The Brown University Band is the official band of Brown University. Like all Ivy League bands except Cornell's, it is a scatter band.[2] The Brown Band began performing on ice skates in 1970, and claims to be the world's best (and, actually, only) ice skating scatter band.[3] It is the source of much of Brown's school spirit, and often appears as a public representation of Brown to the Providence community and to other universities. The Band is present at all home and away football games, various basketball and hockey games, as well as Commencement and other special events each year. It receives funding from Brown's Undergraduate Finance Board.
