With enrollment declining at the University of Wisconsin System’s two-year branch schools, President Jay Rothman has ordered UW-Platteville to cease degree programs at its Richland Center campus. In a Tuesday letter, Rothman directed UW-Platteville Interim Chancellor Tammy Evetovich to shift all of Richland Center’s in-person instructional programs to the main Platteville or Baraboo campuses for fall 2023. Among all UW System two-year branch campuses, Richland Center had the lowest student enrollment this fall, with just 60 students. In 2014, 567 students enrolled at the campus.
