UW-Superior Suspends 25 Programs - Danielle Kaeding, WPR

The University of Wisconsin-Superior announced Tuesday it’s suspending 25 programs, including 9 majors, 15 minors and one graduate program. The university has now suspended 40 programs since 2014. The announcement surprised faculty, some of whom said they were unaware their programs were at risk. Jordan Milan, director of strategic communications at UW-Superior, said administration held several meetings over the last month in which leadership decided to suspend programs due in part to the low number of students enrolled in those majors and minors. "It will allow us to offer more sections in programs that are very popular, so it just frees up those resources to put them where they’re needed most," she said. https://www.wpr.org/uw-superior-suspends-25-programs
