Budget cuts force UW to cancel several phys-ed courses, including popular triathlon class

David Nguyen pumped his legs up and down on a stationary bike outside of UW-Madison?s Natatorium, keeping up both a steady cadence and banter with the other students in the triathlon training class. The 23-year-old said he feels lucky to be taking the class. The course is slated to be eliminated after this spring. “It seems like there are other classes that could be cut before this one,” Nguyen said.
