With one stroke of his pen, Gov. Scott Walker can end the quality of education in Wisconsin as well as the rich history of cooperation that Wisconsin government is known for. Our state ranks among the nation?s highest academic achievers. Walker?s economic plan makes scapegoats out of state teachers and will lead to a brain drain the likes of which this state has never seen. The nation?s leading researchers at UW-Madison will likely take millions of research dollars with them as they flee, causing tuition raises to unprecedented levels. Wisconsin?s once proud academic system is about to be shredded.
