The university is located in a larger city, yet the campus has beautiful scenery and in some parts, is isolated from a city atmosphere.

is wisconsin really just a party school?is wisconsin also serious about their academics? i heard its all party school. can someone who is attending the university of wisconsin answer my question. thanks.

Wisconsin is way more than a party school. Badgers are very serious about their academics. From the Law School that is known for its Innocence project to the Medical School and the top notch medical facilities that they have, UW Madison is known nationally for great things. You can find out more information on the school website, www.wisc.edu. It's all about balance. We party hard, but also work hard.

thanks so much
