It sure seems like Gov. Jim Doyle promised 50,000 Wisconsin schoolchildren more than he could deliver, but his spokesman insists the promise is being fulfilled. Itâ??s too soon to tell.
One of the hallmarks of Doyleâ??s tenure as governor has been something he called the Wisconsin Covenant: If you graduate from high school having maintained at least a “B” average, take all the college prep classes you need and stay out of trouble, youâ??ll be guaranteed a place in a Wisconsin college or university and youâ??ll get the financial aid you need to pay for that education.
