MADISON â?? University of Wisconsin System leaders today approved a controversial new policy that will make it harder for some nonprofit groups to receive student fees.
UW System vice president Don Mash said the policy protects universities from increasing pressure by groups seeking money for services that donâ??t benefit students.
Only about six out of 700 student groups on the UW campus in Madison will be affected by the policy change, which will allow fewer groups to use the money for salaries and off-campus rent.
