I wanted to do something for my university, of which I am very proud. I wanted to recognize and support an excellent teacher. Alice Mortenson (’62 BS History), who created the Alice D. Mortenson/Petrovich Chair in Russian History |

| University Ridge Golf Course Expansion- $3,500,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2008
This project calls for the construction of an indoor hitting and practice area with digital video recording capabilities, practice stations for hitting full shots into a practice net or pitch shots onto a green, and a pitching and putting green with a playing surface that would simulate play characteristics of real grass and practice bunkers. Such a facility would rank among the best indoor collegiate instructional facilities in the country and provide an exclusive and convenient instructional area for our men’s and women’s golfers to train throughout the year.
Plans also include the expansion of the current clubhouse and construction of team locker rooms, meeting rooms and office space. At present, there is no such facility available to the UW golf teams. Additionally, the dining room will be expanded and a full-service kitchen added in an effort to better attract and service intercollegiate, interscholastic and external golf tournaments and golf outings. |

| Hockey Facility- $20,000,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2009
This project calls for the construction of an on-campus practice facility for the men’s hockey program and an on-campus competition facility for women’s hockey. |
|
| Student-Athlete Support Services Facility- $35,000,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2009
This project includes the construction of a multi-purpose facility to provide academic, sports medicine and strength and conditioning support services. Expanded team locker rooms and meeting space area also part of the plans. The current support facilities do not accommodate the needs of Wisconsin’s 750 student-athletes. |
|
| Outdoor Tennis Stadium- $1,500,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2011
Plans call for the construction of additional outdoor tennis courts in an effort to better serve our men’s and women’s tennis teams as well as host conference and NCAA championships. Plans also include the construction of team locker rooms, meeting rooms and office space. At present, there is no such space available to the UW tennis teams at Nielsen Tennis Stadium. |
|
| Indoor Track- $5,000,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2012
Plans call for the construction of banked indoor track with permanent grandstand seating.
|
|
| Soccer/Track Stadium- $10,000,000 | | Proposed Construction Date: 2016
The track/soccer stadium must be relocated as a result of the campus master plan. Plans call for the construction of separate stadiums for track and soccer. This project will include the construction of one multipurpose building to serve four intercollegiate varsity teams – men’s and women’s track and field and men’s and women’s soccer – and to provide permanent grandstand seating. The building will house locker facilities, training room, meeting room, player's lounge, press box, concession area and restrooms. |
