A few days ago, Chancellor Biddy Martin announced the University of Wisconsinâ??s intent to end business relations in March with Russell Athletics, a clothing manufacturing company contracted to supply apparel donning UW-Madison logos. The reasoning behind the termination of this relationship was the companyâ??s aggressive action against workersâ?? movements to unionize, particularly shutting down a plant in Choloma, Honduras, where workers were beginning to form a union.
