  • Faqs: Everything You'd Ever Want to Know About Alumni Park and Then
    FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT: Carla Minsky, Communications, [email protected], cell 920.979.3420 Mary Carbine, Director, Alumni Park, [email protected], 608-308-5142 FAQs: Everything You’d Ever Want to Know About Alumni Park and Then Some THE EXHIBITS How difficult was it narrowing down the alumni to feature? In a word, extremely. There are 123 alumni honored in the Park, determined by an extensive review process that included input from UW, University archives, the Wisconsin Union, City of Madison Parks, the Alumni Association, the Wisconsin Foundation, and UW alumni. What were the criteria for inclusion? Alumni featured in the park represent the breadth and diversity of alumni achievement and the positive influence they’ve had across Wisconsin, the nation, and the world. We focused on significant alumni achievements that represent the Wisconsin Idea in action rather than specific academic disciplines. What exactly is the Wisconsin Idea? It is the University’s guiding principle that education should have a positive influence on people’s lives beyond the boundaries of the classroom. The Wisconsin Idea was first introduced by UW President Charles Van Hise during an address in 1903 in which he stated: “I shall never be content until the beneficent influence of the University reaches every home in the state.” Was diversity a consideration in selecting alumni to include? Yes, the park honors a diverse range of scientists, artists, entrepreneurs, poets, engineers, change agents, and more, from iconic and well- known alumni to the lesser known, and from every generation of graduates. The featured alumni include alumni of color, immigrants and children of immigrants, international alumni, LGBT alumni, pioneers of women’s history, and more.

    A report from WISCONSIN The University of Wisconsin Foundation Winter 2012 insights CHAZEN MUSEUM A BREATHTAKING GIFT UW STUDENT FOUNDATION SPREADS THE MESSAGE TEAMWORK BOOSTS LA BAHN ARENA President’s Message What kind of gift is most valuable to the University of Wisconsin-Madison? Which gifts have the most impact? From one-time major gifts for facilities and faculty chairs to more regular annual fund support, often given as a way of saying “thanks for the education and experience,” all gifts have impact and are appreciated by faculty, staff and students. The state of Wisconsin has built and grown a tremendous resource in the University of Wisconsin-Madison over more than 150 years. Given the new economic realities of public sector finance and the value of Michael Knetter higher education in a knowledge-driven economy, however, philanthropy must play an increasingly important and evolving role in the University’s teaching, research and outreach missions. State governments around the nation are struggling to meet the greater demand for higher education in the face of other program burdens. At the same time, the winners in our economy have tended to be those who had the opportunity to earn a degree from a great university such as ours. The ability to maintain the UW-Madison as a world-class university will be largely determined by whether our alumni and friends see virtue in providing a greater margin of less restricted support to ensure the opportunity the UW-Madison provides is available to the next generation of Badgers. Traditionally, private institutions have relied much more heavily on philanthropy than public institutions, often in the form of regular annual giving from a high percentage of graduates.

O As you will read elsewhere in this 2007–08 Annual Report, last season was filled with great Badger moments. The year included two national rowing championships, record-setting per- formances by a number of Badger teams and a No. 18 ranking in the prestigious Directors’ Cup, one of the highest finishes in school history. There also was plenty of other good news to share regarding the off-the-playing-field perfor- mance of our student-athletes, both in the classroom, where they continued their strong academic performance, and in the community, where they continued to volunteer their time and energy in a The year included two variety of community service projects throughout the year.
