Be a difference maker
When it came to unearthing an entirely new species of man, Wisconsin made a difference. When eliminating a crippling bone disease looked impossible, Wisconsin thought differently. When only four quarters of football wouldn’t do, Wisconsin dared to be different. Now it’s your turn. Be a difference maker for the university by showing your support. Everyone who contributes will help to maintain the UW as a world-class institution that pushes the boundaries of possible and makes a difference in the lives of people throughout the world.
