The future belongs to those who show up.
Because UW–Madison is a public university, its budget and policies are affected by our government. We need passionate advocates like you to be part of the UW’s delegation to Congress!
Gather with fellow UW alumni and friends in Washington, DC, to learn how to be an effective advocate. Then, meet with individual members of Congress and their staff in a small group setting. You’ll make a difference by sharing your UW story about what UW–Madison and higher education means to you and your community. Plus, you’ll connect with other Badgers who love the UW as much as you do — and enjoy a taste of Madison with some Babcock Hall ice cream!
RSVP by March 15.
