Brown University is proud to celebrate the dedication, talent and impact of our staff members. Each year, we come together for BEAR Day to honor those reaching significant milestones and those selected for the University's Excellence Awards.

The Bear Jamboree is a festive Learning, Development & Engagement networking event filled with networking opportunities, games, prizes and refreshments. Connect with colleagues you don’t always get to see or to make some new connections across campus. This event is intended to allow staff to unwind, warm up, and be in community together before the new semester is in full swing.

A beloved Brown tradition, Staff Development Day (SDD) offers opportunities for professional and personal growth for all staff, with on-campus programming and virtual offerings available to support remote and hybrid participants.
