WHITEWATER
UW System Interim President Tommy Thompson encouraged faculty senate members at UW-Whitewater to lobby their legislators for more support as he listened to faculty concerns at a senate meeting Tuesday.
Thompson acknowledged the serious budget situation the university finds itself in, but he said he wants to help get it out of trouble.
âI need your help to do it. I canât do it alone,â he said. âIâve spent more time on Whitewater than any other campus since Iâve been president. I intend to do it until we get it turned around and get your fiscal house in order.â
