A national fraternity says a decision by University of Wisconsin Police to cancel an event that was to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month is “very close to racial profiling, if not racial profiling.”
The Madison branch of Lambda Theta Phi, a Latino fraternity, had arranged for the celebration to be held Saturday in Memorial Union’s Tripp Commons, but was told last week that the event would be canceled due to concerns the University Police had about security.
