Gov. Scott Walker appointed the final two members to a task force dedicated to studying the UW System Monday.
Walker appointed UW-Madison Vice Chancellor for Administration Darrell Bazzell and UW System Senior Vice President Emeritus Dave Olien to the 17-person committee.
The ""Special Task Force on UW Restructuring and Operational Flexibilities,"" chaired by Board of Regents member Michael Falbo, will study the new flexibilities granted to the UW System in the 2011-13 state budget and whether it should be granted more flexibilities in the future.
After shooting down proposals to break UW-Madison off from the UW System this spring, the state's budget writing committee found it necessary to create the task force.
Aside from Bazzell, Olien, and Falbo, the committee also includes six members appointed by both the speaker and majority leader and one member appointed by the minority leader from each house. Co-chairs of the Joint Finance Committee chose Falbo to serve as Chair last week.
