We just absolutely love the Learning Gardens. My daughter started when she was 8 months old and the…read morenewborn teachers, Ms. JJ and Ms. Breanna were just amazing with her. Their excitement and energy every morning at drop off just made my heart so happy knowing that they were genuinely happy to see her! Now she is in the 1-year-old classroom with Ms. Maddie, and to see the joy on my daughter's face at drop off is just the best! Maddie is so wonderful with Blake and I just love hearing all the stories about her day/accomplishments at pick up! They do a great job of sending updates throughout the day, and our favorite part are the photos they share! And the chef and kitchen menu is awesome! It always smells so delicious at drop off and they give the kids a great, healthy variety of foods. Last thing is, even from the beginning, when I would drop her off, ALL of the teachers would greet Blake by name as we walked down to her classroom. How special is that?? Couldn't be happier that my daughter gets to go to daycare here!

The Red Gym aka Bowser's Castle sits to the right of the Student Union a block off of State Street…read more It hosts student orientations on the first floor and the Multicultural Student Center, International Student Center, and other orgs sit on the second. Like a weirdo, but proud alum, I stopped by last month to do some work there (while I saw students cram for finals). Other things to know: - Paid parking available on Langdon Street. - They have a service elevator. - The second floor hosts lots of student org meetings. How I miss being a student. I love me some Red Gym!

This is to review the University of Wisconsin - Madison. I chose to work at U.W. - Madison…read morebecause my undergrad and graduate degrees from U.C. Berkeley concerned vitamin research. As an undergrad, I did lab research on vitamin B6, and for my Ph.D., I did lab research on folic acid and vitamin B12. And so, it was a no-brainer that I should do my post-doctoral work at U.W. - Madison. U.W. - Madison is renowned for many of the early discoveries in the field of vitamin research, for example, for its introduction of the rat as the animal of choice for performing research on vitamins, amino acid metabolism, protein requirements, and so on. It was at U.W. - Madison, that the vitamins were first classified as being, "fat-soluble A" and "water-soluble B." At Madison, all of my work concerned vitamin K. Prof. H. DeLuca, and his laboratory staff at U.W. -- Madison are renowned for their work on vitamin D and vitamin A. SCIENTIFIC AND ARTISTIC ENVIRONMENT. U.W.--Madison is home to 20 Nobel Prize winners and 33 winners of the Pulitzer Prize. The Nobel Prize winners include, Joshua Lederberg (1958, Medicine), Har Gobind Khorana (1968, Medicine), Howard Temin (1975, Medicine), and John Van Vleck (1977, Physics), William C. Campbell, (2015 Medicine), Oliver Smithies (2007 Medicine). During my 4 years of residence and employment in Madison, the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art was my connection to the world of art and, in particular to the group of Chicago-based artists known as The Chicago Imagists. An exhibit of Richard Lostutter's paintings at this museum inspired me to drive to Chicago, and view paintings by the Chicago Imagists, including paintings by Ed Paschke, Roger Brown, and Sarah Canright. SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT. The social environment at U.W. -- Madison is provided by the many Mini-Courses that are taught at the two student unions (Union South and Memorial Union). Four of the people in my laboratory were members of a clogging group, The Kickapoo Cloggers, and they suggested that I learn. And so, I took courses in clogging, tap dancing, jazz exercise, and ballroom dancing, all of these being taught in Union South. When I arrived in Madison, I was a total nerd and had no skill in dancing. But after two years of training, I was good enough to perform, and I performed with my group in front of audiences numbering from about 100 to about 500, and these included performances at State Capitol building (see, attached photo of me performing, YOU NEED TO CLICK ON THIS PHOTO TO SEE ALL OF IT), and at bluegrass festivals in Edgerton, WI, Amherst, WI, Edgerton, WI, Ashland, WI, Mount Horeb, WI, Verona, WI, Kahoka, MO, Delevan, WI, and Rockford, IL. Football games are a big deal at Univ. Wisconsin -- Madison. Please see my photograph of the marching band carrying sousaphones. The marching band plays at every football game. CULTURAL AND AGRICULTURAL ENVIRONMENT. Wisconsin was settled by immigrants arriving from German and Norway. The Memorial Union has a Stiftskeller where the walls bear murals having a German theme (see, the photo of me in the Stiftskeller, and a close-up photo of one of the murals). Regarding Norwegians, Sytende Mai (independence day) is a holiday that is celebrated in some towns in Wisconsin, for example, by an annual parade in Stoughton, WI. The nearby town of Mount Horeb is a center for Norwegian culture. Madison, Roxbury, Milwaukee, and other towns are distinguished by their German restaurants. In addition, every year a few farms in the Madison area feature, DAY ON THE FARM, where any person can visit a farm and see displays relating to crop harvesting, veterinary science, or cheese-making.

