A Note to our pre-1966 Alumni!<br />
While we celebrate the 40th anniversary of our establishment<br />
as a business school this year, <strong>UW</strong>M has an even<br />
longer history of business education — and a wonderful<br />
group of alumni to prove it!<br />
After publishing the “retrospective” of our past 40 years in the<br />
last issue of Outlook, we heard from a few pre-1966 alumni who<br />
wanted us to know how proud they are of the business education<br />
they received at <strong>UW</strong>M and the contributions they have made to<br />
<strong>Milwaukee</strong> and Wisconsin.<br />
“Congratulations on turning 40 — but I consider you much<br />
older!” said one 1960 alum.<br />

Donald W. Krueger (BBA-Accounting ’65) wrote to share another<br />
perspective on the campus environment in the late 60s: “I want<br />
to remind you that thousands of students participated in ROTC<br />
during those years, remember the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Berlin<br />
Wall, and the Cold War. Hundreds received commissions as<br />
Army offi cers and served their country during those turbulent<br />
times… Your paragraph simply didn’t go far enough in painting<br />
a picture of that time in <strong>UW</strong>M’s history.”<br />
