Program Introduction

The COAST Leader Program is meant to provide UWM students living off campus with information about resources available to them and to improve communication between students and long-term residents.

UWM's Student Association developed the idea of a COAST Leader program at UWM and organized its funding. The pilot of the program is the spring semester of 2008. Based on its success, the program will double in size from six to twelve COAST Leaders for fall of 2008. COAST Leaders work under the direction of the Neighborhood Housing Office.

The Spring 2008 COAST Leaders and the blocks they're responsible
for are:

  • Austin Baade: 2900-3000 N. Murray Ave.
  • Michael Balkman: 3000-3100 N. Cramer St.
  • Dan Carpenter: 2900-3000 N. Maryland Ave.
