Walker’s budget cuts will leave incoming Wisconsin students unprepared - PHILLIP MICHAELSON, Badger Herald

Even though advanced classes, like those offered by the Course Options program, may help Wisconsin high school students prepare for the academic rigor of college, Gov. Scott Walker’s budget cuts could limit the availability of this program to students across the state. I’m not going to sugarcoat it – high school will never be able to truly prepare a student for life in college. The combined fact that academics are at an entirely higher caliber and that each person is on their own for the first time guarantees college will always be a strange new world to an incoming freshman. https://badgerherald.com/opinion/2015/03/27/walkers-budget-cuts-will-leave-incoming-students-unprepared-zw/
