On Campus: School of Music, Wisconsin Energy Institute move forward

Gov. Jim Doyle and other leaders broke ground on the Wisconsin Energy Institute last week, a building on the UW-Madison campus that will house research on renewable energy resources. The Wisconsin Energy Institute will be located at 1552 University Avenue, the site of the former University Health Services building. It is funded with $50 million from the state and $50 million from gifts and grants. In other building news, planning is moving forward on a new School of Music performance center for UW-Madison.
