  • The Wisconsin Idea: the Vision That Made Wisconsin Famous
    1 “Trying to plan for the future without a sense of the past is like trying to plant cut flowers” --Daniel Boorstin, historian and Librarian of Congress The Wisconsin Idea: The Vision that Made Wisconsin Famous Introduction To the practitioners who comprise UW-Madison’s Community Partnerships and Outreach (CPO) Staff Network, the Wisconsin Idea is at the heart of their day-to-day work with communities in Wisconsin and beyond. But the original meaning of the Wisconsin Idea has faded over time, replaced by a generic public service mandate. (1) “The Boundaries of the University are the Boundaries of the State” The “Year of the Wisconsin Idea” offers us an opportunity to reflect on how the Wisconsin Idea guides our practice. We chose to explore the history of the emergence of the Wisconsin Idea in an attempt to renew and clarify our vision for why and how we engage with the public to address pressing issues. It turns out that the history of the University’s engagement with the State offers much more relevant guidance than we would have imagined. The values that drove the founders of the WI Idea—truth, self- governance, egalitarianism, integrity, trust and social capital—are the same values that represent effective, democratic partnerships today. It’s evident in our practice, and now it’s evident in our history as well, thanks to the work of Gwen Drury, Ph.D. student in Educational Policy and Leadership Analysis at UW-Madison. The rich history she details here brings us closer to our best practices—equitable, reciprocal engagement in which knowledge is co-created by the University and communities working together on issues that matter to all of us.

So when you are the go-to guy for everybody who wants access to James Thomson, a man who’d much rather be in the lab than in the media’s glare, you learn to say no more often than you’d like. By Terry Devitt ’78, MA’85 Seriously Funny 22 Some thought that Ben Karlin ’93 was walking away from success when he left his job as executive producer for TV’s The Daily 18 Show and The Colbert Report. But, as he explains in this conversation with On Wisconsin, he was simply charting a comedic path that includes a new book and his own production company. By Jenny Price ’96 Can of Worms 28 Graduate students have more to worry about than grades — there’s also research, funding, and, as the students working in one lab discovered, their mentor’s ethics. While PhD candidate Amy Hubert x’08 aims to overcome scandal and put the finishing touches on her degree, the UW struggles to protect the students who will create the future of science. 22 By John Allen INSIDE Campus on $5 a Day LETTERS 4 34 If a bill featuring Abe’s face is burning a hole in your pocket, SIFTING & WINNOWING 9 you’d be amazed to learn what it can buy on campus.

  • October 10, 2019 Chancellor Rebecca
    October 10, 2019 Chancellor Rebecca Blank Office of the Chancellor 161 Bascom Hall 500 Lincoln Drive Madison, WI 53706 RE: Student Free Speech and Safety Concerns Dear Chancellor Blank, I am writing to you today regarding a very troubling event that took place this past Wednesday on your campus and which has been widely reported in local and online media. As reported by the Wisconsin State Journal, a UW-Madison student was video-taped defacing the windows of the UW-Madison College Republicans’ office on campus with demeaning signs containing highly-charged, visceral language which were seemingly meant to intimidate and cause a disturbance. Additionally, the student engaging in this behavior was doing so while blaring a song on her phone entitled “FDT” (F*** Donald Trump) by rapper YG which, in addition to explicit language, contain inferences towards the harming of the President of the United States. Further, according to the Wisconsin State Journal article reporting the matter, when a university employee approached the student requesting that she please stop, the student replied with an expletive and aggressive language and refused to stop. The article continues, “Two female students were in the office during the duration of the [events] and Christens said they feared for their safety, afraid to leave because of the demonstrator’s aggressive behavior.” As a result of these events, I am requesting a thorough investigation into this matter by you, the UW’s Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards, and the UW Police Department. Additionally, I request that you provide me – consistent with all laws and regulations - with a complete report as to the process UW will be using to investigate and respond, findings from the investigation, including any disciplinary actions resulting therefrom, as well as any modifications and/or clarifications to UW’s campus free speech policy and any anti-intimidation and anti- harassment policy.

It has a colourful history that includes the coronation of Saxon Kings and the construction of London’s oldest bridge, while present-day Kingston has become one of the capital’s most exclusive and desirable places to live. Today’s Kingston is a lively and picturesque market town, perfectly situated on the banks of the Thames, and with a character of its own, although Central London is just a train ride away. The latest addition to Kingston is Royal Exchange, an exciting new development built around the beautiful Grade II listed Old Post Office and Telephone Exchange buildings. It will offer 267 Manhattan, one, two and three bedroom apartments, adding a modern touch to complement Kingston’s evolving heritage. 3 There are two Grade II listed buildings at Royal Exchange. The Old Post Office, which dates back to 1875, and the Telephone Exchange, built in 1908. Both were once the beating heart of Kingston: bustling institutions that played host to generations A PART OF of workers.
