Later in February, the University of Wisconsin–Madison will host three on-campus events to gather feedback about the current layout of the west side of campus and future improvements planned for the West Campus District. In addition to campus wide communications, they are reaching out to relevant campus community leaders and organizations for support in encouraging participation and to make promotional material (attached) available for distribution through any other appropriate networks. This promotional material (attached) summarizes event dates, times, objectives, and links to UW’s website for more information.
 
The three open houses will take place on:

• Wednesday, Feb. 22 – Health Sciences Learning Center Atrium – 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
• Wednesday, Feb. 22 – Health Sciences Learning Center Atrium – 4 p.m.-6:30 p.m.
• Thursday, Feb. 23 – Gordon Dining & Event Center, Overture Room – 11 a.m.-1 p.m.

Attendees will have an opportunity to view initial design concepts from the project team and share their reactions in an open house-style setting.
 
Participants are encouraged to stop by at any time during each event. UW–Madison staff and project team members from the design firm Perkins & Will will be onsite to answer questions about the design process and the project’s goals. Free refreshments will also be available. These drop-in events are designed to collect feedback from the campus and community on the following:

1. What excites you about the vision for West Campus?
2. What is missing from the West Campus vision?
3. What questions do you have for the project team?

Members of the campus and Madison community who are unable to attend the events are invited to use an interactive feedback tool to share thoughts about the current West Campus layout and ideas for future improvements.
