What is L&S?
The College of Letters & Science is the heart of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
L&S is the largest college on campus and is at the center of a liberal education. From math to English, music to physics, political science to chemistry, the College runs the full gamut of the Wisconsin Experience.
Our students thrive as critical thinkers. We learn from internationally renown faculty and we participate in research that asks hard questions and comes up with life-changing answers.

And they are 27% less likely than their male counterparts to get tenure after securing a tenure-track post. The report advises universities and funding agencies tocreate family-friendly policies, including six weeks of paid maternity leave and a week of paid parental leave. from Nature vol. 462 page 375 (Nov 18, 2009)
