Rio Salado has decided on a new mascot-- The Rio Waves!
Now it's time to help us name it!

We’re seeking a name that represents our unique brand as pioneers, relates to our name – Rio Salado (Salt River), and represents us as a college that finds innovative solutions and cuts through barriers.

The mascot represents educational access for all through flexibility, adaptability, affordability and accountability.

The Rio Wave is gender-neutral, friendly, helpful, and most of all serves as an ambassador for all Rio students, staff and faculty.

Please submit your gender-neutral name suggestion for our new mascot to: mascot@riosalado.edu by midnight, April 20.
