Although I was raised to be a Badger by my parents — who met at UW in the 80s — I did not attend a football game at Camp Randall until my junior year of high school.
Incoming freshmen and fellow undergraduates of UW-Madison will have the opportunity to explore and appreciate some of the art and talent that Madison has to offer at Night at the Overture on Sept. 2. This is an opportunity to get out of your recently moved-in dorm room, explore State Street and bond with many of your fellow Badgers at this highly anticipated Welcome Week event. Along with thousands of other fresh-faced students on campus, this is a perfect way to begin your first Friday night in Madison! As an incoming junior, I have such positive thoughts when I reminisce on this night, and as a person who appreciates the details, I am going to share with you just exactly how this evening works.
The screen blinks to life in front of you as you settle into your plush seat. With popcorn in your left hand and a soda in your right, your anticipation mounts as the previews play, a warm-up for the showing to come. A hush soon comes over the crowded theater as the last bits of chatter die out. Finally, the time has come. The film has begun.
Madison Police Department Chief Mike Koval announced Wednesday that Tuesday’s homicide in the parking lot of a southwest Madison BP gas station was not random. He made the announcement just minutes after speaking with the victim’s family.
The afternoon rush began with eager fans waiting outside of Shannon Hall an hour and a half before the event. The line ended stretching onto Lakeshore path in a matter of minutes. While our WUD Distinguished Lecture Series Director Mohan Mandali, Kennedie King, Nora Herzog and myself waited on Laverne Cox’s arrival, we pondered on the idea that she would arrive in a stretched out limousine. To our surprise, a black car turns the corner, windows tinted, and at that moment we knew this campus would not be the same.

Students can look forward to a much-needed break this summer and there is no better way to spend that time than to kick back in a cinema to enjoy the blockbusting lineup of summer movies. Just as final exams kick off, so too does “Captain America: Civil War.” The third installment in the Captain America saga is already garnering critical acclaim, giving a jolt of adrenaline to summer moviegoers. Fans of the superhero genre also have DC’s “Suicide Squad” coming on August 6. The action genre can also bolster films like “Jason Bourne,” the highly anticipated continuation of the popular Bourne Trilogy. For those of us looking for something a little more light-hearted this summer, Steven Spielberg may have an answer to that in “The BFG,” a film adaptation of Roald Dahl’s novel. Other adaptations set for release include “Me Before You,” a love story starring Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke, and “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” a sequel to the 2010 film “Alice in Wonderland.” No matter the genre preference, there is always something new coming around the corner for moviegoers this summer.
Controversy surrounding a bill requiring transgender K-12 students to use the bathroom corresponding to their biological sex has resurfaced after comments made by the bill’s author Wednesday.
Madison Police Department Chief Mike Koval announced at a press conference Tuesday that a 2-year-old girl was the victim of a homicide, the fourth in Madison this year.
One person was killed and another injured with non-life threatening injuries early Tuesday at 7436 Mineral Point Road, outside of O’Grady’s Irish Pub, according to a Madison Police Department incident report.
One of my favorite mixes of the last few years is WHY BE’s "Juice Infinite (YB Myspace Mix)." Every song in the 45-minute set was ripped from Myspace pages dating as far back as 2007, when the website was considered one of the leaders in both online music and social media. While the scope of the mix isn’t even 10 years away from present time, it sounds almost scarily dated, undoubtedly sending some listeners into flashbacks of their days pursuing Myspace under questionable web handles.
As more and more people nationwide are being diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer’s, Wisconsin lawmakers, activists and researchers are working to ensure the state remains a leader in supporting families touched by the diseases.
Madison has always been perceived as a biking community, and as the weather has started to turn this spring, that’s all the more evident, with thousands of bicyclists hitting the network of trails that interconnect most of the city.
Father Time is undefeated. But in golf, he often has to work overtime.
The Badgers were just one out away from a no-hitter and a series win over Purdue. However, they were unable to finish the job, letting a historic moment and a victory slip away.
Eneale Pickett seems comfortable as a hip-hop artist on his new mixtape “L.I.F.E.”, but he’s quick to denounce any intention of sounding, posturing or circulating as a rapper. The freshman First Wave scholar from Chicago’s south side has been a lover of hip-hop and poetry alike since early on, but it wasn’t until he was thrown into the mix of slam poetry in his middle and high school years that he felt sure of his artistic stature and purpose in the spoken word vein. The latest chapter in Pickett’s journey proves that he’s no live-performance purist either.
Diversity is too often drowned by tides of blacks and whites. There are so many forces telling us to think one thing or its polar opposite, and as a result, we are led to believe that our values are not worthy of recognition if they are not painted black or white. This is an ongoing struggle, especially here in Madison, given recent events on campus. However, in attending SXSW in Austin, Texas, I found the keynotes and film screenings to be a refreshing blend of perspectives and stories that challenged these boundaries. The diversity in topic and genre kept me on my toes as the festival proved over and over that the best projects are the ones that add color to these dichromatic topics.
An Associated Press team that reported on slave labor in the southeast Asian fishing industry won the 2016 Anthony Shadid Award for Journalism Ethics UW-Madison announced Friday.
