MADISON, Wis. â?? Old Ogg Hall at University of Wisconsin-Madison, home to thousands of students for more than 40 years, is coming down.
But memories are surfacing, in part because of a Wisconsin Alumni Association blog that invites former residents to tell their stories. Dozens of alumni have posted on the site. Topics include: â??The night someone dropped a boulder down the trash chute…â?? and â??The Fire.â??
.
Demolitions crews started ripping down the old hall last week. A new version of Ogg opened this fall across the street, with larger rooms, shared bathrooms and air conditioning.
