Walker proposes technical college tuition freeze

MADISON - Gov. Scott Walker is proposing a partial freeze on tuition at Wisconsin's technical college system as part of his plan to help put people to work.

Walker on Thursday said his state budget would include a proposal to freeze tuition for technical college students who go into high-demand fields. He had promised to make that proposal during last year's campaign.

He is also calling for increasing aid for technical college scholarships and making all state aid to technical colleges dependent on meeting worker training requirements.
