Customer Reviews
Well done
I love the idea of condensed lecture podcasts; they're like appetizers for the brain. Keep up the great work UW!
Cheers,
Kevin
Informative
The 5 min format forces speakers to be clear and to the point. Perfect - thanks for the info ... If only mass media were this informative, we wouldn't lag the world on our test scores. Thanks U of Wisconsin!
Unveiling The Unseen
Did not see the exhibits, the lecture was usless.
