Statistics don't support UW-Milwaukee shuttering materials engineering program

Yahoo9 hours ago
Everything is made from something. The materials we use are so important that entire eras of human history are named for them: Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age. The knowledge of how to make, process, and use these materials is fundamental to any form of society. A society that fails to pass this knowledge on to new generations will not survive or prosper.
That's why it was disappointing to hear outgoing UWM Chancellor Mark Mone double down on the proposed closure of UWM's award-winning Materials Engineering program. This program provides students with life-changing opportunities for high-paying careers in an in-demand field. It's also critical for our region's manufacturing industry and national defense.
Mone pointed to the relatively small size of the Materials Engineering program. He would be hard-pressed to find a school of engineering anywhere in the country in which materials engineering is not the smallest department in terms of number of students.
Materials engineering programs typically have dozens of students, not hundreds. To put this into perspective, however, the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts an average of just 10 job openings per year for neurologists in Wisconsin. Hopefully, no one would suggest that UW-Madison should stop training neurology residents, since most of us recognize that medical specialists are essential to the kind of society we want to have.
Materials engineers are no less essential, but since we work behind the scenes, many people are unaware of the critical role we play. In fact, our work goes into every single manufactured item you see around you, from nuts and bolts to airplanes, and everything in between.
Letters: Lack of state support, Republicans are to blame for UWM's budget constraints
Chancellor Mone suggested redirecting resources towards UWM's Computer Science program. However, unemployment among computer science graduates is currently 6.1% — nearly 1.5 times the overall national average. While computer science is undoubtedly an important field, increasing the present oversupply of computer science graduates will not benefit students or Wisconsin's economy.
Materials engineering graduates, in contrast, have an unemployment rate of just 1.85%, and Wisconsin manufacturers are struggling to fill materials engineering positions as the current generation retires.
This critical shortage is why the Department of Defense created the METAL (Metallurgical Engineering Trades Apprenticeship & Learning) program, an initiative focused on rebuilding the materials engineering workforce. Given Wisconsin's position as the number one state for metal casting employment, the Defense Department has identified Milwaukee as a target location for a new $1.5 million METAL hub.
Opinion: We asked readers about wake boats on Wisconsin lakes. Here's what you said.
Funding from this initiative could be a tremendous catalyst to strengthen and grow UWM's Materials Engineering program. This would be a rare win-win-win-win situation: for UWM, for students, for industry, and for national defense. In order to qualify for this funding, however, UWM needs to continue to have a Materials Engineering program.
UWM's incoming chancellor, Thomas Gibson, successfully worked with industry in his previous role to ensure UW-Stevens Point's offerings were aligned with workforce needs. Let's hope he brings that perspective to his new role at UWM.
Outgoing Chancellor Mone has handed him an awesome opportunity to show that he is a different kind of leader who will take UWM in a new direction. By saving the UWM Materials Engineering program, the new chancellor has a chance to create a tremendous success story that will benefit our region for generations to come.
Dave Palmer is a metallurgical engineer at Twin Disc in Racine. He earned his masters degree in Materials Engineering from UWM in 2014, and is currently working on a PhD in Materials Engineering at UWM.

Gold, silver become legal tender in Texas under new law

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Texas has joined a growing movement of states establishing gold and silver currency systems, after Gov. Greg Abbott signed House Bill 1056 into law on June 29, creating what supporters call the most comprehensive precious metals transaction framework in the nation. The legislation allows Texans to use precious metals stored in the state-run Texas Bullion Depository for every day purchases through debit cards and mobile applications, positioning Texas alongside Arkansas, Florida, and Missouri as states advancing precious metals currency legislation this year. 'I signed a law authorizing Texans to use gold & silver as legal tender in day-to-day financial transactions,' Abbott announced via X. 'It fulfills the promise of Article 1, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution.' The law, which takes effect in phases beginning September 2026, enables the Texas Comptroller to establish electronic systems that convert gold and silver holdings into U.S dollars at the point of sale. The full transactional currency system will be operational by May 1, 2027. During legislative hearings in March, supporters framed the measure as protection against inflation and a return to constitutional money principles. 'Money is three things, according to the Federal Reserve, it's a unit of account, it's a means of exchange, and it's a store of value,' testified Kevin Freeman, an economist and author. 