Draft:School of Computer, Data & Information Sciences (University of Wisconsin-Madison)

Submission declined on 2 October 2025 by DoubleGrazing (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

The School of Computer, Data & Information Sciences is a division of the University of Wisconsin-Madison uniting its computer science and statistics departments with its information school. It was created in 2019 to unite these three previously separate units.^[1] The school's vision is to drive university leadership in AI and support a growing number of students interested in majoring in computing-related areas. ^[2]

In 2025, construction was finished on a building dedicated to the department.^[3] The building is called Morgridge Hall in honor of John Morgridge, who donated more than half of the cost of the building. ^[4]
