Unity College says it plans to give employees bonuses of up to $2,500 amid changes that have led to record enrollment. Two years ago, Unity announced that it was moving away from a typical, two-semester model focused on its campus in Waldo County, and would instead transition to hybrid learning. The move led to pushback from some students, employees and alumni, but President Melik Peter Khoury said it led to enrollment growing from about 800 students to about 3,500.