'U.S. dollars are very good at one and two. They're good units of account and means of exchange, but a store of value, the dollar's lost, based on inflation statistics, 95% of its value in my lifetime.' Freeman cited strong public support, noting that Texas Proposition 7 received backing from '1.6 million voters. 76 and a half percent voted in favor of this, this type of transaction.' Jason Cozens, founder of Glint, a company already operating gold-backed payment cards, demonstrated the technology's feasibility during committee testimony. 'When I paid for instance, on Delta Airlines, I paid for my flight, I paid seven grams of gold. They had no idea that I was paying with gold,' Cozens told lawmakers. 'The governor's club in Tallahassee, dinner for a few of us, cost 1.9 grams of gold. They just accept MasterCard. They have no idea that I'm paying with gold.' Cozens emphasized that merchants face no additional costs or system changes, as the technology operates through existing MasterCard networks. However, there are concerns the law could face constitutional challenges. During a hearing for the bill, Victoria North, representing the Texas Comptroller's office, warned that implementing HB 1056 could expose state employees to criminal liability due to conflicts with federal currency laws. 'The United States, has the sole power to coin money. Under the Constitution, and if anyone, individual or state assumes to supplant the medium of exchange adopted by our government, or assumes to compete with the United States government, in this regard, a violation of these statutes would follow,' North testified, citing federal court precedent. North acknowledged she does not specialize in constitutional law and called HB 1056 'the only one' among bills she's reviewed that raises constitutional concerns. The bill's author, Rep. Mark Dorazio, R-San Antonio, argued the system doesn't 'coin money' but rather facilitates use of existing legal tender as permitted by the Constitution. 'In short, this bill makes gold and silver functional money,' Dorazio said during committee hearings, demonstrating his own Glint card. 'We view this as a continuation of Chairman Capriglione's 1984, regular session House Bill 483, which created the Texas bullion depository.' Arkansas, Florida and Missouri have also enacted similar bills this year, building on a movement that began with Utah's legal tender law in 2011 and Oklahoma's legislation in 2014. The Texas measure distinguishes itself through its electronic payment infrastructure, allowing practical everyday use rather than merely symbolic recognition of gold and silver as alternative money.

Dončić 'excited' about playing with Ayton: Source

A deal involving seven teams is looming. Meanwhile, Houston is parting ways with one of its young assets. Jacob Kupferman / Getty Images Mark J. Rebilas / Imagn Deandre Ayton was a surprise addition to this year's free agency class, negotiating a contract buyout with the Trail Blazers on Sunday night and surrendering a reported $10 million of a $34 million deal. Ayton and Luka Dončić are both represented Bill Duffy, the longtime agent who heads WME Basketball. Dončić, according to league sources, is excited about the opportunity to play with Ayton. The Lakers, according to team and league sources, showed serious interest in veteran center Brook Lopez, who agreed to a two-year deal with the LA Clippers on Monday. He was pegged by many around the NBA as the logical player for the Lakers this free agency cycle. Lopez, 37, is still one of the NBA's best inside-outside centers but doesn't play the kind of pick-and-roll, lob-threat style that Dončić has had the most success with in his career. GO FURTHER Deandre Ayton, Lakers agree to two-year deal: Sources To add more detail to Kelly Iko's report below about an "expansive sign-and-trade" involving Houston: League sources tell The Athletic that the Rockets and Suns are working on expanding the Kevin Durant trade into a deal that would involve a league-record seven teams. Other teams involved in negotiations at the moment include the Atlanta Hawks, Brooklyn Nets, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers and Minnesota Timberwolves, league sources say. No trade is imminent, and details are being ironed out as of Wednesday night. In a would-be seven-team trade, there is an unprecedented amount of detail. Unfortunately, while a seven-team trade would make for a thrilling topic at a cocktail party, there haven't been many unexpected developments in these negotiations. At least in the iterations of the deal discussed so far, most of the recognizable names are from trades that have already been agreed to and reported but not yet finalized. The Hawks would be sending Clint Capela to the Rockets in what would become a sign-and-trade, league sources say. Durant would go to Houston. The previously reported return for him, including Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green, would go to Phoenix. Only five players who were in the NBA last season are being discussed in the current iteration of the trade, as of now: Durant, Brooks, Green, Clint Capela and Daeqwon Plowden, league sources say. The rest of the players being discussed are all from already-agreed-upon draft-night trades that are yet to be finalized and can't be until July 6. For now, the largest trade in NBA history is the six-teamer that sent Klay Thompson to the Dallas Mavericks last summer. Before that, it was the five-teamer in 2021, when the Lakers sent Russell Westbrook to the Washington Wizards. GO FURTHER Why the Rockets changed course, fast-tracked their timeline to land Kevin Durant Dennis Schröder will be joining the Kings as part of a