In January 2026 I decided to move my GP care from Rush-Chicago to UW Maddison. I'm a post cancer…read morepatient with multiple system involvement and wanted a GP closer to home. I made an appointment as a new patient with Dr. Shigdha Volety's office and was scheduled for April. After 4 months, the Monday before my Friday appointment, Dr. Volety's nurse called to inform me that she does not prescribe narcotics or benzos and asked if I still wanted the appointment. I was surprised, and offended. My hope was for new, excellent medical care, not drug use. 'Of course', I said, and kept the appointment. I had prepared extensively on my part to begin with a new GP from my new home. On Wednesday her office called again and cancelled the appointment, without an explanation and said her next available appointment was for August. Clearly it seems, after reviewing my case, someone decided that they didn't want me as a patient.

We did not realize how many shapes he knew, and this is a direct testament to how amazing the teachers are at Goddard. The bar was pretty low for us when we started; we were hoping to find a new daycare that would minimally change a diaper more than twice a day. And we have gotten so much more!! I saw one teacher cry tears of joy because her student was graduating to the next level; that's how much she cared about her kids. The first time my son pooped on the potty, every single teacher at pickup (and the director!!) told me how they celebrated with him! I'm so grateful for the amazing curriculum and the caring staff. This is the village we didn't know we needed, and I'm grateful for everything they provide.

Her teacher is the sweetest and always greets you with a smile. I have worked at this school since December of 2021 and they have been incredible to me as an employer. Not only did they allow me the medical leave I needed at short notice, but they accepted me back after 2 months with open arms. They are some of the kindest and most understanding people I've ever met and I love working here! We're like a family. Not only do they treat their staff well but we have some of the best staff and teachers for the children. We love all of our kids and they love us!

I THINK THIS IS THE SWEETEST THING EVER. P.P.P.S. You can tell the student what you need as they can't read minds and some may not know. I've went through 2-3 class cycles (as they graduate) and each person works for me. P.P.P.P.S - No real frills but decent music. And they'll use what you bring in with no complaints. REAL KEEPER: I get massages at the places that I love quarterly but BLue Sky fits my monthly needs especially after a real cross fit showing or visit with my brother and he thinks it's okay to run me hard like some 60-70's old school gym teacher (think Seinfield...CAN"TSTANDYA gym coach that was homeless but still hoarding George's Library book that he had to pay the THOUSAND Dollar plus fine on).

Though the make you buy books you rarely use. some of the…read moreteachers are awesome others have no idea what they are talking about and only teach what they remember or are interested in. it is a very intense school as far as what you learn in the short amount of time. BE PREPARED TO STUDY!!! There is a test or exam just about every day!! the reason I give them a 2 star is not the studying or hard work you will put in....its the administration!!! This is NOT a student friendly school. they will try to squeeze every penny they can out of you (though they claim to be not for profit) there are all types of hidden fees. the school does not try to make things accommodating for there students. you will not receive any financial aid until you are almost dome with school so do not plan on having this money for bills. there is about 18-20 hours a week of independent study you are required outside of school classes that they vaguely tell you about saying a few hours outside of class. you are required to do clinic shifts which they tell you about but they fail to mention they are out side of class hours and are scheduled around the school and NOT YOUR schedule if you cant make it you must find a replacement and it could push back your graduation. Also they have a hard time filling appointments for you and you are required a certain amount of appointments to graduate so their failure to book appointments can also push back your graduation. **** Basically if you like to learn on your own (with good material) have lots of free time and don't mind a school who doesn't care about you and only wants your money and may belittle you, or yell at you in front of other students or in their private office.......this is the school for you!!!!!!
