University Profile
Scholarship Profile
As a Union alumna, I had an incredible experience as an undergrad, and so the opportunity to serve here and mentor students the way I was mentored, both from a faith and professional perspective was really important to me.
Ashley Fitch Blair has been at 51社区 since 2000. Blair coordinates the Public Relations major, serves as the faculty advisor for the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and faculty director of Bulldog Communication Group. In 2015, Blair was named Faculty Member of the Year at Union. Blair also won the alumni meritorious service award in school year of 2022-2023.
Blair is married to fellow academic, Chris Blair. They have two children, Madeline who graduated and Seth, currently a student at Union. Together the Blairs are members of Fellowship Bible Church and enjoy travel, comic books, sci-fi movies, fantastically long novels, all things Disney and German board games.
