"I developed a great sense of who I am at the Fond du Lac Campus. I was able to ease into college life and participate in extra-curriculars. The size of the classes made it easy to develop a rapport and working relationship with the teachers. I loved my two years at the Campus."

 Craig Larson (78-'81)
Financial Representative, Northwestern Mutual, Fond du Lac
Earned Pacesetter, Bronze, Silver and National Quality Awards. Network Leader Award for 2000
Bachelor of Arts Degree in Geology, UW-Oshkosh
"My college years at UW-Fond du Lac were the best years of my life. The soccer team allowed me to discover myself and who I was at that time in my life. Friends that I made on the team and on campus are still life friends and some very good friends have since passed on. Somehow soccer has driven me to experience the sport around the world, nationally, and locally here in Fond du Lac.
Some of the teachers and my coach will never be forgotten for what they did for me in class and on the field. The UW experience of Fond du Lac is a school where you cannot get lost, and the teachers are there to help and mentor. My son will be attending in three more years. I hope to coach him here."
