A Great Initiative
The "Great people. Great place." initiative incorporates the two primary campus-wide priorities identified by former Chancellor John Wiley and Provost Patrick Farrell, and endorsed by Chancellor Biddy Martin, for the next two years.
One key concern is retaining and supporting all of our "Great people": the most promising undergraduates, top graduate/professional students and stellar faculty. The East Campus Gateway, based on a century-old classic design, is another focus. A vibrant pedestrian corridor filled with new and upgraded facilities, outdoor public art and inviting plazas, it will demonstrate why the UW-Madison was, is and always will be a "Great place."