sign-and-trade with the Pistons, a team source tells our Sam Amick, and that improves the flexibility for both teams. The Kings willl take Schröder into their existing $16.8 million trade exception for Kevin Huerter and thus maintain their entire $14.1 million nontaxpayer midlevel exception for other moves; Sacramento is currently $14.7 million below the first apron, where the Kings would be hard-capped as a result of the sign-and-trade. The Pistons, meanwhile, will either generate a $14.1 million trade exception for Schröder or can take back up to $23 million in a simultaneous trade that would almost certainly involve a third team (or more). As a result of this trade, the Pistons would operate as an over-the-cap team, with Paul Reed taking the team's biannual exception and Caris LeVert taking Detroit's nontaxpayer midlevel exception. Detroit still has $25 million in room below the tax line with three open roster spots, although one may be designated for rookie second-round pick Chaz Lanier. The Pistons are already taking on a bunch of salary in another trade, sending Simone Fontecchio out in a sign-and-trade for Duncan Robinson; it appears that Detroit will start Robinson's salary at the maximum allowable $16,865,384 (twice Fontecchio's salary plus $250,000), and then decline his salary by 5 percent each of the following two years on his three-year, $48 million deal. It also remains possible that Detroit unites these two sign-and-trades into one big, ugly sign-and-trade, although right now it doesn't seem to generate any additional advantages versus keeping the two separate. To further what Eric Nehm and I discussed in our story earlier today: The Bucks, after waiving Chris Livingston, can accommodate a four-year, $107 million contract for Myles Turner, provided Vasilije Micić gives back at least $5.4 million of his $8.1 million salary in a buyout with Milwaukee. If Turner's deal ends up being a sign-and-trade, however, Micić would only need to give back $5.15 million. After an active offseason, the Atlanta Hawks' championship odds have jumped from +25000 to +2500 on BetMGM. Trae Young remains the cornerstone, but the supporting cast looks deeper and much more talented with those three additions. Atlanta's regular starting five figures to be Trae Young, Kristaps Porziņģis, Most Improved Player Dyson Daniels, last year's No. 1 pick Zaccharie Risacher and Jalen Johnson, who was averaging 18.9 points, 10 rebounds and five assists before missing the second half of last season due to injury. Add Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Luke Kennard to a bench unit in a depleted Eastern Conference, and it's easy to see why Atlanta surged up the odds. GO FURTHER 2026 NBA title odds: How the contenders rank after free agency and trade frenzy The Milwaukee Bucks have waived Chris Livingston. The Bucks selected Livingston, 21, with the final pick of the 2023 NBA Draft, but he never found his footing in the NBA. Livingston appeared in 42 games across the last two seasons with the Bucks and played just 196 minutes. He was on a non-guaranteed contract for the 2025-26 season with a guarantee date of July 15. I'm hearing that the Rockets, who are acquiring Dorian Finney-Smith and Clint Capela in free agency, will be expanding one of those into an expansive sign-and-trade that involves multiple teams. Houston can officially finalize those moves beginning July 6. Purely from a standpoint of matching salaries, the Knicks could construct various types of potential trade offers for LeBron James. The most chaotic deal would be flipping All-NBA big man Karl-Anthony Towns for James, straight up — two teams betting on the other's star. Of course, this could leave the Knicks center-less, given Mitchell Robinson's injury struggles. They could pair a couple of wings, OG Anunoby and either Josh Hart or Mikal Bridges, in a trade for James. They could piece together a trio to offer for James: Anunoby, Robinson and point guard Miles 'Deuce' McBride. But Anunoby will make $45 million in 2027-28 and has a player option for the following season, which would eat into the Lakers' possible cap space two summers from now. Meanwhile, the Knicks — or any other team — may not want to part with three key rotation pieces (and three of their four best defenders) for a 40-year-old. James could double as a basketball fit, as well as a giant expiring contract to avoid the second apron in 2026-27 and maybe beyond. In Los Angeles, Towns and Luka Dončić could destroy any defense they face. But the Knicks are also made up of prime-aged contributors. This would make them older. Like in the other hypotheticals, a James trade to the Knicks, even in a world where both he and the Lakers agree it's best for the two to part ways after seven years, isn't likely. The Knicks didn't get in on the hunt for Kevin Durant. Like so many others, they could be saving up salary and assets for a guy in Milwaukee. They may not handle this hypothetical much differently. Read on for more LeBron James trade hypotheticals. GO FURTHER LeBron James trade fits: Cavs, Warriors, Mavericks and more possibilities Mike Ehrmann / USA Today Sports The Mavericks are hiring Frank Vogel to be Jason Kidd's top assistant coach, a league source confirmed to The Athletic . Vogel spent time around the Mavericks last season as a coaching adviser. He'll replace Sean Sweeney, who left Dallas this offseason for San Antonio, as Kidd's primary lieutenant. Vogel was the Lakers' head coach in 2020 when they won the championship in the NBA bubble. Kidd was an assistant on that staff. Their roles are reversed now. Dallas bringing back Dante Exum does