The Wisconsin Idea
First attributed to UW President Charles Van Hise in 1904, the
Wisconsin Idea
is the principle that education should influence and improve people's lives
beyond the university classroom. For more than 100 years, this idea has guided
the university's work. Read more about the
Wisconsin Idea and its history.
