The Wisconsin at Work 2019 event series connected UW–Madison alumni across the country, bringing Badgers together to network, have fun, and hear from industry experts on relevant topics. The series, which brings faculty speakers on the cutting edge of research together with alumni, provides lifelong learning opportunities for Badgers who want to stay involved and connect with the UW community.
By the numbers:
- Four cities: Los Angeles, Madison, Chicago, Denver
- Three speakers: director of the James A. Graaskamp Center for Real Estate Mark Eppli, Leslie P. Schultz Professor in Risk Management and Insurance Justin Sydnor, and Irgens Executive Director of the James A. Graaskamp Center for Real Estate Michael Brennen
- Hundreds of alumni enjoyed networking with each other and learning something new
- Attendees spanned a wide range of grad years from 1959-2018
