Opinion: Letter

A letter of thanks

In light of the recent fires that affected two separate residences and impacted more than 35 UW students near our campus, I’d like to publicly recognize the efforts of the following:

The Madison Police Department

The University Police Department

The Madison Fire Department

The American Red Cross

The University Book Store

University Housing

The University Hospital 

The donors for the Dean of Students Crisis Loan fund

The many faculty, staff and other students who came together to assist our students in a time of great need.

The partnerships and web of support for our students are of utmost importance to us in the Offices of the Dean of Students, and I sincerely appreciate the efforts and assistance provided to our students during these crises.

On behalf of the staff here at UW-Madison, thank you for all that you do.

Lori M. Berquam

Dean of Students
