I have to echo the sentiments of my fellow Badgers as I am certainly a very proud Badger alum. I spent four glorious years here and while I could write a book...I'll keep this review to a few crucial points.
1) The campus is gorgeous. It is. If you can fall in love with this campus in the dead of winter (like I did) it gets even better when the weather warms up. You'll see a varied mix of old and new buildings and facilities which really add to the character of the school.
2) Academics are no joke here. Seriously. Yes, Badgers can drink but we also studied very hard too. I attended the business school (you have to apply for admission during your sophomore year) and it was a really great program.
3) Hungry? Thirsty? Seeking shopping? Want to go boating on the lake? Madison has you covered. So many bars, restaurants, cool boutiques and lovely lakes surround you here.
I'll always have a soft spot for Wisconsin and proudly sport my Bucky sweatshirt, now and forever.
