Preserve DEI requirements in the University of Wisconsin System
Preserve DEI requirements in the University of Wisconsin System
The Issue
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion requirements are under threat in the UW school system. This is coming from federal pressure to remove these requirements from colleges across the country, and threats to withdraw funding from school systems. The removal of these requirements could potentially cause a lack of representation, support services, and a sense of belonging for students attending these colleges. This petition is for students at UW- Green Bay, to show how actual students feel about the removal of these policies. Here are a few resources that can help you learn more about this threat:
