A Gift from the Heart Preserves Danish Studies
As if saving lives wasn’t enough, these UW physicians saved Danish studies at the College of Letters & Science with a gift from the heart.
The Impact of Gifts
State-of-the-Art Nursing Building Exemplifies the Power of Many
Connecting nursing students to state-of-the art facilities just got a lot easier at the new School of Nursing.
Pattersons Strengthen Commitment to School of Education
James and Susan Patterson strengthen their commitment to literacy and teaching at the School of Education for maximum impact.
The Legacy of Dr. and Mrs. Hugh A. Kennedy Lives on at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
Dr. Hugh and Margaret Kennedy were Wisconsin natives who moved to Corpus Christi, Texas, in the 1940s. They never had children of their own, yet they inspired their families and, now, new generations of physicians, to reach for lives of meaning. The Kennedy Scholars in the School of Medicine and Public Health are a diverse and impressive group.
Sarah Lowery- Achieve my Dream
I am so grateful to be a recipient of the Gladys Emerson Cook Scholarship, Barbara M. Hanson Brown Community Service Award, and Merit-Based Study Abroad Scholarship. It has also allowed me the financial freedom to achieve my dream of studying abroad for a semester in Rome, Italy, and soon to achieve my dream of obtaining a degree in Community & Nonprofit Leadership.
Chemistry Instrument Center Gives Students State-of-the-Art Access, Training, and Research Support
A gift from former UW-Madison chemistry professor Paul Bender and his wife, along with Bender’s expertise and hard work, helped build the Chemistry Instrument Center into a premiere facility. Today, students conducting research enjoy open access to the center’s facilities and the staff’s expertise.
Family’s Legacy Professorship Strengthens Danish Studies
Dr. Paul Madsen, professor emeritus in urology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, and his wife, Dr. Renate Madsen, recently honored their family’s Danish and German heritage by establishing the Paul and Renate Madsen Professorship in Danish in the College of Letters & Science. This Professorship will encourage scholarship and research to preserve the university’s historic strengths in Danish studies.
Ben Davis- Invaluable to my Growth
The scholarships I have received from the School of Music and the Raymond F. Dvorak Scholarship have been very important for my family. The financial assistance provided through these scholarships really have been of much use in reducing the net cost of my schooling and that has allowed me to be able to continue experiencing all of these great things that I have been able to do up here at UW, so I am extremely thankful!
