Wednesday on Lake Effect: Primary Results, Reading Education, Venture Capitalism, 'No Wake'

Wednesday on Lake Effect

We break down the results from yesterday’s primary election and talk about what’s being done to improve reading education in Wisconsin schools. Then, only a small percentage of the venture capital dollars that help new businesses grow, goes to the Midwest. We discuss what Milwaukee and the rest of the Midwest can do to attract investor dollars. Plus, worlds collide in a new play coming to the Milwaukee Chamber Theatre.

Guests:

  • Angelina Mosher Salazar, WUWM reporter
  • Emily Files, WUWM education reporter
  • John Austin, senior fellow, Brookings Institution
  • Erica Berman, playwright, No Wake
