I've often been critical of university boards, but kudos to the University of Board of Regents for courageously rejecting a deal with the right-wing WI legislature. The deal would have had capitulate to demands to cut activities in exchange for releasing already approved funds for pay raises. Republicans also demanded creation of a professorship in "conservative political thought." Yikes. @academicchatter https://www.channel3000.com/news/uw-regents-reject-deal-with-legislature-to-freeze-dei-positions-unlock-funding/article_ee2d96c6-96b4-11ee-ba43-37131614657c.html

This is a preposterous claim by Rep. . There are a total of between 10-12 million residing in the United States. The idea that another 10 million have entered the United States in the 3 years has been is baseless nonsense. But this is the sort of deliberate dishonesty that lawmakers base their existence on. Just them out.
