[Platteville, Wisc…] The Joint Committee on Finance held its first public hearing for the budget at UW-Platteville on Monday and were told not to lower tuition at UW schools. Governor Walker proposed lowering tuition 5%, but many public officials, including UW-Platteville’s chancellor, said it wouldn’t help students much. The students on campus, however, tend to disagree. They told MNS’ Bill Osmulski, $300 a year less for tuition would go a long way.
