In 2017, one UW Madison student created a Facebook group for students to share their own comedic jabs at campus life through memes. Today, the group has grown to nearly 30,000 members – and the community is shaping campus culture and discourse.
This week on New Domains, we hear from Shane Linden – the founder of UW Memes for Milk-Chugging Teens – and one current admin, Eddie Estevez. They explain the group’s origins and the importance of memes in student life.
