UW-Madison Parent Program Calendar 2016-17 2016–2017 Calendar & Handbook for Badger Families A Welcome from the Chancellor e’re happy to have you join the UW–Madison family! WLike many of you, I am the parent of a college student. We all want to do everything we can to help our young scholars succeed. Sometimes it’s a challenge to know how to do that. The Parent Program is your partner in this process. It provides resources, advice, and dialogue on the questions and concerns that are bound to arise during your student’s time on campus. Through special events, timely communications, online chats, and a dynamic website, the Parent Program will help you play a positive role in your student’s academic and personal success. This calendar provides useful information on when students will be focusing on exams, when they’ll be looking forward to the big game, and what’s happening at the university and around Madison the next time you visit them here. I hope it will allow you to feel connected — as a family — to this wonderful place and all it has to offer. On, Wisconsin!

  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.
