UW-Parkside projects a $5.3 million deficit for the 2023-24 school year.

Huron consultants will be on campus next week to help the university find ways to manage its deficit, Menke said.

The UW system is already paying a different consulting firm, Deloitte, $2.8 million this school year to evaluate the financial health of its universities, according to a contract the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel obtained through the state public records law.

Huron is assisting with short-term budget planning, UW system spokesperson Mark Pitsch said. The cost is between $15,000 and $20,000.
