Comments on: Press coverage of the restructuring controversy http://siftingandwinnowing.org/2010/02/02/at-least-someone-is-covering-this-story/ An independent news and opinion page for the UW-Madison community Tue, 20 Jul 2010 23:09:03 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Todd Finkelmeyer http://siftingandwinnowing.org/2010/02/02/at-least-someone-is-covering-this-story/comment-page-1/#comment-3146 Todd Finkelmeyer Fri, 22 Jan 2010 17:09:11 +0000 http://siftingandwinnowing.org/?p=176#comment-3146 FYI: I just posted a story on this topic at captimes.com. The academic staff ad hoc committee's report is out. That group sees no need for a restructuring. Paul DeLuca was not available for immediate comment. If I can track him down later in the day, I'll add his quotes to my post. FYI: I just posted a story on this topic at captimes.com.
