The University of Wisconsin Madison’s new focus on ending White Privilege will mean more than just a new mandatory class for all in-coming students.
UW Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank yesterday released her plan to address racial inequity. Blank said UW Madison will also create a new Office of Inclusive Education, spend millions of dollars to bring-in minority students and faculty members, and take a look at the UW’s campus history. Blank says the university has spent the past five years trying to increase the number of underrepresented students and faculty members, but it has not been enough.
