UGL Unicco Joins NACUBO Corporate Circle

NEWTON, Mass.-(Business Wire)-May 6, 2008 - UGL Unicco(sm), a subsidiary of United Group Limited (UGL), has increased its support of the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) to become a Corporate Circle member. This, the highest level of corporate support for the college administrators and financial officers organization, demonstrates UGL Unicco's commitment to advancing NACUBO's goals in higher education.

"UGL Unicco has long been an active member of NACUBO, participating in its conferences and volunteering to support its goals," commented UGL Unicco Vice President Randy Ledbetter. "It is appropriate that we build on this involvement by moving to the highest level since it benefits the company, NACUBO, and the scores of colleges and universities that we count as customers."

The NACUBO Corporate Circle is comprised of a select group of fewer than 20 companies, out of its 300 corporate members, that have made substantial resource commitments to the organization. In addition to recognition by NACUBO, representatives from firms in the Corporate Circle are also invited to meet with other higher education thought-leaders, contribute content to NACUBO programs, and participate in activities affecting future NACUBO initiatives.

"Corporate Circle membership brings together top companies that are committed to serving higher education and advancing professionalism and best practices," said Bill Dillon, Vice President for Business Development, NACUBO. "We're pleased to have UGL Unicco, a company that has served our market since before NACUBO was founded, step up into this leadership role."
