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.

Tenure or family?
Marriage and childbirth are what stop most female US graduate students from becoming tenured researchers, according to a report by Washington DC think tank the Center for American Progress (CAP) and the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law. Staying Competitive: Patching America’s Leaky Pip...eline in the Sciences found that married mothers with a PhD are 35% less likely to enter a tenure-track position in the sciences than married fathers with PhDs, according to a National Science Foundation survey. 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)
