Volunteers distribute complimentary copies of "The Death and Life of the Great Lakes" following the Chancellor's Convocation for New Students at the Kohl Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on Sept. 4, 2018. The event, attended by thousands of first-year students, is part of Wisconsin Welcome programming. The book, by Dan Egan, is the 2018-19 selection for Go Big Read, a UW-Madison common-reading program designed to engage students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members in a shared, academically focused reading experience.
