 Meet the Board  

Mitch Farrey (MSPM, '11), Distance Education Alumni Board member
"Follow along on social media to stay in touch. Reach out to the Alumni Association, UW-Platteville Foundation, and former professors. Many people think that the only way to give back is to write a check, but there is so much more you can do, and people are always in need of volunteers for all kind of events and projects."  
Meet the rest of the Alumni Board here. If you're interested in joining the board or would like to know more, email Jill Bisco, President, at distedalumni@uwplatt.edu.
