Welcome to UWM, Class of 2029!

A big crowd of UWM students in yellow t-shirts holds their hands in the air. Pounce the Panther mascot stands in front of them.
The UWM Class of 2029 began their college careers in September.

It’s the start of another wonderful year at UW-Milwaukee!

UWM Chancellor Thomas Gibson welcomed our newest Panthers at Spaights Plaza with words of encouragement, a family selfie and one of the first big traditions of their college journey, the official class photo.

Welcome home, Panthers. Get ready to make new waves at UWM!
