Badger Dialogues

Make it YOUR community. 

Connect with university leaders and other students to learn about campus initiatives and to share your related experiences: 

  • Hear directly from your campus administrators.
  • Ask questions and share your perspectives on important topics.
  • Tell us what you’d like us to know about your experience on campus.

Badger Dialogues launched in fall 2023 as an informal opportunity for campus administrators and students from a variety of backgrounds to connect with a shared purpose — to create a more inclusive campus community where everyone can flourish. We hosted 19 sessions in 2023–24 with around 200 students. Beginning in fall 2024, we are expanding the series to include more groups, topics, and formats.  

We look forward to connecting with you!     

If you are a student and would like to request a Badger Dialogues session on a specific topic related to belonging at UW–Madison, email vcsa@studentaffairs.wisc.edu.
