The UTPA Department of Intercollegiate Athletics announced Wednesday the establishment of the Bronc Business program, according to a press release.

The Bronc Bussiness program aims to identify and promote local businesses that support UTPA and want to be involved with the University.

To take part, businesses must support the Bronc Athletic Fund and agree to provide special offers to current University students, faculty, staff and alumni.

The Athletic Department plans on celebrating Bronc businesses during home UTPA baseball games during the upcoming season and receive signage and recognition through numerous University Athletic mediums.
