Education priority in State of State address

The state of Wisconsin is, apparently, on the move.

In the annual State of the State address Wednesday evening, Gov. Jim Doyle highlighted Wisconsin’s progress and optimistic future regarding agriculture, child care, health care, minimum wage and education. Regarding education, however, Doyle dropped a part of his speech that promised to give the UW System and its financial aid a larger increase in state money than the corrections system in his budget to be revealed next month.
