Student sleds down Bascom Hill after engaging in the "Battle for Bascom," an epic snowball fight held on Bascom Hill at the University of Wisconsin–Madison during winter on Dec. 1, 2025. Neva who originally came for the snow ball fight says, “I’ve also never sled. I’m from Hawaii so this is crazy new.” The spirited battle pits members of the Lakeshore residence halls against those from the Southeast residence halls. This year marks the first time this event was held since 2020, and the Lakeshore team claimed victory. (Photo by Taylor Wolfram / UW–Madison)
