Playlist

What does 150 years of tradition sound like?

This playlist has a collection of audio with Badger traditions, inspirational words, and even oral histories from people that have done important work at the UW. It will grow over time so be sure to check back often. Happy listening.

Special thanks to UW Archives for their assistance in uncovering many of these great audio time capsules.
