Earlier this week, Governor Tony Evers announced his nearly $2.4 billion 2021-23 capital budget proposal. His plan includes about $1 billion for UW System, including four major projects at UW-Madison:
- A new College of Letters and Science building to replace the aging Mosse Humanities Building, $88 million
- The first phase of a new College of Engineering building to replace the 82-year-old Computer Aided Engineering Center, $150 million
- Restoration of the 140-year-old Music Hall on Bascom Hill, $26 million
- Underground utility work on the Engineering campus, an area prone to damaging floods, $73 million
