The nearly tangible school pride that exists on the UW-Madison campus, and across the Wisconsin alumni community is the greatest asset the university possesses. This comradery unites current undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and alumni.

Simply being a UW-Madison student affords me the opportunity to relate to accomplished professionals in a wide range of fields, simply based on the fact we are both badgers for life.

We have a capitol building that is identical to the US capitol building in Washington DC... but it's two inches shorter. It's pretty neat, but in reality, our entire campus is unique. How many schools are located on an isthmus? I'll answer that: not that many.
