UW Lifts Marching Band’s Suspension

MADISON, Wis. — The University of Wisconsin-Madison has lifted the suspension of the UW marching band, so it will perform at this Saturday’s game against Penn State.

The university held a news conference at 3 p.m. Wednesday to announce the status of the marching band.

Allegations of hazing, alcohol abuse and sexual misconduct prompted band director Mike Leckrone to suspend the band last Friday and a university investigation into the allegations.
