Wisconsin State University ConferenceThe Wisconsin State University Conference (or WSUC) is a former intercollegiate college athletic conference that was formed in July 1913 as the Wisconsin State Normal Conference. As implied by the name, all member institutions were located in the State of Wisconsin. The WSUC sponsored competitions and championships in basketball, football, and other sports. Charter members included La Crosse, Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Platteville, River Falls, Stevens Point, Superior, and Whitewater. Other members included Eau Claire (joined 1917) and Stout (1914). Milwaukee left the conference in 1964. All of these schools were (and remain) State institutions, most of them originally founded as normal schools in the late 19th century, then successfully renamed as state teachers colleges, state colleges, and state universities before becoming campuses of the University of Wisconsin System in 1971. In July 1997, the nine members of the WSUC merged with the Wisconsin Womens Intercollegiate Athletic Conference to form the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
