Joe will be greatly missed. All of Milwaukee is saddened by the loss of his gregarious spirit, his thoughtfulness and his love for sharing good food. His generosity was boundless. – at Des Moines, IA
Joe Bartolotta, Co-Owner of The Bartolotta Restaurants, passed away peacefully in his sleep with a smile on his face last night. Joe is beloved by the Milwaukee community for his hospitality heart, generosity and love of all. The family asks for privacy at this time.

This is a longtime Republican figure who is no longer a Walker supporter. I don't know how representative his reaction is, but I wonder if WI GOP has underestimated the negative perceptions outside its core supporters toward what they're doing in lame-duck session right now

On this #StrongWomanWednesday we pay tribute to Sister Joel Read. Her leadership and vision helped to create the Alverno we know and love today. She was a trailblazer who embodied our mission to empower women, and her legacy reaches far beyond campus.
