Staggering $257 Million UW Budget Draws Fire
Madison Bureau reports Gov Reynolds faced a 257 million two year request from the University of Wisconsin and state colleges. Delegates argued tax funds must rise only with economic growth, urging restraint. The plan would sharply boost spending and taxes to support enrollment projected to reach about 142,000 by 1982. Reynolds listened, signaling rush to set a budget by February 1. UW President Harrington said alumni chapters will back the drive for more money. Meyer Cohen of Green Bay serves as coordinating committee PR chairman and is a political ally of the governor.
