While things appear to be going well for UW-Madison, it’s a different story for the rest of the University of Wisconsin system. In recent years, many of the state’s UW campuses have seen declining enrollment, resulting in lost tuition revenue and creating tight budgets.

The mid-April snowstorm that buried parts of east-central Wisconsin in more than 30 inches of snow left numerous collapsed barns and dead cattle in its wake. But those staggering Blizzard Evelyn snowfall totals — some of which were twice as high when factoring in drifts — didn’t cause the collapses, said David Bohnhoff, emeritus professor in the Biological Systems Engineering Department at UW-Madison.
UW-Madison agronomy professor and corn production expert Joe Lauer’s agronomy program includes 14 growing locations around the state. While he and his students have been able to make good progress on a lot of their trials, three locations, as of the middle of last week, had not been harvested yet as they haven’t been able to get into those fields.
