The UW-Oshkosh chancellor says a state budget signed by the governor funds the start of a teacher-education center project on the UW-O campus. Chancellor Andrew Leavitt says sthe budget will help the university begin the long-awaited renovations of the Clow Social Science Center/Nursing education building. Leavitt says a half million dollars in the state budget allows design work to begin now and construction to launch beginning in 2021.

On the operations side, Leavitt says UW system employees will be getting a pay raise, even though Republicans nixed the governor’s plan to back lost tuition revenue with additional state aid.