not augur well for the future of guard Brandon Williams. His non-guaranteed contract is Dallas' 16th, and his continued presence on the roster would push Dallas into the second apron, where they are hard-capped by virtue of using the taxpayer midlevel exception on D'Angelo Russell. If Jake LaRavia gets a flat $6 million over two years from the Lakers, as it seems he might, there is $8,104,000 left over for Ayton with their nontaxpayer midlevel exception. If that is the case, Ayton's 2026-27 salary would be $8,509,200 if he doesn't choose to hit free agency. Portland is likely to end up with a $25.55 million cap charge on its books after buying out Ayton. If so, the Blazers are $17 million below the tax line, and Ayton would make a total of $33.7 million in 2025-26 between the two contracts. Lakers second-round draft pick Adou Thiero won't play this summer for the Lakers as he continues with the recovery process from the left knee injury he suffered this past season at Arkansas. He's expected to be fully cleared for training camp. Jalen Bridges has been added to the Celtics summer league roster, I've been told, and will be going to camp with the team in the fall with a chance to make the roster. The 24-year-old wing played for Phoenix on a two-way contract as a rookie. John Hefti / Imagn The Mavericks are bringing back Dante Exum on a one-year minimum contract, a source with knowledge of the negotiations confirmed to The Athletic. The 29-year-old Exum gives the Mavericks another trusted ballhandler. He only played 20 games last season due to right wrist and left hand injuries. When Exum was healthy, it was clear Mavericks coach Jason Kidd could on him. Exum averaged 8.7 points and 2.8 assists in 18.6 minutes per game. In the opening hours of free agency, Dallas agreed to sign D'Angelo Russell using the taxpayer midlevel exception. With Kyrie Irving on the mend from left knee surgery, Russell slides into the starting lineup, while Exum is a leading candidate to get the backup point guard minutes. Signing Exum means the Mavericks will have 16 players on standard contracts. That's fine for now, but they'll need to shed a player before the regular season starts. Sergio Estrada / Imagn Mike Brown was the only candidate the Knicks ended up bringing back for a second interview, per league sources. It was a patient search that featured multiple twists and turns. New York's front office led by Leon Rose reached out to employed head coaches (like Houstons' Ime Udoka and Dallas' Jason Kidd), assistant coaches (like Minnesota's Micah Nori, Dallas' Sean Sweeney and New Orleans' James Borrego), recently fired head coaches (like Brown and Taylor Jenkins) and even held a conversation with South Carolina women's basketball coach Dawn Staley. Rose and Co., per league sources, didn't feel rushed to make a hire since the Knicks were the only team in the NBA with a vacancy. New York went into the initial stages of the hiring process with Brown's name circled. Per league sources, the Knicks liked Brown's extensive résumé and the fact that he's worn many hats in the NBA. Brown's willingness to collaborate and the leadership qualities the franchise examined were also big selling points, league sources said. New York, led by stars Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, liked that Brown has worked with LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Steph Curry. The Knicks liked that Brown came up under Gregg Popovich, worked alongside Steve Kerr and won championships with both. New York was impressed at how Brown turned the Sacramento Kings around and helped them win 45-plus games in back-to-back seasons for the first time in the lowly franchise's history since 2006. Before he was fired by Sacramento after 31 games last season, Brown helped turn De'Aaron Fox into an All-Star. In 2022-23, Brown and the Kings had the best offensive efficiency since tracking began in 1996. Now, Brown is tasked with pushing the Knicks to the next level, into a tier of champions. Read my column on the impending hire here. GO FURTHER Mike Brown has faced pressure before, but this time might be different. Welcome to the Knicks Jerome Miron / Imagn Images The Hornets are adding Spencer Dinwiddie on a one-year deal, a league source tells our Christian Clark. That tells you a couple things about Charlotte: First, that the Hornets don't really view Collin Sexton as a point guard off the bench, and second, that a few guys on the fringes a year ago are probably not long for this roster. Josh Okogie has a non-guaranteed deal for $7.5 million; with the Hornets already having 15 guaranteed contracts plus the non-guaranteed deal of energizer Moussa Diabate and a likely roster deal for second-rounder Ryan Kalkbrenner, he would seem to be an easy choice to move on from. Additionally, Pat Connaughton, whom the Hornets are acquiring from Milwaukee, is on the books for $9.4 million but could be headed for a buyout if his contract can't be used in another trade, and 2023 first-rounder Nick Smith Jr. seems to be in a tenuous position; the team acquired three other guards in the offseason (Dinwiddie, Sexton and lottery pick Kon Knueppel) and is bringing back Tre Mann. Charlotte is also in a position to make more additions; the Hornets will be roughly $17 million from the tax line if they move on from Okogie and the non-guaranteed DaQuan Jeffries, and they still have access to their entire $14.1 million nontaxpayer midlevel exception. Given that the NTMLE can also operate as a trade exception, Charlotte may utilize this to take on a Connaughton-esque salary dump in return for more draft capital. Page 2
