Roebuck 鈥楤ucky鈥� has Served University Since 2015

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥敵扇耸悠碘�檚 鈥減awsitively鈥� lovable mascot, Roebuck 鈥淏ucky,鈥� is retiring on Aug. 24, after serving the University for six years. Bucky quickly became a campus favorite as he toddled and slobbered his way into the hearts of students, the community and athletics.

鈥淭he addition of Roebuck to the University family instantly created excitement around campus and enhanced the game day experience,鈥� observed GWU Vice President for Athletics, Chuck Burch. 鈥淩oebuck was immensely popular with our fans, young and old alike. All of us in the Athletics Department are appreciative of Brooke Greene (Roebuck鈥檚 caretaker) and her family for the sacrifices they made to make Roebuck available and their willingness to share him with us.鈥�

First introduced at the home opener football game in 2015, Bucky was named in honor of Mike Roebuck, an avid runner, cyclist, and triathlete. Mike had worked at 成人视频 for nearly 20 years in roles like assistant athletics director for Academic Services and director of Financial Aid. Mike passed away unexpectedly on March 4, 2015, yet his name still lived on when Roebuck was introduced.

Bucky enjoys spending time on campus and cheering on the Runnin鈥� Bulldogs. Some of his favorite things to do are greet students and receive ear scratches. Aliah Price, 鈥�19, and Bryan Morales-Gonzalez, 鈥�20, said everyone loved seeing Roebuck waddle toward them. 鈥淩oebuck was awesome to work with and brought a smile to everyone鈥檚 face any time they saw him on campus,鈥� Morales-Gonzalez offered.

鈥淪eeing Roebuck on campus brought a sense of zen to students,鈥� Price added. 鈥淭here was never a moment that students didn鈥檛 stop during their treks to class to pet him or even snap a selfie. He brought calm to the storm college can be.鈥�   

Roebuck also sat patiently for numerous photo shoots and starred in several videos during his post as the official live mascot. His videos always received the highest engagement on social media channels as he celebrated various holidays, promoted healthy practices during COVID-19, and detailed campus life and other topics. Sarah Bragdon, 鈥�21, appeared in a video with Roebuck that featured the best things about the spring semester. 鈥淗e is the cutest mascot and I had a great time going to the winter formal with him in the video,鈥� she shared.

Michaela Bissinger, 鈥�19, was in the same video. 鈥淩oebuck was without a doubt one of my highlights,鈥� she said. 鈥淗e was always so excited to be around fellow Runnin鈥� Bulldogs and even more if there was pizza involved! He’s the best mascot!鈥�

鈥淚 love Roebuck,鈥� asserted 成人视频 Student Body President Jada Newton, 鈥�21. 鈥淗e represents and brings so much to the 成人视频 campus wherever he goes. I love seeing him on campus and at football games. He gets everyone excited and proud to be a Runnin鈥� Bulldog.鈥�

Ezekiel Martin, 鈥�19, works at 成人视频 as an admissions counselor. In a video about Valentine鈥檚 day, he and Roebuck were shown working out in the fitness center. 鈥淩oebuck, keep up the great work, big fella,鈥� Martin advised. 鈥淏ulldogs forever! I always enjoyed our workouts together and helping you find a Valentine. Roebuck, you brought life to this campus, and I enjoyed our study breaks, too.鈥�
