2025 ACC Unity Tour
Six members of the University of Miami athletic department are headed to Alabama on Thursday to take part in the 2025 Unity Tour, an event put on annually by the Atlantic Coast Conference.
The Unity Tour, which will commence on Juneteenth and run through June 22, will include stopes in Montgomery, Selma and Tuskegee, Alabama.

This transformative and educational tour was created to empower student-athletes through meaningful, real-world learning opportunities. During the weekend, members across the ACC’s 18 institutions will have the opportunity to explore history and learn about culture and community engagement from local leaders.

The 2025 Unity Tour is centered around the theme: Legacy of Unity: Elevation, Equity and Empowerment.
