We are #SoHEProud of Brelynn Bille '24, who was featured in a Wisconsin Public Radio article about celebrating Disability Pride Month in Wisconsin. As a Human Ecology student, Brelynn was instrumental in creating a community space on the UW–Madison campus for students with disabilities to feel included, express themselves freely and connect with others who share similar experiences. She has also petitioned for July to be officially recognized as Disability Pride Month in Wisconsin since 2022: https://lnkd.in/grKCCuBW #HumanEcology

Studying B.S. Major in Interior Architecture. Minoring in Architecture and Sustainability. Always curious to learn more. Interested in the sustainability and accessibility standpoints of design. IDO member, IIDA Member
Today was my last day of my internship at LiLu Interiors. I cannot express enough how much of an amazing experience this was. I learned so much about fabrics, the design process, and being a designer in real life. I want to thank everyone in International Market Sqaure for being so friendly, supporting me, and teaching me so much. A special thanks to the LiLu team (Jen, Lisa, Delaney, Jacey, and Gray), you all have been amazing and inspired me so much. Thank you for a great summer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Carolee Dodge Francis, the Leola R. Culver Professor in Nonprofits and Philanthropy and department chair and professor of Civil Society & Community Studies, was recently featured in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel about the Tribal Elder Food Box program expansion. This program provides traditional and nutritious food to Native American elders, adressing food insecurity while also supporting Indigenous food sovereignty. The initiative has gained traction—emphasizing the value of culturally relevant foods in improving health outcomes for Native communities and creating plans to scale up production in order to meet the growing demand.

Kasey Keeler, assistant professor of Civil Society & Community Studies, was featured on Wisconsin Public Radio where she talked about a report focused on the harm done to Native Americans during the boarding school era. In the interview, she discussed how such boarding schools not only stripped children of their cultural identities, but also caused lasting trauma in Native communities. She stresses the importance of addressing this piece of history in order to understand its impact on current Indigenous issues. Head here to read the full interview: https://lnkd.in/gDb2V59K
Nearly 1K students died at federal Indian boarding schools. At least 11 of those schools were in Wisconsin.

In May, I graduated with scholastic distinction from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a Bachelor of Science in Community & Organizational Development and Political Science. Entering college as a first-generation and inner-city student during a pandemic came with its challenges, but I am appreciative of the support from staff, faculty, peers, and former colleagues. I am grateful to the Mercile J. Lee Scholars Program and All-In Milwaukee for awarding me a merit-based, full-ride scholarship that allowed me to graduate debt free and focus on my interests and goals, including completing six internships and two research experiences, holding several campus leadership positions, and a semester abroad in Barcelona. Now, I am excited to share that I will be returning to Guidehouse as a Consultant with the State and Local Government Practice in Chicago! As I begin my career, it is a thank you to my family and community, along with a reminder to continue paying it forward.

We had a great time visiting the Zappos headquarters last week with a group of School of Human Ecology, University of Wisconsin-Madison Consumer Behavior and Marketplace Studies students. It is always a highlight to hear from culture maestro Ryo Hanalei Zsun about how Zappos serves new and existing consumers through exceptional customer service and personalized connection.
Thank you to Nancy Murray, MBA, EdD & Emma Brandenburg for bringing your students to come and visit our Zappos campus. It's always fun to share the Zappos Culture and the ways we like to create WOW experiences for all our customers. Hopefully, I'll make my way up to Madison, WI to come visit your amazing campus again! 🤙😉 #Zappos #CompanyCulture #CX Kohl's Center for Retailing
