Events

What I Want To Be Day is a fun day of educational activities ideal for elementary school students from grades 1-8.

Throughout the morning, students will be informed on a host of fun and exciting educational topics; while nobody expects the students to predict what they will be when they grow up, we do anticipate that they will think about the different options and the importance of education in the process. They will also meet Brown student-athletes to learn about the importance of balancing academics and extracurricular activities. Each student will receive an educational packet to follow along with the presenters and to bring back and use in their learning experience.

And then they can release all of their energy while cheering for the Brown Women’s Basketball team!
