Scott Walker way off in saying University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee has 2.8 students per faculty member
Not to get all inside-baseball, but news releases issued by Gov. Scott Walker are usually pretty plain, like the white chalk lines that meet at home plate.
So, it was a surprise to see Walker’s May 10, 2016 release about the faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, which arrived like a pitch thrown at a batter’s chin.
Walker called a no-confidence vote being taken that day by the Milwaukee faculty a mere "fuss." The professors were expressing "their collective groan" about budgeting and "job-for-life tenure." The school "should not be about protecting the interests of the faculty, but about delivering value and excellence to Wisconsin."
For a Walker news release, pretty vitriolic stuff.
