For more than 30 years, Grainger Hall has been home to state-of-the-art classrooms, quiet study spots, and one of UW–Madison’s most visited libraries. From hosting C-suite leaders and acrobatic performers (yes, really) to watching students ace midterms, land internships, and return as alumni, this building has seen it all.
Now, Grainger is preparing for its next chapter—a major first-floor renovation featuring modern study spaces, tech-forward classrooms, and vibrant community hubs. Built in 1993 and supported by generous benefactors David W. Grainger and Juli Plant Grainger, it continues to be a space where Business Badgers grow, learn, and connect. #WSB125 #GraingerHall
