In addition to being students and athletes at the University of Wisconsin, members of the 23 sports programs are ambassadors to the community. That?s reflected in the fact that they combined for more than 3,600 hours of civic-related service during the 2011-12 school year. Whether it?s appearing at local schools, providing autographed items for fund-raisers, heading up food drives, visiting the UW Children?s Hospital or giving time to organizations like Habitat for Humanity, UW student-athletes do more than you probably realized.
