Throwback Thursday: We’re the Kids in America

Happy 4th of July from Terrace Views! Here we find a few male military trainees and female students cozy up outside the steps of Memorial Union some time during the mid-40s. Need plans for the 4th? Although you won’t see fireworks from the Terrace this year, performances from fun scientist Professor Shakhashiri, the University of Wisconsin Marching Band, Hometown Sweethearts and more are sure to make this Independence Day one to remember!

Take a look back in time each week with Throwback Thursdays as we post photos and snapshots from the Union’s amazing history. Find out interesting facts and stories from some of the Union’s favorite people, places and things. We’re eager to hear your stories and memories from the Union as well, so share in the comments section below!
