Hosted by WISCAPE on the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus, the fall 2009 Wisconsin Idea Forum brought together policymakers, practitioners, students, scholars, and the public to discuss the current state of student financial aid in Wisconsin and the implications of the state’s changing student and workforce demographics.
The forum aimed to include a wide array of participants in an effort to broaden the understanding of available financial aid, foster discussion about the future of need-based aid in Wisconsin, and craft policy recommendations aimed at increasing postsecondary access and success throughout the state.
The Wisconsin Idea Forum is a biannual event sponsored by the University of Wisconsin System and hosted by system campuses. This is the second in the program series, which brings University of Wisconsin resources to bear on the state’s most vexing social, environmental, and economic challenges.
