Our Mascot
BAU’s mascot is a dolphin to represent the values and the meaning embedded in our Coat of Arms.
From time immemorial, in many cultures’, dolphins have been celebrated and admired by humans.
Dolphins are unique creatures that strive to achieve in any habitat they choose or are thrust into. They are highly intelligent mammals that have achieved perfect adaptation as sea creatures.
Just like dolphins, we in the BAU Community strive to be Adaptable, Agile, Intelligent, Fast, Sociable, Curious, and Friendly to all.
