State universities brace for proposed budget cuts
Following Gov. Scott Walker's call for a $300 million cut to the University of Wisconsin System for the 2015-'17 biennium, southeastern Wisconsin UW campuses are busy preparing to meet the worst-case scenarios.
If the governor's proposal moves forward as is, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee could lose $40 million, and the University of Wisconsin-Parkside in Kenosha could lose $7 million over the biennium. That represents 6.5 percent of UWM's operating budget and 8 percent of UW-Parkside's.
