Yesterday, I presented the State of the University address to faculty, staff, community members, and students. I noted that the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater is “on the move,” stressing the accomplishments of our students, faculty, and staff.
It is an exciting time to be a Warhawk. With faculty and staff returning to campus this week and with new freshmen moving in today, the campus is coming alive. While construction projects continue, those who have been away will see that progress has been made. The bookstore in Moraine Hall has reopened. The south portion of Wyman Mall is progressing, as is Hyland Hall. The Multisport complex is progressing, with the field turf project nearly complete.
Dear Chancellor Telfer,
Please thank your staff and all the incredible student volunteers who helped my daughter and several hundred other students move into the dorms yesterday, August 27th! The students couldn’t have been more gracious – from unloading our car, to traipsing back and forth with our ’stuff’, to the Ice pops, candy and water graciously offered JUST when we needed them! All in all, the day was a breeze – topped off by a wireless network ‘fix’ accomplished by another very patient student volunteer at the Computer Help Desk at the Library!
Our initial impressions of UWW were very good – now they are glowing. You and your staff should be very proud…thank you!
