PERHAPS IT’S TIME to hold public universities responsible for the bad behavior of their youthful charges. Don’t expect to earn number-one party school status, and be rewarded for it with more taxpayer money.
Don’t expect to make headlines about bad management and easy spending to prop up failed administrators, and have legislators fatten your wallet.The taxpayers of Wisconsin have provided hundreds of millions of dollars to the system as an investment in their children and the future of the state’s economy. That’s a serious matter. It should be treated seriously, not as a national party joke, or a piggybank for questionable administrators.
