Budget: Close the law school

This came to the forefront again, due to the continuing budget "negotiations". In a recent opinion article in the Capital Times, Senate majority leader, Sen. Judy Robson (D-Beloit), encourages the budget to move forward and points to some republican oddities. Specifically, Republicans "proposed shutting down the UW Law School in its entirety because one of their members was unhappy with his legal representation during a messy divorce."

Well this was odd when it happened and was fully investigated to be what it was, personal above the public and above public service and was entirely personal politics.
