Ducks invade campus

Thousands of yellow plastic ducks will line Bascom Hill and float in fountains near Library Mall and Engineering Hall Tuesday, Sept. 3, the first day of classes.

The flocks are part of the Registrar’s Office “Get Your Ducks In a Row” promotion to raise awareness of Web-based course enrollment and registration through the My UW Madison portal.

Free for the taking by students, the ducks are sponsored by the Wisconsin Alumni Association. Any leftover ducks will be collected Wednesday, Sept. 4, and donated to campus child care centers.
