The Wisconsin Union, often referred to as “the heart and soul” of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has enhanced the lives of members and visitors since it was founded in 1907. Since 1928, when the doors to Memorial Union opened, the Wisconsin Union has served as the living room of the UW-Madison campus. It employs 250 full-time and 1,400 part-time staff. At both Memorial Union and Union South, the union connects students, faculty, staff, members and visitors through shared cultural, social and recreational events and experiences.
