Warhawk Connection Center
The Warhawk Connection Center or WCC is UW-Whitewater’s intersectional student center. The Warhawk Connection Center was named by students, for students, and serves as a space for all students to establish communal relationships with Warhawks of varying backgrounds and identities. In addition to being a space for students to collaborate, connect, relax or study, the WCC is home to weekly programs and workshops that enhance cultural awareness and intersectional competence, promote emotional, mental and physical wellness, and fosters community through civil discourse.
