Doyle weighs in for UW, Wiley

Gov. Jim Doyle says he still has full confidence in embattled UW-Madison Chancellor John Wiley.

And the governor says he does not believe that the ongoing controversy over Wiley’s handling of the Paul Barrows case has hurt the UW’s standing with state lawmakers.

….Doyle’s comments came after he announced he will veto more than $50 million in Republican cuts to the University of Wisconsin System budget and student financial aid.
