A heavy, wet snow coats a stone plaque mounted on South Hall - the home of L&S Administration - in March. Symbolizing academic freedom, the sign, a gift from the Class of 1955 and approved by the Board of Regents, references a quote from the Bible (John 8:32) and reads "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

We're really good.
The College of Letters & Science is the heart of UW-Madison.
But maybe we're the brain. Or the spine.
We're whatever part of the University's body that recruits top faculty who are dedicated to teaching and learning.
And the proof is in the pudding -- Letters & Science faculty have again taken top honors in this year's prestigious campus teaching awards.
Of a possible 38 awards, our faculty took home 23.

Congratulations to our faculty, staff and students who make it an honor to be a part of the University of Wisconsin-Madison!
