There is still time to register for Dairy Summit! CALS is this year’s event host, and we would love to see a strong in-person showing of CALS faculty and staff.

If you are already registered and attending virtually, take a moment and create your conference login and save yourself a few minutes on conference day.

Attending in person? Don’t leave early. All tour participants will get a gift bag full of UW–Madison and Hub-themed merchandise and snacks.
