“How Ignorant, how mentally ill and irresponsible do those on the radical Left and within the Democrat party machine and some in the media demand you be? Well, lets find some of the most recent sterling examples.”

That forced UW to admit ‘white guys’ and other groups not favored by the Woke.

This crap was already there, just not as widespread or as in your face as it is today. An observation on whether this was in reality a failure for the Republicans: On the same day that the Regents revote occurred, UW Madison announced the creation of a new program that will cover the full cost of pursuing an undergraduate degree for Wisconsin residents who are enrolled members of federally recognized Wisconsin Indian tribes. If the timing was coincidental, it certainly was a happy coincidence for the UW administration…

The school agrees to whatever is necessary in order to alleviate the pressure, and then continues on with business as usual. Much like the “compromises” we get from Democrats on the Hill.

Madison in the early 80’s. None of this crap existed then. Madtown has a highly accredited engineering school and it was tough. If you didn’t make it it had nothing to do with what you looked like or anything but your academic ability. When choosing, I seriously considered the Milwaukee School of Engineering, a private college. In today’s world, if I had it to do over again, it would be MSOE.
