For a long time, there was that box of photos tucked away in one of the administrative offices. Then it got shuffled when we moved around offices, and it got put into that long dark storage where we put things we don’t know what to do with. But then, we found it. And we decided to spend a summer taking those pictures through a digitization program, and putting them into some kind of order. Yes, there’s likely duplicates and we’ve probably got some people identified incorrectly, but isn’t it nice to take a walk through the Math Department’s photo history?
Check out our https://photos.math.wisc.edu website. We’ll post pictures we’ve been taking along the way too. Got a photo to share? Send it to mathnews@math.wisc.edu (points if you identify who is in the photo!) and we’ll get it added!
