Letter: Wiley�s real stance

In response to Chancellor Wileyââ?¬â?¢s ââ?¬Å?wake-up callââ?¬Â reported in the Oct. 21 Herald that he stands with students against rising tuition, I want to remind people of the title of another article from two years ago (12/3/02): ââ?¬Å?In financial crunch, Wiley supports in-state tuition increases.ââ?¬Â The situation was the same then as it is now, with Gov. Doyle, state legislators and the Board of Regents saying that due to the state budget crisis, students need to brace for tuition hikes because of reduced state spending for the UW.
