Barrows Cites Racism, Other Factors as Reason for ‘Justice Falling Through the Cracks’ (WisPolitics.com)

MADISON — Former UW-Madison administrator Paul Barrows said in an interview broadcast Sunday that he believes the controversy surrounding his demotion in 2004 stems in part from racism.

Appearing on Madison Ch. 3 WISC-TV’s “For the Record” in the aftermath of his victory before the Academic Staff Appeals Committee, Barrows said, “I think there is a racial dimension to what has happened to me.”
