Much Like Milwaukee’s Past, Its Future Can be Fueled by Water

Oct 15th, 2010 | By | Category: Feature, Kinnickinnic River, Lake Michigan, Menomonee River, Milwaukee River, Reed Street Yards

Much like cities around the world, Milwaukee owes its existence to water. Access to fresh water allowed it to become the Brew City, fueled its development, and was quite literally why it is located where it is, at the gathering of waters. This history has given the Milwaukee area a firm foundation in water technology and research that can be applied to water issues facing the world.

Sad to See Chancellor Santiago Leave UWM

Aug 18th, 2010 | By | Category: Cambridge Commons, Feature, Kenilworth Square Apartments, School of Freshwater Sciences, UWM

Recently, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Chancellor Carlos Santiago announced his resignation from UWM to become the Chief Executive Officer of the Hispanic College Fund in Washington, D.C. I imagine our long time readers would expect us to be dancing a jig or throwing quite the party at the possibility that his departure could derail the Wauwatosa expansion, but believe it or not, we’re disappointed he’s leaving UWM.
