The Brown Bear Awards
In 1946 the Brown Alumni Association adopted a recommendation
from the Brown Club of New York that a Brown Bear Award be given
by the association to recognize "outstanding and wide-ranging
personal service rendered the University over a period of years."
Each year, an anonymous committee reviews nominations from alumni
and staff and selects one to three recipients. Winners of the
Brown Bear Award have usually distinguished themselves as volunteers
for Brown in more than one area over a period of many years.
