In and around Porter Falls
University Communications sits in Millwright Hall and handles the parts of Porter that outlast any one semester — the archives in Halvorsen Library, the fact book, the response when a reporter from the Lake City paper calls. The founding manual-training mission from 1893 is still the reference point for most of what this office says publicly.
The practical details
Contact: University Communications, Millwright Hall. Public areas: News gathering generally allowed. Classrooms, halls, labs, clinics: By coordination and consent. These specifics can shift from term to term, so confirm anything time-sensitive — a deadline, an appointment, an eligibility rule — before you count on it.
If you have a question
This is handled by University Communications (Millwright Hall, Room 210). Call (715) 555-0250 or email news@uwporterfalls.edu during the fall and spring terms, or use MyPorter to send a message or book a time. If another office turns out to own the question, they will pass it along rather than send you back to the beginning.
Fictional information
UW–Porter Falls is a work of parody. Every office, person, building, phone number and statistic on this page is invented; nothing here describes a real institution or a service you can actually contact.
