Scott Walker's Drastic Cuts Kill University Long-Distance

Scott Walker has proposed higher education budget reforms and many people in higher education are unhappy.

One of them, a doctoral candidate in journalism and mass communications named Michael Mirer, took to the pages of the Washington Post to share his gripes in an article headlined: “Scott Walker thinks my university has fat to trim. Yet my department is barely scraping by.” Mirer evidently hoped that by sharing his personal experience he would show that the proposed cuts were deleterious and unreasonable.
