The UW-Oshkosh Hall of Fame was established in 1974 to pay tribute and give deserved recognition to former athletes, coaches and friends of the University. The UW-Oshkosh Hall of Fame is intended to enhance school tradition by honoring those people who have shown exceptional athletic ability or who have made positive contributions to the athletic programs of the University while on campus or since graduation.

The UW-Oshkosh Hall of Fame inducts new members every first Sunday in May in UW-Oshkosh's Reeve Memorial Union. Any former athlete, coach or individual who has made a recognizable contribution to the UW-Oshkosh athletic program is eligible for nomination. Athletes must have graduated and completed competition ten years or more prior to consideration. Past UW-Oshkosh coaches and athletic administrators may also be nominated. Deceased nominees will also be considered. Nominations should be sent to UW-Oshkosh Director of Athletics Allen Ackerman.
