Questions Remain After UW Leaves Richland Campus

The University of Wisconsin is walking away from its Richland campus.

The university announced earlier this week that it plans to vacate the campus by July 1st. The university ended in-person classes there two years ago. At that time there were just 57 students looking to get a degree. Local leaders in Richland County want to know what they’re going to do with the campus now. They signed an agreement promising to help pay for the campus, and are now worried that they will be stuck with the entire costs. The UW has ended in-person classes at five two-year campuses in the past 18 months. It’s not clear if the university plans to abandon those campuses as well.
