University Council

UW-Washington County's University Council is the community and outreach body of the campus. University Council has played and continues to play a critical role in acquainting the public with the cultural and artistic offerings of UW-Washington County, and has worked closely with local government agencies to make them aware of the benefits that the campus brings to our entire community.

The Council has also helped our commuter campus build a sense of community that brings students, staff and faculty together. Opening and closing all-campus picnics are sponsored by Council as are events welcoming new faculty and staff to the community. Their work has helped UW-Washington County achieve its record enrollments and outstanding retention of first year students.

University Council officers include:

• Ruth Schmitt, President
• Norbert Dettmann, Vice President
• Ray Werhand, Treasurer

Other Council members include: Paul DeChant, Scott Henke, Barbara Herther, Janet Hubbell, Allan Kieckhafer, Sue McCullough, Dr. Don Muth, Margaret Nielsen, Margaret Pok, Bob Ramsthal, and Nancy Van Vooren. Campus representatives include Paul Price, Dean and Sue Bausch, Director of University Relations.
