The Rath Foundation - An Enduring Legacy at UW-Madison

Thank you so much for the Rath Foundation Scholarship. I could not believe it when I first heard the news. I remember getting ready for my after-school job and receiving an email to view my award. There is no way I would have guessed the generous blessing I was about to receive. This scholarship allowed me to pursue the Wisconsin Experience to the fullest, from my first semester on campus to my last. The countless hours I dedicated to developing myself in and out of the classroom, building relationships with my peers, and preparing to enter my field wouldn't have been possible without your generous support. The University of Wisconsin-Madison gave me unmatched preparation to enter a role on Wall Street after graduation. I started an investment banking job at Oppenheimer & Co. on the mergers and acquisitions team this July. It was clear from day one that Wisconsin gave me a top undergraduate experience that rivals any Ivy League school. There is a reputation that alumni from the undergraduate program in the Wisconsin School of Business are some of the top analysts in their classes at any given bank on Wall Street, and I have come to believe it.
