Bobcat Senior Honorary is an organization that evokes pride, honor, and tradition. Since 1922, 13 outstanding seniors have been chosen each year to continue the legacy of serving the University of Arizona. Acceptance into Bobcats is a life-long commitment of support and service to the university and the Bobcat organization.
The purpose of the Bobcat Alumni community is to encourage all members of the Bobcats to be "Eternally Vigilant" in support of the university, to strengthen the organization by organizing events for Bobcat alumni, and to oversee the activities of the Bobcat Senior Honorary.

Donate
All Bobcats are being called upon to help support the Bobcats organization with some level of financial contribution. As part of our "Eternal Vigilance" pledge, our organization should be the model of giving financially to the university.
While individual circumstance dictates the level of giving, we recommend each member of Bobcats pledge to give at least $113 annually as a contribution to help support the efforts of the 13 undergraduate Bobcats and their mission to serve the university in various capacities.
