In conversation, David Wilson uses many of the same buzzwords college administrators across the country are turning to these days.
He speaks about the need to make college “accessible” and “affordable,” especially for groups who traditionally havenâ??t pursued a secondary education, and says the University of Wisconsin Systemâ??s two-year UW Colleges can serve as a “gateway” for students of all backgrounds and ages to pursue a baccalaureate degree. And he talks about the importance of “lifelong learning” and the role UW-Extension plays in helping people from all corners of Wisconsin access university resources.
Behind the jargon, however, is a genuine, lifelong love of learning and devotion to education.
