Don't Miss the 2018 Biennial Reunion
|
|
Real Estate Badger alumni and friends will converge on the campus of the University of Wisconsin Madison for the 2018 Biennial Wisconsin Real Estate Conference and Reunion. The program, set for September 13-15, will kick off with the Biennial Welcome Reception to be held lakeside on the Edgewater's Grand Plaza on Thursday. Don't miss a chance to "say cheese" and pose with Bucky Badger at this year's lakeside photo booth available during the Welcome Reception. Alumni and guests will also enjoy a mystifying performance by Oz Pearlman who will entertain banquet attendees with his mind reading and sensational sleight of hand skills. The banquet will wrap up in UW real estate badger style with a post banquet 5th quarter cocktails on the plaza.
The program will convene on Friday at the newly renovated Memorial Union with a first-rate speaker program. A Fireside Chat will be offered with Matthew Bronfman, Managing Director of Jamestown Properties, who will be interviewed by incoming UW Professor Dr. Mark Eppli. Dr. Eppli will join the Graaskamp Center for Real Estate as Director in August 2018. To register and learn more about other highlights planned for the upcoming Biennial, visit the
