In turn, learning about all the different dimensions of identity helped me to understand an identify different than myself and empathize with them. I think this is especially beneficial on a large campus with people from around the world and multiple backgrounds. I have learned to be accepting of everyone and never make assumptions about anybody. This will help my Wisconsin Experience through compassion, being able to understand a person, and be cautious of other’s backgrounds and cultures. The history, culture, and purpose of UW-Madison are related to the Wisconsin Idea. UW-Madison was established in 1838 but first classes didn’t meet until February 5, 1849. This is the idea the UW-Madison, a research university, should share its research and knowledge from the university throughout the state. This idea will influence my Wisconsin Experience by sharing whatever knowledge, programs, and research I learn throughout my time
