Ready to roar? UWM Day at the Wisconsin State Fair is Sunday, Aug. 9. Panthers, prospective Panthers and their families and friends are invited to join us for live music, cooking and robotics demonstrations and our trademark Roar Like a Panther contest.
1, 2, 3… ROAR!
Feel future Panthers shake the fairgrounds during the Roar Like a Panther contest. Children ages 12 and younger are invited to roar for a special judge — UWM nursing student and Miss Wisconsin Rosalie Smith.
Live music
Will Pfrang and the Anytime Leslies will be performing throughout the day. These UWM students and alums know how to get the fun started!
Pounce on some season tickets

Graduate like a Panther

Wait … a clock powered by vegetables?
