By the numbers
The University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh plans to cut about 200 staff and administrators as it deals with an $18 million deficit in its budget. Some staff and students protested the cuts this week.
The underlying numbers
| Enrollment 10,054 in 2003 9,042 in 2022 | Teaching Staff 583 in 2003 595 in 2022 |
| Nonteaching Professional Staff 317 in 2003 349 in 2022 | Administrative Leaders 64 in 2003 122 in 2022 |
Staffing is by headcount. Enrollment is by full-time equivalents.
2011 data are missing; UW System accountability dashboard blames incomplete data.
2018 was the merger of two-year UW centers in Fond du Lac and Menasha with UW-Oshkosh. Figures before then do not include the two outlying campuses. Figures after then include them.
