University of Wisconsin–Madison

Cap Times checks out Morgridge Hall

Trinity Krohn used to scurry around the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus for her classes. Double majoring in computer sciences and data science, with a certificate in entrepreneurship, Krohn’s studies often drew her to different buildings. Now a new, central place will serve Krohn and other students learning to become software engineers and data scientists and analysts: Morgridge Hall. At the corner of University Avenue and North Orchard Street, the 343,000-square-foot building stands seven stories tall, with an additional floor below ground.
