Major Recognitions

* U.S.News & World Report: Union is ranked as one of only 80 schools nationally “where the faculty has an unusual commitment to undergraduate teaching.” This new category debuted in 2010. For a second consecutive year, Union was listed among 77 “schools to watch” across the nation. Overall, the magazine ranks Union 16th among master’s universities in the South, which means Union has been classi-fied as a Top Tier institution each year since 1997. Editors also identify Union as an “A+ option for serious B students.”

* Princeton Review: Princeton Review ranks Union among the top 141 schools in the Southeast. Nationally, 640 schools received this regional ranking, which is only accorded to about 25% of the nation’s colleges and universities.

* Forbes: In its second annual “America’s Best Colleges” edition, Forbes editors evaluated 600 of the nation’s 4,000 colleges and universities based on the quality of the education they provide, and how much their students achieve. Union ranked 278th on the Forbes list -- up four places from last year -- and was one of only two institutions in Tennessee west of Nashville selected for inclusion.

* America’s 100 Best College Buys: An objective and independent research company surveys more than a thousand U.S. colleges and universities each year, then analyzes the information to find out which schools offer the best education for the dollar based upon academic performance indicators and comparative costs. Union University has been among schools identified as “America’s 100 Best College Buys” since 1998.

* President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll: Initiated in 2006, this award recognizes colleges and universities nationwide that support innovative and effective community service and service-learning programs. Union is also one of only 160 institutions named to the list for three straight years, and one of only six four-year schools in Tennessee with that distinction.

* College Access and Opportunity Guide: Union is listed among 220 U.S. col-leges “committed to serving and supporting today’s first-generation, low-income and traditionally underserved college-bound students.” Union is one of only four Tennes-see institutions so honored.

* Colleges of Distinction: Union and the other schools chosen for inclusion in this guide exhibit four distinctives of superior colleges and universities: engaged students, great teaching, vibrant communities and successful outcomes.

* Templeton Foundation: Union is listed in the Foundation’s guide entitled Col-leges that Encourage Character Development. Schools included in this listing have “exemplary programs, presidents, and colleges and universities that inspire students to lead ethical and civic-minded lives.”

The 2010 Union University men’s soccer team is looking to return to contending for league �tles a�er missing the conference tournament for the first �me since their inaugural sea-son of 1998.

Union lost their only all-conference player and leading goal scorer from last season in Paul Turner, along with their second leading goal scorer in Rafael Carvalho. However, head coach Clovis Simas returns several players that have adjusted to the college game and will begin to contribute to this season. He has brought in several newcomers to the program that will be able to provide an immediate impact.

The top returners include Dejan Kos�c, Diego Santos, Alysson Mohl and Kemal Gogic. Kos-�c, Mohl and Gogic each started at least 11 matches last season and the three combined for five goals. Santos is returning a�er si�ng out last season.

Four newcomers highlight the new class including Su�on Shults, Brian Castro, Luka Perkovic and Dragan Stanojevic.

The senior class is made up of eight players. David Cresswell, Mike Phelan, Dennis Regalado, Ian Allan, Jared Carpenter, Jordan Thompson and Robert Lynn.

Ten juniors complete the list of upperclassmen. They include Rainer Hauss, William Murray, Jose Marroquin, Jeremy Osborn, James Landam, Chris Waugh, Nate Peterson, Sut-ton Shults, Dejan Kos�c and Luke Foshee.

The sophomore class also has 10 members including Mar�n Godwin, Alysson Mohl, Jacob Long, Kemal Gogic, Cooper Rawls, Evan Hare, Guilherme Reis, Guilherme Elvira, Joseph Moser and Taylor Mayo.

Those playing their first season of college soccer include 10 players. The freshman class is made up of Daniel Decker, David Alsup, Cody Styx, Krister Andreassen, Luka Perkovic, Brian Castro, Caleb Mills, Dragan Stanojevic, Diego Santos and Timothy Johnson.

About the NAIAThe purpose of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) is to promote the education and development of students through intercollegiate athletic participation. Member institutions, although varied and diverse, share a common commitment to high standards and to the principle that participation in athletics serves as an integral part of the total educational process.The NAIA embraces the concept of the student and recognizes the importance of the individuality of each member institution, the value of the conferences and Association of Independent Institutions (A.I.I.) structure, and the benefits of membership in a national association.

The NAIA supports gender equity. Gender equity is an atmosphere and reality where fair distribution of overall athletic opportunity and resources, proportionate to enrollment, are available to women and men, and where no student-athlete, coach or athletics administrator is discriminated against in any way in the athletics program. That is to say, an athletics program is gender-equitable when the men’s sports program would be pleased to accept as its own the overall participation opportunities and resources currently allocated to the women’s sports program and vice versa.

Advancing sport with innovative changeThe NAIA has 50,000 student-athletes participating at nearly 300 member colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada. Divided into 25 conferences and the Association of Independent Institutions (A.I.I.), the NAIA offers 23 championships in 13 sports.

Since 1937, the NAIA has continued a long tradition of pushing the envelope and making a positive difference in the lives of students, coaches and parents. The Champions of Character program is the latest cutting-edge addition to the NAIA’s proud history of innovation (www.championsofcharacter.org).

Through Champions of Character, the NAIA seeks to create an environment in which every student-athlete, coach, official and spectator are committed to the true spirit of competition through the five core values: respect, integrity, responsibility, servant leadership and sportsmanship.

NAIA at a Glance• Nearly 300 member colleges and universities • 23 national championships • 650,000 students • First to include black colleges and students in championships • First to include women in national championships • First to develop system-wide character initiative with substantive programming
