As state lawmakers prepare to either add or subtract from the university’s proposed budget, top leaders in the University of Wisconsin System on Friday urged members of the UW Board of Regents to lobby hard for more cash.
“I do hope you’ll keep reminding our legislators about the cuts we have made and the efficiencies we’re generating,” System President Kevin Reilly told the Regents. “We have made progress, and we will continue to make it. Now is the time for reinvestment.”
