The WisOpinion Insiders, Chvala and Jensen, discuss the recent bipartisan Legislative Audit Committee vote to audit the Department of Public Instruction following a series of issues involving the department. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Counties Association and the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public leadership.
Over the course of our 100 years, through patenting, licensing and investing, WARF has provided more than $4.5 billion in support to the university. That funding has advanced scientific research in every field you can imagine—from life-saving medical treatments to groundbreaking work in energy, engineering, and beyond.
While undergraduate enrollment in most University of Wisconsin System schools trends downward, there has been a dramatic increase in students choosing the state’s technical colleges since the pandemic.
The Journal Sentinel took DPI’s bait and left its readers with a completely misleading impression of choice school results.
Just five days after the party triumph in elections swept across the country, eight members of the Democratic caucus found a way to throw the upper hand away in the 40-day government shutdown.
Whether Democrats — who lately have had a habit of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory — can turn this stunning change in strategy into midterm success next year is still the big question.
Mesmerized by the Marxist Mamdani mirage.
Legacy giving can provide the support they need for generations to come in the name and living memory of the donor.
After five household moves over 90-plus years, my childhood library is still with me.
This National Kindness Day, let’s remember that kindness doesn’t require perfection; it requires participation. It’s checking in on a neighbor. It’s listening with empathy. It’s using your voice to stand up for what’s right, even when it’s uncomfortable.
None of the problems that led to the shutdown have been resolved.
The messy ending to the nation’s longest government shutdown was not to the liking of most Democrats, but it was probably inevitable given the state of play in Washington.
The number of Americans who rely on and abuse the SNAP system is a number that continues to grow with no end in sight.
Democrats were willing to strand grandma at the airport and take the Thanksgiving turkey off the table. Showing partisan fight was more important than good governance.
It’s time we give equal treatment as we do to the other disability groups. If it is good for some with disabilities, it should be good for all.
The numbers tell a sobering story that demands our immediate attention and action.
There’s little transparency on these deals. No one knows what the impact on Wisconsin will be.
Supporters of AI use in courts hope that it will save the state money. Unfortunately, the technology isn’t up to the task.
The current regime wants nothing to do with any pause on AI’s breakneck development. For ruling Republicans, it’s full steam ahead, no guardrails. Scientific consensus and public buy-in be damned. Opposition Democrats are the proverbial deer in the headlights.
