ULC In the News
A media destination for political forums, high-profile speakers and community involvement
The Union League Club of Chicago (ULC) is not only a place that enriches members' lives, but it is also a place that improves the world. With a motto of "commitment to community and country," the ULC is a place that educates through forums, enriches the lives of Chicago youth through its support of three foundations, supports America's troops through its various military organizations, and maintains a voice in local, state and federal government. In fact, through the work of the ULC, the 17th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution was created as well as the development of the Chicago Harold Washington Library, and the Columbian Exposition coming to Chicago. Below are just a few of the earned media placements the ULC received in 2012:
