The year 1975 was one to remember. As the Vietnam War came to an end and Ted Bundy’s arrest dominated headlines, the invention of Pet Rocks and mood rings — and lots of Miller Lite — kept spirits lifted. In the sports world, you might have watched Ali defeat Frazier at the “Thrilla in Manila” or celebrated as UW rowers clinched the school’s first women’s national championship. Your eyes were glued to Saturday Night Live and Wheel of Fortune as they aired their first episodes, and A Chorus Line debuted on Broadway. But you, too, were a singular sensation 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 reconnect with your Badger community! 

Dates and further details will be announced soon. We hope to see you in person and will continue to post updates. 

See more memories from your graduation year in the 1975 edition of the Wisconsin Badger yearbook.
