With a new director on board, the University of Wisconsin La Follette School of Public Affairs is headed toward program expansions and the possibility of building a new home by 2013.
UW public affairs and economics professor Carolyn Heinrich is replacing Barbara Wolfe as director of the school. She said her top priority is to raise private funds to support current graduate students and attract top students to the school and find the school a new home with more space for students and staff.
