In the face of possible state budget cuts, the UW System is taking steps to reduce costs.
The Governor has said education is one area he wants to protect, as the state struggles with a major budget deficit. However, UW System spokesman David Giroux says he won’t be surprised if cuts are made. With the state facing a $5.4 billion deficit next year, Giroux says there’s only so much room lawmakers will have to protect resources for education.
