To celebrate the Ebling family’s relationship with the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the natural world, you are invited to a celebration with the family and members of the Lakeshore Nature Preserve and Madison communities. The Ebling family’s generosity has given this campus the Ebling Library in the Health Sciences Learning Center that honors Dr. Paul Ebling, the Ebling Symposium Center in the Microbial Sciences Building that honors Professor Walter Ebling, and, now, the Ebling Council Ring that honors Elsie Iwen Ebling, who dedicated her life to her family and to the advancement of art.
