University Initiatives

At UW-Whitewater, we honor a proud legacy that began in 1868 with a simple yet powerful mission: to prepare passionate, driven individuals to make a difference. From those early roots as a teacher training school, we've grown into a dynamic university with global reach—and our commitment to student success has never wavered.

Through the dedicated teaching and mentorship of our faculty, and the transformative experiences offered both inside and outside the classroom, Warhawks continue to thrive. These opportunities are made possible, in part, through the generosity of alumni, friends, and supporters like you who believe in the power of education.

The UW-Whitewater Foundation plays a pivotal role in advancing our mission by supporting a variety of strategic, campus-wide initiatives. Your contributions help ensure that every Warhawk has the tools to succeed—and the opportunity to soar.

Join us in shaping the next chapter of UW-Whitewater’s story. Together, we’re not just supporting students—we’re building a future.
