We Take Pride in Being UNC Bears
In fact, you won’t find a bigger, bolder group of graduates than the network of UNC alumni.
We may live in different cities, be graduates of different class years, and pursue different careers, but together we are UNC's Bear Network and we believe in the power of giving back.

UNC Monthly
Celebrating the Class of Spring 2024
Earlier this month, the University of Northern Colorado (UNC) graduated more than 1,200 Bears from 46 Colorado counties, 45 states and 21 countries. A whopping 43% of graduates were the first in their families to graduate from college, making it the graduating class with the highest percentage of first-generation students, as well as the most diverse class, in the past five years. Take a closer look at the journey of five of this year’s incredible graduates, one from each of UNC’s colleges.
Building a Bear Legacy: The Antuna Family
When Kevin, ’95, and Amy, ’96, Antuna decided to attend UNC, all they knew was that they wanted to improve their lives. Now, Kevin and Amy’s children have both graduated from UNC and launched careers in their chosen fields. While the couple didn’t know they would be embarking on a journey that bettered their future children’s lives, they’re proud of all their UNC education has enabled them to do.
UNC Student Goes Behind the Scenes with Bears Give Back
This year on April 11, Michelle Sarahang, ’23, had a special opportunity to go behind the scenes of this year’s Bears Give Back crowdfunding campaign. Through her experience, she learned how much time and effort goes into a fundraising campaign, but also how much support UNC and its students have from their community.
