 UW-Madison senior Johnathon Godlewski is frank about why he wants UW-Madison to sever ties with athletics apparel manufacturing giant Adidas.”I would just like to wear a Bucky Badger shirt without feeling bad about it,” Godlewski said.
Responding to a rising tide of similar sentiment, UW- Madison Chancellor John Wiley is sending an envoy to El Salvador this week to look into allegations that Adidas isn’t doing enough to address workers’ rights abuses at an apparel factory it formerly contracted with there.
