UW-Madisonâ??s student government has found a larger-than-expected amount of reserve funds available to cover the majority of the $256,580 asked for by the state, officials said Friday.
ASM Chair Tyler Junger said he was informed by Vice Chancellor Darrell Bazzell within the past 48 hours that a general reserve fund that contains money from student groups would be close to covering the entire cost. Junger said university officials were not yet sure what the amount would be, but that it was large enough to cover most of the amount requested by the state.
