Hoofer Advisors, working as part of the Outdoor Programs Office, provide support and resources to Hoofer leaders, including resources from the Wisconsin Union and the University and often act as liaisons for Hoofers within the university-at-large.
The primary purpose is to help student leaders to learn and further develop support for their clubs and their leaders, and help Hoofer leaders fulfill their missions.
