What common character traits are found within the Wisconsin dancers?
Dedication is a common thread between the team members. Each dancer displays a great understanding in the tradition of UW-Madison and in the pride that their roles carry in representing this tradition at numerous athletic and public relations events. To dance for Wisconsin requires a fair deal of sacrifice. If the UW Football team qualifies for a Bowl game, the team gives up a majority of their Winter Break to travel to a Bowl game and UDA Nationals in Orlando, FL. At times, holidays such as Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, New Year’s Eve are days set aside for support of Wisconsin Athletics than for family. However, in spite of this sacrifice, the Wisconsin Dancers believe the benefits far outweigh these costs.
