UW-Whitewater

Maddy Heling, an entrepreneurship major from Shawano, conducted undergraduate research at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater during the 2025 fall semester.

The Undergraduate Research, Innovative and Creative Activities (URICA) program offers a variety of programs aimed to connect students with faculty mentors and provide them with research opportunities.

Outside Madison’s Wingra School on a sunny fall afternoon, Ho-Chunk artist and horticulturist Lightning New Rider was busy measuring canvas and preparing twine.

He was there to help the students refurbish the school’s ciiporoke, a Ho-Chunk structure made with bent tree saplings tied together to make a frame and often covered with natural materials like birch tree bark or woven mats — or, in this case, canvas.

Cinnamon rolls are a sweet addition to any breakfast, and, in fact, are great to eat at any time of day. Although I enjoy the traditional cinnamon rolls served warm with a glaze, sometimes I also enjoy them cold with cream cheese frosting.
