Dear Editor: I was shocked to read of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign’s concern about vendors needing to pay third-party fees to present their ideas and products to UW-Madison officials on energy efficiency.
The UW shouldn’t be constrained to sifting through every hare-brained idea in order to find the ones that make sense. The organizer of such an event performs a vital service. Taxpayers should applaud the UW for finding inexpensive ways to build a better and greener university.
