Celebrating Brown Employees

Brown University celebrates staff in many ways each year, especially on BEAR Day where we all come together to celebrate staff reaching a milestone in years of service as well as those who have been selected for an Excellence Award.
The January Bear Jamboree is a festive Talent Development 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.
Brown’s beloved Staff Development Day (SDD) tradition is offering professional and personal growth and other engagement opportunities on campus along with some virtual offerings to accommodate our remote and hybrid staff.
