Madison School Scandal, Epic Contracts, and Wombats in the City

It’s the Friday News Roundup and this week Molly Stentz and Dylan Brogan dig into problems behind the scenes at Madison schools after complaints come to light. Also, how Epic Systems' worker contracts affect our larger tech economy - and what the feds might do about it.

And did you know we have our very own Australian Football League team right here in Madison? The Wisconsin Wombats are here and they’re playing in Reindahl Park this weekend. And unlike the Brewers, the Packers, and Forward Madison FC, they’re not looking for stadium upgrades. Just don’t ask us how to play this soccer-hockey-rugby-frisbee mashup.
