A new face for student services
 The
people who work there love it. And visitors, families
and students (both current and prospective) are
finding a one-stop center for key student services
at UW-Green Bay. Completed just last month, the
remodeling of the Student Services Building has
created a more attractive welcoming area and new
and improved spaces for Admissions, Academic Advising,
Career Services, the Registrar’s Office, Bursar’s
and Financial Aid. Also new are staffing and training
changes that will emphasize a generalist approach
so that individual staff members can provide a
range of services without transferring customers
from office to office. Overseeing the transition
are student services leaders including Jennifer
Pfundtner ’99, Pam Harvey-Jacobs ’83 and ’98, Ron
Ronnenberg, Mike Stearney ’80, Mike Herrity and
Dick Anderson.
Campus
to host state women's studies in April
Plans are in full swing for UW-Green Bay to host
the annual UW System Women’s Studies Conference
on campus, April 4 and 5. The theme is, fittingly
enough, interdisciplinary with broad perspectives
on “Women and Environment.” The conference will
run concurrently with the UW System’s LGBTQ Consortium
Conference, which addresses scholarly work and
issues related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered
or questioning people.
They like Adult Degree program
The year 2007 set records — at least modern-day
— for the Adult Degree Program. Total enrollment
topped  500
students for the first time since 1993-94 when
the program was still known as Extended Degree.
At commencement in December, fifteen students received
their Interdisciplinary Studies degrees (including
the happy graduating seniors shown at right). The
program employs distance learning methods to accommodate
the needs of returning adult students.
New Fox Cities satellite site makes easy commute for adult learners
Leaders of four New North universities and technical colleges cut the ribbon to celebrate the recent opening of a joint Fox Cities learning center. Called the University of Wisconsin Northeast Wisconsin (NEW) Learning Center and located on the campus of Fox Valley Tech, right on Highway 41,
the facility provides a convenient location for working adults to take classes offered through the UW-Green Bay Adult Degree Program and its counterpart at UW Oshkosh.
