Don’t boot center from UW campus - Wisconsin State Journal editorial board

The Legislature’s petty attempt to evict the Center for Investigative Journalism from the UW-Madison campus has quickly backfired. Less than a day after the Republican-run Legislature’s budget committee slipped a mean-spirited eviction notice into the state budget, the center was enjoying lots of public attention to its mission and work. The full Legislature and citizens across Wisconsin now are learning more about the center’s strong role in training the investigative reporters of the future, including many paid student interns. The full Legislature should reject the budget committee’s micro-managing of university office space. And if it doesn’t, Gov. Scott Walker should veto the clumsy measure. http://lacrossetribune.com/news/opinion/other-view-don-t-boot-center-from-uw-campus/article_cd0415ac-cfae-11e2-bd43-0019bb2963f4.html
