We are thrilled to welcome you back to campus to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the UWW School Psychology Program preparing outstanding school psychologists in Wisconsin! Over the past 50 years, we have prepared nearly 500 school psychologists, who have been practicing across the U.S. and the world. All of our students are a testament to our success. Whether you are an alum, faculty member, student, or supporter of our program, we look forward to welcoming you back to campus as we celebrate five decades of excellence together! 

As part of our celebration, we look forward to recognizing alumni’s accomplishments. What are you most proud of? What stands out about your cohort? We invite you to complete this brief Google form updating your contact information, sharing your accomplishments, and nominating yourself and your cohort for recognition at the celebration.
