas, in omnibus caritas (English: Unity in necessary matters, freedom in doubtful matters, charity toward all).
Since 2018, the Chancellor of Union University, who is also President of Union College, has been David R. Harris.[4]
According to Albany Law School, as of 2021, the university exists "in name only" and "each member institution has its own governing board and operates its own institutions independently." There were also discussions about "the continued viability of the Union University relationship."[5]
