Bravo Bear was created by the Department of Exercise and Sport Science to honor and celebrate extraordinary employees at UCA who consistently go above and beyond in supporting the growth and development of our institution.
Each month, Bravo Bear will make its way across campus, visiting faculty and staff who have been nominated by their peers. This traveling recognition serves as a reminder of the dedication, care, and excellence that strengthen our UCA community.
If you would like to nominate someone for the Bravo Bear, please send nominations to exss@uca.edu with the name and the extraordinary contributions to UCA. Another Bravo Bear will be announced every month. The Bravo Bear statue was donated by Jessica Underwood (CETAL); name plate was donated by Billie’s Trophies; and, certificate and coaster donated by individual members of EXSS faculty.
