Read On, Wisconsin! | Wisconsin Badgers

‘Read On, Wisconsin!’ is made possible through the cooperation and support of public libraries across the state of Wisconsin. Specific libraries and their locations will be revealed later this month. 

Presented by the Patterson Foundation, ‘Read On, Wisconsin!’ helps further the foundation’s mission to strengthen the efforts of people, organizations and communities by focusing on issues that address common aspirations, foster wide participation and encourage learning and sharing. With a focus on literacy, the Badgers’ summer campaign will help foster and celebrate young readers as the school year wraps up and summer reading begins. 

Sue Solie Patterson earned two degrees, a bachelor of science and a master of fine arts, from the University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Education.
