UW–Madison is a community that embraces diversity—both in the people who live, learn and work here, and in the experiences that enrich life in the classroom and beyond. Our students come from every state in the nation and some 134 countries, bringing an abundant mix of life experiences and cultures. The campus provides services and student life programs designed to meet a broad range of student needs and concerns. More than 760 student organizations, extensive recreational programs, modern fitness facilities, performing arts groups, Big Ten athletics, and ongoing cultural, social, and political events will pro- vide you with hundreds of ways to get involved and challenge yourself. Whatever your interests, you can connect with others who share your enthusiasm. The hub of student life on campus is the Memorial Union. With good food, live music, freshly made Babcock ice cream, movies and study lounges, you can eat well, be entertained, enjoy a good book or good company. The Union welcomes more than 15,000 students through its doors each day. It’s no wonder the Union is considered the “living room of campus.” Student Life Residence Halls: 17 Club Athletic Teams: 35 Intramural Sports: 30 Indoor Recreational Facilities: 4 Swimming Pools: 2 Outdoor Recreation Area: 63 acres Student Organizations: 761 Fraternities and Sororities: 47 Performing Arts Events: 1,500/year Above:Ab PresidentialP id ti l candidatedid t BarackB k ObamaOb spokek tto a crowd of nearly 20,000 at the Kohl Center in 2008.

In the late 19th century, two such mastodons were unearthed in southwestern Wisconsin and were purchased for the UW Geology Museum’s permanent collection. Over the course of a century, one mastodon find became Wisconsin’s most famous fossil, while the other was virtually forgotten. In late 2015, this composite skeleton celebrated its 100th year of display in the Geology Museum, and Carrie Eaton unveiled some exciting discoveries regarding its history. Eaton will talk about the rediscovery of a historic specimen, new developments since the story broke, and why its extinction shouldn’t prevent us from learning to love the mastodon.
