Dear Warhawk Community,

It is with great sadness we announce the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater has been notified that one of our Warhawk students has passed away. Zachary (Zac) Wasendorf, a political science major with a minor in leadership and military science, passed away on Friday, June 4. Zac was proudly serving as a sergeant in the Wisconsin National Guard and was an active member in Phi Delta Theta fraternity.

The UW-Whitewater flag will fly at half-staff on Thursday, June 10, in honor of Zac’s memory.

A public gathering will be held on Thursday, June 10, from 4 to 7 p.m. at Gunderson West Funeral and Cremation Care, located at 7435 University Avenue in Middleton, Wisconsin. Military funeral honors by the Wisconsin Army National Guard will take place at 6 p.m.
