Regent Vos

Digging up his record as a UW student regent in the early '90s, Sen. Taylor said Rep. Vos was "brilliant" in those days.

She said Vos said at the time that fee increases can sometimes be "necessary evils."

"I just think that Regent Vos was just brilliant," she said.

Vos responded that he thought the 19-year-old drinking age was a good idea at that time too, but doesn't seem so now.

He also supported a tuition freeze at that time, before he knew who was really footing the bill for the UW System, he said.

"I have been consistent in saying people shouldn't have to pay for what they can't afford," he said.
