Wisconsin campus enrollment limit rejected in 1970 plan
The University of Wisconsin faculty rejected a 1970 Madison campus enrollment cap of 35 000 in favor of a more liberal policy. A 40 000 ceiling by 1971 72 was adopted but would not greatly reduce growth. 37 500 students were projected for 1968 69. Dean Kurt Wendt called the proposal unrealistic and too little, too late. Wisconsin now has 29 300 students on the Madison campus.
