The studies are available from the site. I hope Governor Scott Walker shows courage on this issue, too.

Yet we live in a world of reputed white racism. Meanwhile virtually every school, the feds, cities, courts, corporations, media - all are run by liberals with pro minority policies. Where is the source of all this racism in today’s society?

[silverleaf]

academics and liberals will see nothing wroing with this, as a form of atonement and “reparations”

unless and until their own childern and grnadchildren are rejected for admissions because of their non-PC skin colors and ethnicism

I suspect Wisconsin is probably typical of all our colleges and law/medical schools

[MrB]

Liberals are anti-white racists and anti-male sexists, simple enough.

[MrB]

Favoring blacks to whites by 576 to 1?

I can’t comprehend a liberal trying to defend this.

Wouldn’t Full Reparations include relocation to one’s continent of ancestry?

[TexasFreeper2009]

what exactly are the Asians having to atone for other than working hard?

It is unfortunate that there is no data available for most schools. I suspect that Wisconsin is similar to other states also.

I have been a university faculty for almost 30 years. I do not know of any administrator who is not politically correct. Perhaps there are some closet non PC individuals but I have never met one. Universities as their own little world, have become leftist Utopias in which markets do not exist and outcomes can be engineered by good intentions. One somewhat dirty secret is the level of enrichment that university administatros feel entitled. In every university in which administrators have defined benefit pensions, pension spiking is epidemic.

There is one part of universities that is not politically correct at least in most areas. Doctoral programs in most areas do not have any racial preferences. Medical and law schools are highly politically correct but these programs are not research-oriented. No faculty member wants to supervise an incompetent doctoral student. Faculty only want the most competent. The same faculty are happy to subject society to incompetence fostered by racial preferences but they refuse to subject themselves directly to incompetence of racial preferences.

Brilliant! Now that's what I'm talking about!

[grumpygresh]

How about a class action lawsuit against UW?

[Williams]

Corporations also have fully embedded racial preference policies. Many vendors cannot work for major corporations without demonstrating a set percentage of minority employees.

[CaptainAmiigaf]

What do ASIANS have to atone for? Easy answer—Working very hard and actually SUCCEEDING!! Unforgivable.

[RowdyFFC]

1...2...3 and a herd of liberal whites dash through the door to file their reparations lawsuits...easy money, man, easy money! Gimme, gimme, gimme!

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

Doh!

2/5ths of the worlds population is Asian. They should never be considered a minority. They are hard working though, no doubt. If they could dump the commies they would be an economic force to be reckoned with.

The same faculty are happy to subject society to incompetence fostered by racial preferences but they refuse to subject themselves directly to incompetence of racial preferences.

National Review noted that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, that strong advocate of Affirmative Action for others had, over the course of 13 years, hired 57 law clerks to work for her, of which NONE were black.

Perhaps this is why a college degree is no longer the ticket to prosperity it once was. Once you admit a less academically qualified candidate you either must remediate them or continue the lowered standards through to matriculation.

You then get what we see today:

1. Thousands with half a degree and debt.

2. Thousands with college degrees and fluff for brains.

Everything liberals touch turns to lead.

I know of an econ prof at a Big Ten school who promotes homosexuals exclusively in the grad program. The further you go, the further you go.

Meanwhile virtually every school, the feds, cities, courts, corporations, media - all are run by liberals with pro minority policies.

Which can breed white racism! It's a perfect self-fulfilling prophecy which the Democrats have been carnival-barking for years!

Dems scream there is white racism so the minorities need added preferences!
So they give minorities added preferences so much so as to ACTUALLY DISCRIMINATE against WHITES! (not make equal in anyway)
This makes the whites dislike or complain about minorities and the preferences!
Thus allows the Dems to say, "See all this white racism?!?"

The marksmanship training for the UW-Madison faculty is pretty entertaining. All the targets are on the top of their shoes.
