Why not help all students and freeze all UW tuition?
That would be too easy! Can't do it!

Governor's plan gives UW students more tuition aid
MADISON, Wis. (AP) Nearly 40,000 Wisconsin college students would get enough financial aid to offset tuition increases during the next two years under Gov. Jim Doyle's budget proposal.
Doyle promised that University of Wisconsin System tuition increases would be moderate and in line with recent hikes of 5.5 percent the past two years. But he said all students from families with the state's median income of $60,000 or less would be protected from the increases.
To do that, the governor is proposing a $24 million increase for the Wisconsin Higher Education Grants received by about 25,000 UW students.
The money will be used to increase the size of grants averaging $2,270 this school year to cover expected tuition increases. The Higher Educational Aids Board is expected to approve next school year's increase, which has not been released, next week." Wisconsin Wire - wcco.com

He won't freeze tuition because THAT will hurt the educationistas--reliable Doylie voters.
He'd rather put the State in debt, long-term.
Right on, we need to take care of those teachers and professes. Bunch of CRAP!
Keep up your GREAT work. Thanks for the comment.
