Former U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold remembers his days in Sellery Hall on campaign trail

Former U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., visited his alma mater Monday to help a family move into Sellery Hall and reminisce about his days as a Badger.

As a freshman at UW-Madison 44 years ago, Feingold left his room at Sellery Hall to make way for a friend of his roommate. Instead of making the 40-mile trek back to his home of Janesville for the weekend, he and a friend decided to stay in the lounge area, with mixed results.
