Western President Reacts To Governor’s Tech College Proposals
One of the Workforce Readiness Initiatives in Governor Walker’s 2015-17 State
Budget plan is a technical college tuition freeze. And it would apply to those pursuing training in high need occupations. Western Technical College President, Lee Rasch is kind of stuck on what that really means.
Walker had promised to make that proposal during last year’s campaign. He is also calling for increasing aid for technical college scholarships and making all state aid to technical colleges dependent on meeting worker training requirements.
