UPDATE: Nearly 500 sign letter demanding that Ray Cross oppose Scott Walker’s plan to restructure the university

Five days after an open letter was posted online, the number of people at University of Wisconsin — now including not only faculty, but staff, students and alumi — demanding that UW System president Ray Cross oppose Gov. Scott Walker’s plan to restructure UW in his budget rose to 484. Some 88 of them were at, or graduated from UW-Madison, where faculty were scheduled Monday to vote on a resolution asking Cross to delay restructuring.
