Awards

Heroic Spot Award

Kim Brown, Utah Valley University — UVU Cabinet & Digital Media Department - September, 2025

Assistant Professor Bryan Sansom received the UVU Heroic Spot Award and a formal letter of appreciation from the UVU Cabinet for outstanding courage, compassion, and leadership during the September 10, 2025 campus crisis.
During the event, Sansom safeguarded his students, coordinated directly with SWAT teams, guided evacuations for hundreds of individuals, and assisted law enforcement drone operations. His calm, decisive actions under extreme pressure reflected deep dedication to student safety and institutional integrity.
Following the event, Sansom continued to support student recovery by maintaining communication, offering emotional guidance, and helping restore classroom confidence. The UVU Cabinet presented him with a Minky Couture blanket as a symbol of gratitude for his strength, humanity, and unwavering service to the UVU community.

Spot Award

Kim Brown UVU - March 3, 2023

It is my understanding that the Spot award is meant to honor those who go “beyond what is normally expected of an employee.” I would like to submit the name Bryan Sansom for consideration as he personifies this concept to a T.
