County Board holds off on taking UW-Madison stand (Portage Daily Register)

The Columbia County Board of Supervisors is holding off, at least for a month, on taking a stand on the proposal to split the governance of the University of Wisconsin-Madison from the rest of the University of Wisconsin System. The proposal is directly relevant to Columbia County, and other Wisconsin counties, because it could affect the future of the University of Wisconsin-Extension, which is governed by the same Board of Regents that oversees the rest of the system.
