Sometimes you can tell that a politician is doing his job because he’s not in the headlines very often.
Such is the case with Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen, whose low-key, by-the-book approach so far is a welcome change from the turbulent tenure of his predecessor, Peg Lautenschlager.
Van Hollen also ignored GOP wailing over the University of Wisconsin System’s admission policy. He advised campuses last week that they can consider race as one of many factors in freshmen admissions. Yet Van Hollen cautioned System leaders that comprehensive, individualized evaluations of applications are still required.
