 A new report shows the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point has a 420-million dollar economic impact on the region and state. That's according to NorthStar Consulting, which compiled the data and issued the report.

The UWSP Vice Chancellor of Business Affairs is Greg Diemer. He says the overall economic impact is up slightly from the last report done five years ago, and that a dollar invested in the campus travels through the community several times. "A dollar invested in UW Stevens Point produces 11 dollars back in economic improvement throughout the region and to the State of Wisconsin."
