Happy Retirement, Janine!

For almost 14 years at URock, Janine has made a difference in the lives of so many students. Her dedication, support, and care have left a lasting impact, and the students whose lives she has touched will not forget it.

The Student Government Association will miss her greatly. Thank you, Janine, for the encouragement, guidance, and positive influence you have shared with our campus community throughout the years.

Congratulations on this well-deserved retirement. It won’t be the same here without her. We wish Janine all the best as she begins this new chapter and hope it brings her happiness, relaxation, and plenty of time to enjoy the things she loves.

Congratulations to the more than 3,500 Warhawks who earned a spot on the Dean's List for Spring 2026. This achievement reflects your hard work and dedication.

Congratulations to our graduates!

Last month on Earth Day, URock’s Green Scene Environmental Club attended an Earth Day celebration event in Evansville, WI! It was a great opportunity to connect with the community, promote environmental awareness, and celebrate the importance of protecting our planet.

The event featured Victor Gensini , a leading expert on severe weather and hailstorms, who gave a great presentation on extreme weather and its growing impacts.

We appreciate the Janesville Gazette for sharing Jasmine’s inspiring story and her advocacy for the blind community.
