Five months later, Duke and two other academic institutions — the University of Wisconsin and Boston-based Brigham and Women’s Hospital — received a total of roughly $36.3 million to fund the continued development of pan-coronavirus vaccines.
I focused on counties with smaller populations, and Sauk County, Wis., came up in my query; I’ve previously suggested Baraboo (the county seat and home to a small two-year institution that is part of the University of Wisconsin system), and it’s just a bit bigger than what you described.
“I’m not going to go off in the sunset and do nothing, I will be looking at my opportunities in the month of April and make a decision,” Thompson told News 3 Now.
Staff at the University of Wisconsin-Madison want a chancellor with a diverse background who understands the importance of all those who work on campus, rather than one who values only faculty and students.
Michigan? It’s just getting good, Khakipants. After some challenging, underachieving times, Wolverines had themselves a thriller of a season. There were big wins over Iowa, Penn State and fine—an early rout of the University of Wisconsin at Madison. Michigan captured its first Big Ten title since 2004 and was one of four teams to make the Nick Saban College Football Invitational. Blah blah blah, and so on.
Games originally scheduled for Saturday and Sunday between the top-ranked Badgers and the Tommies were called off on Wednesday because of COVID-19 cases in the St. Thomas program.
The University of Wisconsin women’s hockey team’s weekend series against the University of St. Thomas has been scratched. The Badgers’ athletics department explained the two-game set was called off because of COVID-19 concerns within the Tommies.

However, because of schedule changes announced by the Big Ten on Tuesday, the conference opponents who will be coming to Camp Randall to play on that field has been completely switched – except for the most important one.
“They dissolve easily in water,” says environmental engineer Christy Remucal, who studies PFAS in her lab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. (Remucal was not involved in the testing of the Lake Superior fish.) So, the chemicals move around the environment fairly easily, she told me — and there are thousands of them.
The Marcos regime was “exceptional for both the quantity and quality of its violence,” Alfred McCoy, a historian at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, wrote in 1999. McCoy estimated that 3,257 extrajudicial killings were carried out under Marcos. The specter of violence was horrific and deliberate. Many of the victims were mutilated and then dumped roadside for passersby to see, McCoy wrote: “Marcos’s regime intimidated by random displays of its torture victims—becoming thereby a theater state of terror.”
The rise is happening across the country, and Economics professor at UW-Madison’s La Follette School of Public Affairs, Tim Smeeding, says it is largely due to supply chain issues driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.
