Souriya Vong Vang chose to attend the University of Wisconsin-Madison this fall because it was affordable. But now that he has about two months of his freshman year complete, Vang said UW’s diverseness makes the school a good fit.
“Every single day when you walk about, you seen new faces all of the time. Not just different races, but it’s just the sheer amount of people here that makes this place so great,” said Vang, 19, who is a graduate of Wausau East High School.
