UWM is a driving force in Milwaukee and in Wisconsin. It's also a university that is changing and growing, expanding its campus, its research, its partnerships, and its reach across the globe. Since arriving at UWM three years ago, Michael R. Lovell has had a very clear vision for where this university is headed. And his vision hasn't gone unnoticed in the community. This video epitomizes the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and the man driving the school to succeed.
This is the dynamic and diverse city that UWM loves to call home. And, this is the video UWM submitted to the Dear MKE Project. Thanks to The Delta Routine (http://thedeltaroutine.com) for providing the soundtrack!
