Are college students in need of more ethnic studies?
In Madison, Wisconsin, the answer is Yes.
So says a school government.
As reported by The College Fix, the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Associated Students of Madison (ASM) recently unanimously voted to bump up the number of such classes required for graduation.
The amount of increase: 100%.
Following the vote to upgrade three to six, committee leaders issued a news release:
UW-Madison is responsible for providing students with the knowledge to become more understanding and empathetic individuals.
The group made clear there is indeed systemic racism, and the classes will fight such a foe:
UW-Madison has seen an increase in bias and hate towards minority groups in recent years, leading the university to consider ways to foster a more inclusive environment.
