Most pre-medical students major in Biology or Chemistry because of the number of courses required in these areas but keep in mind that other majors are possible. "Pre-medical" is not a major on its own. Requirements for a declared major and minor must be met to graduate. Students have the greatest success in applying to a medical school in the state in which they reside. For most UW-RF students these schools include the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, the University of Wisconsin in Madison, and the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis and Duluth. These schools have similar course requirements for admission. Recommended Curriculum To meet medical school course requirements and prepare for the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) it is suggested that you follow a curriculum similar to that outlined below: FRESHMAN YEAR Chemistry 121, 122 (General Chemistry I and II and Lab I and II) English 111, 112 (Freshman English) Math 146, 147 (College Algebra and College Algebra and Trig) Biology 150 (General Biology) and, if possible, Biology 230 (General Zoology)

PRINT THIS STORY Wisconsin schools 11th most segregated in country Last Updated: July 18, 2001 at 7:16:22 a.m. Almost two-thirds of white students in Wisconsin do not attend school with a black student, following a national trend toward resegregation, a Harvard University study said. The study, released Tuesday, measured school populations based on race between 1980 and 1998 in 28 states. Wisconsin and Rhode Island showed the greatest increases in segregation, the study said. In Wisconsin, an average of 30.5 percent of white students attended schools with black students during the 1998-99 school year, down from an average of 44.5 percent in 1980, the study said. In Rhode Island, the average percentage declined to 43.4 percent from 65.8 percent. Wisconsin was ranked 11th most segregated in the study, which looked at the percentage of blacks in mostly white schools, the percentage of blacks in schools where the student body was at least 90 percent minority and the average percentage of whites in schools attended by blacks.

One of the greatest needs of our time is that of providing educational opportunities for adults to participate in continuous and lifelong learning. To meet this need, adult and continuing education organizations are being challenged to use new technologies, innovative methods, and alternative approaches as they seek to reach wider audiences. Inclusive continuing education is crucial if adults are to understand and influence the dramatic changes in the world in which they live. The increasing inter-relatedness and inter-dependency of political, social, and economic forces, the increasing pressure for continuous improvements in quality along with reduced cycle times, the accelerating tempo of scientific and technological innovation, changing patterns of living resulting from shifting demographics, and the pervasive influence of mass communications, are examples of some of the factors that have wide implications for adult education.

Great Lakes History: A General View Navigate this page... Establishing Trade Introduction of Disease Intermarriage and Economic Change Great Britain and Tecumseh ... Related Topics and Resources Illustrations (click for full-size images) Explorers and Traders Jesuit Missionaries Black Hawk Tens-qua-ta-wa The Great Lakes is a chain of inland lakes Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, and Lake Superior stretching from New York to Minnesota. Because they comprise such a large waterway, they have played a vital role in the lives and histories of Indian peoples who have resided along their shores for millennia. Most Indian groups living in the Great Lakes region for the last five centuries are of the Algonkian language family. This includes such present-day Wisconsin tribes as the Menominee, Ojibwe, and Potawatomi. Some tribessuch as the Stockbridge-Munsee and the Brothertownare also Algonkian-speaking tribes who relocated from the eastern seaboard to the Great Lakes region in the nineteenth century. The Oneida who live near Green Bay belong to the Iroquois language group and the Ho-chunk of Wisconsin are one of the few Great Lakes tribes to speak a Siouan language. Although there have been many differences in language and customs between different Indian tribes, Great Lakes Indian communities have had many things in common. They comprise a general culture called "Woodland" after its adaptation to North America's northeastern and southeastern woodlands. Woodland Indian societies have depended to a large degree on forest products for their survival, and Great Lakes Indians hunted, fished, gathered wild foods, and practiced agriculture for their subsistence. In many parts of the Great Lakes particularly northern Wisconsin Indians depended on wild rice as a dietary staple, while Indians in areas without wild rice generally cultivated corn. Where sugar maples grow, Great Lakes Indians established sugar-making camps in early spring and made sugar from tree sap.

Environmental Education in Wisconsin What the Textbooks Teach: An Executive Summary by Michael Sanera, Ph.D. Introduction Our schools have been charged with preparing the next generation to be conscientious stewards of the planet as well as productive adults and good citizens. We know that tomorrow's adults will grapple with many of the same problems that confront their parents today. It will be up to them to deal intelligently with pollution, species preservation, human population growth, and other environmental problems. It is very important, therefore, that education about these vital issues include a solid grounding in the body of accepted scientific and economic knowledge as well as information about evolving research, theories, and possible remedies. Research Methodology The objective of this study is to evaluate what the average Wisconsin student learns about the environment. To implement this objective, I use content analysis to evaluate how the textbooks used in 12 Wisconsin school districts educate students about enviromental issues. These 12 districts were selected at random based on size. Large, medium, and small school districts were selected to provide a good cross-section of the student population in Wisconsin. I constructed my content analysis around three basic questions as they apply to each environmental issue: Do the texts fairly and accurately state the facts which are generally agreed upon by scientists working on the issue?

He was visited one day by Little Red House, whose used truck had broken down almost immediately after he bought it from a dealership. In investigating the contract, Doyle found that the interest rate wasn't accurately disclosed, which he believed violated the Truth in Lending Act not just for his client but for any customer. Filing a class-action suit, Doyle, who said he was a little full of himself, was excited about handling a big case and boosted by his successes in the lower courts. Reality hit, though, when Little Red House came to him two years into the case, which was on appeal, and asked if he might get his truck anytime soon. "Public service isn't what I decide it is," Doyle said at the Attorney General Robert Abrams Public Service Lecture at NYU School of Law. "It's making sure my eyes are open and I understand what people need."

Current Trends Use of Smokeless Tobacco - Wisconsin The recent marked increase in smokeless tobacco use, predominantly by pre-adolescent and adolescent males, has prompted action on local, and Federal level. Smokeless tobacco product have apparantly bacome popular among student in school across tho United States. Data from various regions of the country indicate that 8%-36% of main high school- and colleqe-age student use smokeless tobacco products regularly (1). One study reported on 11% usage rate among 8 to 9-year-olds (2) and a recent U.S. Inspector General's national survey reported the overall average age at first use to be 10.4 years of age-in the 5th grade (3). Two other recent surveys reported 35% and 36% smokeless tobacco use in male adolescent populations in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (4), and Arkansas (5), respectively. Data on smokeless tobacco usage among Wisconsin school-age children reflect national trends. A 1985 Dane County youth survey (6) of students in grades 7-12 showed that more males used smokeless tobacco than smoked cigarettes. For example, 45% of 8th-grade boys reported that they had tried smokeless tobacco at least once. Regular use of smokeless tobacco products increased from 9% of 7th-qrade boys to 22% of 12th-grade boys (Table 1). Fifteen percent of 12th-grade boys were daily users. Other praliminary data from the Wisconsin Division of Health for Project Model Health for rural Wisconsin schools demonstrate the following: 22% of 8th-grade boys in specific schools are regular users of smokeless tobacco; 35% of 8th-grede girls have triod amo~olaaa tobacco; 12 years is the mean age of initiating smokeless tobacco use; among regular users, the students chew or dip smokeless tobacco an avarage of 6 times/day, with 25% chewing or dipping over 10 times/day; the average duration time per dip or chew is 1 hour. On the basis of these data, the Wisconsin Division of Hearth has projected that one in five pre-adolescent and adolescent males Ia a regular smokeless tobacco user in specific Wisconsin communities.
