Joint effort on cancer research

This observation from a reader about the I-94 Connection that allows two UW campuses to collaborate on programs. There's been a lot of recent talk about whether public health programs should be in Madison or Milwaukee, but this ingenious solution involves both:

It seems to me that the UW System uses the tax payers money to set up an environment for contracting cancer and then the UW System uses our money to study the effects of it.

(1) UW-Milwaukee Student Union management board allows the sale of smoking materials and smoking on the premises.

(2) UW-Madison campus is completely smoke free and hosts The University of Wisconsin Center for Tobacco Research and Intervention. They are nationally recognized for their research into tobacco dependence and its treatment.

If Madison is looking for guinea pigs for cancer study all they have to do is enlist the students at UW-Milwaukee.
