Was there discussion about getting rid of “Madison” since there are campuses in Reedsburg, Portage, Fort Atkinson and Watertown in addition to the many campuses in Madison?
Yes, the discussion took place. Since we are not a coalition of colleges, but an assemblage of accessible campuses that make up one community college it made sense to focus on the right name for the college in general. The new logo has been adapted for each campus so that both Madison Area Technical College and the specific campus name are both prominent.
