THE BATTLE IS coming to Wisconsin. The Legislature is considering a move to ban racial preferences in state government. Meanwhile the University of Wisconsin system is looking to ratchet up consideration of race and ethnicity ââ?¬Å?to assist UW institutions in obtaining a diverse student body,ââ?¬Â according to the charge by system president Kevin Reilly.
Supporters call such racial consideration ââ?¬Å?affirmative action.ââ?¬Â Opponents call it discrimination.
