Hey there! I am a science/technology enthusiast and regular contributor to Wikipedia. Elsewhere you may find me with the @JackFromWisconsin@wikis.world handle.
I don’t go out of my way to get news, so social media/Lemmy. Except for local news, which I do follow more closely. But that’s it.
Absolute Bullshit. The closure of the branch campuses, which bring the UW to rural Wisconsin, is a failure on the state and on the Universities of Wisconsin (formerly UW System). Thousands of students across wisconsin would not get the life-changing, fulfilling, career-opening education they fucking deserve if all of these branch campuses close.
What is next after the rest of the UW branch campuses close? Bye-bye UW Parkside? UW Superior? UW Platteville?
We can fund these colleges, we just haven’t been. It is about god-damn time that our legislature has a spine and promises to fund these colleges, and to re-open the closed ones, for the future. While you’re at it, make tuition free at these colleges. The state has more than enough money. Help those who need it.
I know they had a word block list but I’m unsure if it’s still around.
I just realized FF didn’t have a built in translator a week ago. Excited to see it come!
You’re right. Here’s the archive link: https://archive.ph/kXZft
