Dear Editor: Why are the GOP politicians so set on destroying the University of Wisconsin when they benefited so much from it? The current plan imposes a 38 percent cut on a state asset that consumes only 7 percent of resources. Nobody seriously disputes that the UW System should share the impacts in revenue shortfalls for the coming biennium. Yet why impose so grotesque a burden? The UW System has been attacked by the governor and other GOP stalwarts with the attempt to strip away the flagship campus.
