  • Do I have to be a UWM student to Join SC/UWM?
    No. While the majority of our members are students, or have some other affiliation with the University (i.e. alumni, faculty, or staff), the Club is open to members of the community.
    Community members are a valued resource for the Club as they often contribute time, expertise, and continuity beyond that of a changing student population--some of our best sailors learned to sail with SC/UWM after they reached the age of 50.

    No. The Club's instructional program is designed to fit the needs of the individual student/member.

  • How long does my membership last ?
    Each membership is good for a full year from the the date you join. I. e. if you join in August 2002, you are in good standing until end of July 2003.
