About the BarnardsDavid and Kathleen (Kay) Barnard have been involved with the University of Wisconsin-Stout for over 70 years. Kay came to Stout as a transfer student in 1938. After raising a family she went on to have a successful career in education. Dave transferred to Stout as a student in 1940 and was hired in 1946 to teach graphic arts and audio-visual education.
