  1. This headline made me freak the fuck out but then I saw it was Lynde Bradley Uihlein and not that complete piece of shit Richard Uihlein (from ULINE/"Funding Fascism" fame) who is her cousin.

  7. It looks like the #UWM food pantry is within spitting distance of 2000% of their $1,000 fundraising goal. They just need $2,450 more. Nice!

  9. Chancellor Thomas Gibson is offering a challenge to #UWM faculty and staff: Raise a total of $1,000 by the end of this week, and he will match with a $1,000 gift. Visits to the UWM food pantry rose more than 41% from September to October, as the federal government shutdown cut paychecks and certain government benefits and demand is expected to spike in the coming days as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits are interrupted.

    It's a good cause.

  11. That's neat. This is an annotated map of #UWM from the September 9, 1965 issue of The UWM Post.

  13. The university I work for started offering "microcredentials" (requires fewer credits than a certificate or degree program). I wonder if perspective employers are into this or not.

  15. Arraiolos, Portugal, 1959. Another non-Hungarian photo in the Fortepan archive, this one from the University Wisconsin Milwakuee Library.

    What a face, and what a look!

  17. #UWM is facing calls to cut 5-10% of expenses immediately while both international enrollment and grant-funded research are plummeting. Tuition has been frozen and the state has been cutting back what they contribute to the UW system since the Walker years. There isn't any "low-hanging fruit" left. This is inevitable.

    "Amid a domestic manufacturing renaissance, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee leadership is pushing to eliminate its materials science department."

  19. I might need to double check that my #meshtastic node at #UWM is still there ... and plugged in. I haven't seen it from my house in 2 weeks.

  25. A fee equal to 24% of the net tuition revenue feels like a lot.

    "The university anticipates the ReUp program will generate at least 800 term enrollments and bring back around 350 unique students who have stopped-out, Eilers said. Using these assumptions, UW-Milwaukee would pay ReUp $700,000 for marketing, recruitment and coaching services over the initial two-year period at current tuition rates, Eilers said."

  29. I went up to #UWM to upgrade the #Meshtastic radio that I left in my office. It's now closer to the window, has a slightly better antenna, and has a proper 3D printed case.

  31. Somebody asked me this morning if the chaos at #NIH is affecting #UWM (since a lot of UWM-held research grants come from NIH). The amount of research that UWM does on an annual basis is a large portion of the reason why it is an R1 institution. I'm a little afraid to see what happens next.

  33. The #meshtastic network in the North Shore / East side is absolutely blowing up. I just picked up the radio that I left in my office at #UWM. I wasn't expecting to be able to do that.

  35. I have a #meshtastic node sitting at #UWM that I haven't physically seen in a few months and I haven't picked up on the network for 26 days. I have a box full of upgrades ready for it but with how ridiculously cold it is in #Milwaukee, I have no enthusiasm to go upgrade it. 🥶

  37. When Cardinal Stritch went under, they made a point of looking for another organization that was looking to produce a Christian education. It's a little annoying that #Waukesha county is going straight to demolishing everything to sell the land for housing.
