In an effort to help address the state’s financial crisis University of Wisconsin schools will be tightening their belts.
This week the UW System Board of Regents will hold their meeting in La Crosse to discuss ways they can decrease spending.
The Board has already taken a number of steps to decrease spending, such as implementing a new approval process for hiring and limiting out-of-state travel, but it wasn’t enough. Now they’re looking for additional ways to cut costs.
