Photo gallery Fall scenes color UW–Madison’s campus
After an extended summer, the University of Wisconsin–Madison has made the transition to fall colors and cooler weather. From the lakeshore path to University Avenue, oak trees, maples and black walnuts blazed orange, red and gold, putting on a show as Badgers went about campus on Oct. 17.
