Wisconsin plan to fund property damage with student fees
Dean Spencer L. Kimball proposes a pay as you blow it up plan for Wisconsin universities. Each student would pay 100 dollars per semester with 90 dollars kept on campus and 10 dollars funneled to a state fund. If no damage occurs the 90 dollars are refunded and the state keeps the 10 dollars. The idea aims to deter campus violence and cover insurance costs.
