Universities of Wisconsin Board of Regents Meeting at UW-Milwaukee
June 4 & 5, 2026
Welcome to UW-Milwaukee!
On behalf of our entire campus community, I look forward to hosting you at the Universities of Wisconsin Board of Regents meeting on June 4 and 5.
June is a wonderful time to visit Milwaukee, and I invite you to explore our lakefront, parks, restaurants and music scene while you are here. Try some of Milwaukee’s top restaurants during Downtown Dining Week.
Your visit will include opportunities to socialize, including a reception at UWM’s School of Architecture & Urban Planning, home to the only accredited professional architecture degree program in Wisconsin. This is just one of the many gems you’ll discover on our campus while you are here.
At UWM, we are making waves in the Milwaukee community, throughout Wisconsin and far beyond. Come learn about the many ways our students, faculty, staff and alumni have become wavemakers whose enduring impact is having a positive effect on the world around us.
I encourage you to make your arrangements to join us in June. I look forward to seeing you then!
Sincerely,

Dr. Thomas Gibson
Chancellor
