uw should not pay for low budget

In a Sept. 28 press release, Gov. Doyle reported that if there is no new state budget, students might face an additional $800 tuition surcharge next semester to cover the $96 million UW Systems needs to continue operating. Though this is only one option UW System could take to cover the shortage, it proves a point:Students will pay if the state Legislature wonâ??t. And if the $800 does not come from studentsâ?? checking accounts, it will come from the classroom.
