UW faculty may chip in for needy students

Some UW-Madison faculty members are so committed to holding the door open at the university to low-income students that they ‘re willing to reach into their own pockets to help make it happen.

The Faculty Senate will propose on Monday a faculty fundraising drive aimed at raising money for need-based scholarships to the university. UW Foundation, the official fundraising organization for the university, has said it will match donations.
