You should really do more research before you start making accusations.

WARF was established because the researchers don't have time to mess with patent lawyers and royalty issues. The "Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation" (WARF) has the sole purpose of filing and protecting the discoveries of the Universities Faculty and Students. They inventors receive compensation from WARF for their discoveries, however in academia, it is more important to have your name recognized with the discovery than to get tons of money from it. Most of the money goes back into research, which is why the University of Wisconsin consistently ranks highly in the top Research Institutions of the World.
