The Perkins Loan Program, which provided $25.4 million in low-interest loans to UW System students, has expired, with seemingly little hope of congressional renewal in sight.

UW-Madison’s new meal plan for the 2018-’19 academic year sparked backlash throughout campus. The university’s plan, however, is similar to others across the Big Ten Conference — and more affordable, too.
A group of house fellows will be moving to new rooms this coming fall to free up space for students who would otherwise live in temporary spaces.

After President Donald Trump repealed the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy in September, university leaders across the country are pushing for Dreamers to regain the protections they once had under the Obama-era legislation.
UW-Madison’s Center for Religion and Global Citizenry voiced their disapproval of the university’s new dining policy Tuesday, becoming the latest organization on campus to denounce the plan.
As a resident and a house fellow, the residence halls were foundational in my social and academic college experience. Through neighbors down the hall, I found several of my best friends, learned about cultures from around the world and developed curiosities for academic disciplines I hardly knew existed. With nearly all first-year students living on campus, Housing helps form intimate communities to contrast the enormity of the University and brings together students from all academic, regional and ideological backgrounds to an unstructured social setting — a phenomenon not found elsewhere at the school to such significance. With how critical a role Housing plays in campus life, I am concerned about how the mandatory Dining deposit will impact low-income students' access to our state’s public flagship university.
When I’m not at school during the summer, I’m back home at my parents’ house, where I grew up. We have a pool out back, and it’s my favorite thing in the world--on a hot summer day, there’s nothing better than plunging in there. When I was growing up, I didn’t really run or play sports, but I would spend hours in the pool. As I got older and realized I needed to exercise if I was going to stay skinny, I started swimming laps.
I’m going to graduate this year, but I don’t think I’m quite ready to settle down and work in an office somewhere. I have the idea that I want to travel the world for a bit. But I don’t want to just live of my mom and dad’s money, or anything (I don’t think they’d let me do that, anyway!)--I want to work while I’m moving around.

The Daily Cardinal has you covered. Get debriefed on the top ten things that happened on campus this semester with our Top Ten News.
Wendy Li decided to go to graduate school last year, leaving a career in Washington, D.C. to come to UW-Madison. But just months into her stint in Wisconsin, the first-year Ph.D. student knows Congress’ tax bill could alter her life dramatically.
Furthering the backlash about a new dining hall policy that would require incoming students living in residence halls to spend a minimum of $1,400 on dining, a number of UW-Madison community members have responded with a petition condemning the policy.
Recently the University released a policy proposal to mandate a $1,400 non-refundable dining hall deposit for incoming freshman living in the dorms. The deposit would only be available for use at campus dining halls and unions and students would make four $350 quarterly deposits. If the funds are not spent before the school year is out, they go to the University and students receive only an email reminder to use the money before it disappears.
About one in eight students said they couldn't always afford sufficient food and housing while at UW-Madison, according to the Campus Climate survey data.
