Full-color UW calendar raises money for scholarships

A new university calendar features 14 full-color photos of some of the most beautiful places on campus — and buying the calendar will help support students who attend the university.

To order the calendar by phone, call (800) 957-7052.

More than $10 of the $12.95 retail price goes to the Chancellor’s Undergraduate Scholarship Fund, thanks to a unique partnership between the university and the University Book Store.

The book store decided to collaborate on this publication because “by supporting the Chancellor’s Undergraduate Scholarship Fund, we’re allowing generations of students to experience UW–Madison,” says Dale Henricks, president of the University Book Store, which has sponsored numerous UW–Madison activities over the years.

The 14-by-20-inch wall calendars for the year 2000 are now available at all University Book Store locations.

Each month’s double-page spread features a large color image and a smaller historical photo. The distinctive Memorial Union Terrace chairs, Bascom Hill on a frosty winter day, joyful faces at commencement, the energy of the UW Marching Band and many other memorable moments all are captured in photos from the UW–Madison Office of News and Public Affairs.

Calendar buyers also receive a coupon for $5 off on the purchase of UW-insignia clothing at the University Bookstore.

“Thanks to the generous support of the University Book Store, the Undergraduate Scholarship Fund is growing,” says Peyton Smith, university sesquicentennial coordinator. “Students and alumni of UW–Madison will learn a bit of university history while evoking fond memories every day during the year 2000.”

The calendar is on sale at these locations: 711 State St., Madison; UBS Digital, 673 State St., Madison; Hilldale Mall’s UBS, UBS Kids, and UBS Outlet; UBS Outlet, 201 Cottage Grove Road, Madison; The Thrifty Reader, Johnson Creek Outlet Mall; and UBS Kiosks in the Fox River Mall, Appleton, and the Mayfair Mall, Brookfield.
