What do you love most about being a Badger?
"Being a Badger and wearing the "W" means that you are part of something more than just a team or a school. Wearing the "W" represents how you are a member of the Badger family. Being a Badger means that you will always be supported by those that have some before you and those that come after you. I love how you cannot only see, but feel the pride and passion that surrounds the University of Wisconsin, whether it is on game day or a rainy day, people rep the "W" with pride!"
