While Americans work together to defeat the deadly coronavirus pandemic, we can’t afford to lose sight of another ongoing epidemic that we were just starting to get under control when the invisible enemy reached our shores. We must continue to be vigilant in the fight against addiction.
Where is the Republican plan post “Safer at Home”?
The status quo is not sustainable, and reviewing reforms to drive efficiency, strengthen our online services, and showcase the distinctiveness of our universities will be a priority. The Blueprint is intended to set the table for discussion about our long-term future.
Noting that every campus cannot be “all things to all people,” changes are coming for comprehensive universities
In March, it became clear Wisconsin could not avoid the effects of the global coronavirus pandemic, and the expectations of the communities our colleges have faithfully served for more than 100 years instantly intensified. Our colleges, students and graduates adapted and responded immediately, as only they could.
It only took us a week to see what liberals would do statewide if the Wisconsin Supreme Court had not required Gov. Tony Evers’s health secretary to follow the law.
Even a simple act like wearing a face mask while out in public during a pandemic is fast being weaponized politically.
