Greetings to our alumni, faculty, friends, and family! 

 

This year, the University of Wisconsin Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology celebrates 95 years of training remarkable reproductive health clinicians and researchers. A lot has changed since the first residents began their training in 1929. It is my pleasure to invite you to join us in Madison this October to celebrate this landmark anniversary!

The Department of Ob-Gyn 95th Anniversary Celebration Weekend kicks off Friday, October 25 with an intimate luncheon to learn about our plans to transform reproductive healthcare in the region from department leaders and faculty. Join us for a tour of UnityPoint Health-Meriter Hospital (formerly Madison General) to see the latest updates to Wisconsin’s busiest birthing center! Friday will wrap up with a celebration dinner at Memorial Union. 


On Saturday, October 26, we will cheer on the Wisconsin Badgers in their Homecoming game against Penn State. Join us for a tailgate with the Wisconsin Medical Alumni Association before the game! 

 

Please mark your calendars, reserve your hotel rooms – Homecoming weekend fills up fast! – and stay tuned for more details and registration information. We can’t wait to see you.
