The year 1974 was one to remember. As the Watergate scandal and Patty Hearst’s kidnapping dominated headlines, the passage of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the scanning of the first barcode forever changed the way we shop. On the small screen, UW alumnus Thomas L. Miller ’62 brought “the Fonz” to life when he produced Happy Days, and the front doors of an iconic house closed for the last time as The Brady Bunch aired its final episode. In the sports world, you might have watched Ali knock out Foreman at the “Rumble in the Jungle” or saw Hank Aaron beat Babe Ruth’s home run record, but you, too, hit it out of the park as you graduated from the University of Wisconsin–Madison!
Now, it’s time to celebrate with an exclusive Badger weekend held in your honor. Don’t miss this golden opportunity to commemorate your time at your alma mater and to reconnect with your Badger community!
We hope to see you in person and will continue to post updates.
See more memories from your graduation year in the 1974 edition of the Badger yearbook.
