Deaken Boggs said his concern when looking at which colleges to attend wasn’t how much attending would cost but what he wanted to learn.

Now a freshman at the University at the Wisconsin-Stevens Point, Boggs said he knows that the cost of higher education is a major factor for students. On Tuesday, he took part in a town hall meeting on student debt on the UWSP campus. The meeting was hosted by state Rep. Katrina Shankland, D-Stevens Point, state Sen. Julie Lassa, D-Stevens Point, and One Wisconsin Institute, a nonprofit progressive advocacy group.
