MADISON, Wis. — The University of Wisconsin marching band is cleared to play in Saturday’s game at Camp Randall, after an investigation into hazing last week led to suspension of the band for last week’s game against Ohio State. Fans now ponder whether these actions were serious enough to match the punishment.
“I mean, the fact that they’ve been in trouble before puts them in a hard spot, but I also have some friends in the band and they say it probably was a measure that didn’t have to be taken that extremely,” said Amy Boerneke, a UW-Madison grad student.
