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 />

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 />
