Bring the Panthers Back to Campus
There's often talk regarding whether UWM is a commuter campus or not, and although it still has numerous commuter students UWM has been evolving into a full blown campus environment for years. This change has stirred up East Side residents and put a greater demand on the neighborhood, but Milwaukee's future is closely tied to UWM's future so this evolution needs to be embraced, not challenged.
