The campaign is a combined effort to maintain accessibility to the excellent education offered by UW-L for all students. UW-L Student Nick Bezier shares his La Crosse experience in short video testimonial.
Every school claims to be unique and special. It’s not the bricks and mortar that make a university stand out. It’s the people. It’s the memories. It’s the opportunities. And something as special as the La Crosse Experience needs to be preserved for future generations. It’s our turn to share this experience with those who want to follow in our footsteps.
The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, in partnership with the UW-L Foundation, is proud to launch the $15 million Share the La Crosse Experience Scholarship Campaign. The campaign is a combined effort to maintain accessibility to the excellent education offered by UW-L for all students.
As state support for higher education has declined, UW-L students have had to shoulder an increasing percentage of their educational costs. In the 1980s the state supported about 75 percent of the cost of education. Today the state supports less than 30 percent.

“I don’t think there is much more important in life than to learn. There is so much we can experience from learning,” says Bezier. “Knowing someone is there who is willing to put some of their personal investment on the line for you is really something I think that drives a lot of students to succeed.”
