It is the responsibility of the individual wrestler and his coach to monitor academic status. The NCWA does not track individual academic performance but will uphold the academic institution's decisions regarding eligibility.

Who was the resident of desning hall Suffolk between1780-1825?
I am descended from the King family that resided at Desning Hall, Gazeley, Suffolk from in the 1700's until 1927. The first of the family to reside there were John & Lucy King (nee Cornell). From them I think it went to their second son William King. After he died it went to their third son, James Cornell King, who married Mary Halls. From them to their son Arthur Cornell King. Arthur married his cousin Eliza King. Their son Sidney Arthur King was the last King family member to reside there, departing in 1927 and moving to nearby Higham. I am not sure of dates but the answer to your question is amongst these names, probably John and Lucy King. Desning Hall was occupied by the King Family from the late 1700's until 1927. The first members of the King family to live at Desning Hall were John King and his wife Lucy (nee Cornell) and their children. This was probably between 1780 and 1825.
Can I get into UW-Madison with a act score of 23 but a 4.0 GPA and being really involved?
It depends. From what it sounds like, you did not challenge yourself very much in your academic work. Having a 4.0 and then a 23 on the ACT generally means that you took easy classes in high school and were unprepared for the test. The people who review your application will notice that. With that being said, if you put a lot of work into many different extra-curricular activities (i.e. student council, sports, National Honor Society, band, etc.) then you might be alright. I remember a friend of mine almost got turned away from Madison for having a 4.0, a 26 on the ACT and being in 2 different sports. If you write good essays (make sure you have people edit them), and you continue to work hard in your senior year, your chances of getting in are fairly good in my opinion.
By the way, you can always retake the ACT. Study harder and improve on the sections you did worst on.
Why is The University of Wisconsin a good college?
It is widely recognized as an institution of high quality for both academics and partying. Playboy magazine, in listing the top party schools, once left Wisconsin off its list because it was so far off the charts. It is consistently a world leader in the science, engineering, biology, and medical fields, as well as social sciences such as History.
