The University of Wisconsin’s president says most of the 38 million-dollars he wants from a new tuition hike will go for pay raises for university employees.
President Jay Rothman was on Capital City Sunday on Madison TV over the weekend. He said the UW isn’t paying as much as other universities, and he wants to change that. Rothman says inflation is also driving prices higher at the university. Rothman wants a five percent tuition increase, starting next fall.
