Budget fight entertaining, but UW is getting hurt

If you’ve been around Madison as long as I have, the biennial budget fight between the legislature and the university can sound like a broken record.

As a cynical news hound, I kind of enjoy it. The university does unbelievably dumb things like secretly giving chancellors $700 month car fare after the governor took away their cars and trying to cancel the ROTC program at UW-Stout.
