Campus Connection: Does Doyle veto stick it to those outside Madison, Milwaukee?

A bill with support from both parties that would have required some members of the University of Wisconsin Systemâ??s Board of Regents to come from particular geographic regions of the state was vetoed Monday by Gov. Jim Doyle.

Those pushing for passage of Senate Bill 223 had argued that all regions of the state should be represented on the Board of Regents.
