Nontraditional Student Week

In honor and recognition of returning adult students, colleges and universities all over the United States celebrate National Nontraditional Student Week, November 7–11, 2011

Chancellor Wells has designated the week as Nontraditional Student Week at UW Oshkosh as well, to draw attention to the nearly 3,000 nontraditional undergraduate and graduate students at UW Oshkosh. 

Thank My Professor

Part of this week's celebration is our Thank Your Professor campaign. The Division of Lifelong Learning and Community Engagement encourages you to fill out our online form or pick up a postcard in Dempsey hall 111, 313 or 323 and send a message to a professor who has made UW Oshkosh more inclusive to adult nontraditional students.
