A UW-Stout faculty member talks with us about some of that campus’ reaction to a plan for the UW system to consolidate majors, among other streamlining steps. Then we discuss the effect of

the coronavirus pandemic on real estate in Wisconsin with a broker and an economist. And we catch up on the Week’s top Washington stories, including whether Congress will move forward with

additional economic recovery funding. FEATURED IN THIS SHOW * A RESPONSE TO THE UW SYSTEM'S PLAN TO MOVE FORWARD A plan to streamline the UW system would increase online learning, and

also consolidate majors that are offered on multiple campuses. A representative of a group of faculty members at UW-Stout shares their concerns. * HOW THE PANDEMIC HAS IMPACTED HOME SALES IN
