State cuts may cost UWM $20 million

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee would take a $19.8 million budget cut over the next two years under Gov. Jim Doyle’s budget plan, university officials said Monday.

The reduction makes up about 11% of the UW System’s total $174 million budget reduction.

The system late Monday released a breakdown of the cuts that each of its campuses will have to absorb if Doyle’s budget passes in its current form.
