Update from UW-Madison on continuing shutdown

The federal government shutdown has entered a third week, without progress toward a resolution.

Federal Relations, the Office of Legal Affairs, and Research and Sponsored Programs (RSP) continue to monitor the status and impacts as they occur.

To date, most federal agencies have been relatively quiet in terms of new actions that directly affect UW. The university has received only one shutdown-related stop work order on a grant funded project.

The university is monitoring developments closely and will post updates as new guidance becomes available both here and on the dedicated shutdown page for the research community: RSP Federal Shutdown Guidance.
