Amy Smith is anxious. She’s known for years this time would come, but now the day when she and her husband, Stan, will deliver Alynna, their oldest child, to UW-Madison for the first time is almost upon them.
“We’re sending our child into unknown territory,” said Smith, of Darlington. “She’s been under my wing. I know all of her friends, I know what she’s doing during the day, I know what she’s doing at night. We’re very close.
“We’re small town. When you hear about UW, it seems huge, almost overwhelming and I’ve felt panicked sending my child there. It’s going to be a huge transition. Huge.”
