In November, UW System President Jay Rothman announced that the Richland Center satellite campus of UW-Platteville will be shutting down this summer. Joining us to talk about the closure are three community members with a long history with the campus.

Dorothy Thompson was formerly the Public Relations Director for the Richland Center campus. Dion Kempthorne is the former dean and professor emeritus. John Poole was first a student at there the inaugural year (1967-68) and he spent more than 40 years of his career there, and retired as Assistant Campus Dean for Student Affairs (Emeritus).
