I really believe in the Wisconsin Idea, and I have seen young men and women expand their horizons intellectually and socially. I think it’s incumbent upon the alumni in a sense to protect the investment they have made in money, time and experience at Wisconsin. Randall “Jabo” Jablonic (’60 BS ALS), former rowing coach |
|  Educating the pharmacy workforce of the future is a key responsibility of the School. In-state pharmacy students now pay more than $13,000 for years one, two and three, and over $18,000 for year four—and recent tuition increases have been steep. The average Pharmacy student now carries about $85,000 in student loan debt upon graduation. Access to higher education at the UW is increasingly restricted to higher income families. This is becoming a serious problem for historically under-represented groups and low-income families from inner-cities and rural areas in Wisconsin.
The School is committed to keeping the doors to a pharmacy education open to all qualified students, regardless of socioeconomic status. Private gifts for student scholarships will ensure broader access and strengthen the pharmacy workforce of the future.
