Rowdy Games
Spring 2024 - More information coming soon!
While work is the priority at any office, sometimes employees just need to let off a little steam. Research shows that there is an increased risk associated with long periods of sitting. Whether you’re looking for a fun team-building activity, or you want to engage with new UTSA employees, the UTSA Staff Olympics is a great way to build team camaraderie and show off your trivia knowledge and athletic abilities. Plus, it allows for a much-needed break from all that hard work.
Great Staff Appreciation
May 2024 - More information coming soon!
