I’d like to think she would have had a more proactive response than writing a letter pleading for more money which is what the response was so far. In 2002-2003 when facing a similar cut the UW immediately froze enrollment and accepting more applications. They agreed to stop that when they got a 10% tuition surcharge to fill the cut gap.
Seccssion is not the only answer although I think it is the best. Madison needs to be run by those that value and actually understand it. That does not describe the current System leader nor the BOR. For example one BOR member asked last year why Madison is making inroads in China as China is taking US jobs and not democratic. That is self-defeating on so many levels–I thought the US was well past that 1970’s type of thinking.
