🎲 Casino Night is always a good bet! 🎰

One of Cleary’s most popular student events of the year brought plenty of fun to Cleary Commons! Students tried their luck at a variety of table games, with Cleary staff and student leaders stepping in as dealers for the night.

No real money on the line—just plenty of chances to “bet,” win prizes and spend a great night together. 🃏✨

Thanks to everyone who helped make Casino Night another memorable night at Cleary! ❤️💙🐾

Dean of Undergraduate Studies Kelly Genei shares a moment with Early College student Aria Mudge. At Cleary, personalized support isn't just something we talk about — it's part of the everyday experience.

🏆 Gold looks good on the Cougars!

For the second year in a row, Cleary University Athletics has earned the NAIA Champions of Character Five-Star Gold Award — the highest level of recognition — with a perfect score of 100 points! Cleary is one of only five colleges in Michigan to receive the national Gold distinction for 2025–26.

The award recognizes more than what happens in competition. It celebrates Cleary’s commitment to integrity, respect, responsibility, sportsmanship, servant leadership and academic success.

We’re proud of our student-athletes, coaches and Athletics team for representing what it means to be a Cleary Cougar — on the field, in the classroom and in our community. 🔴🔵🐾
