UW-Whitewater professors walk from Whitewater to the Capitol

Posted:

MADISON (WKOW) -- Whitewater professors went the extra distance to make their voices heard today.

Two UW-Whitewater professors walked all the way from Whitewater to Madison.

Others met them in the middle and headed to the Capitol.

They wanted to deliver a letter by hand to legislators.

They say they're worried about UW-Madison splitting off from the rest of the system.

"A lot of people think that flexibility is a code word for, you're on your own," said Wallace Sherlock, Associate Professor, UW-Whitewater.

The group left Thursday from Whitewater and arrived in Madison late last night.

They then finished their walk this morning arriving at the Capitol.
