UW investigates 3rd incident of discrimination on campus over last month

Faculty and University of Wisconsin police are looking into their third incident of discrimination on campus in the past month after a group of students were pushed and spit on in Sellery Hall. Synovia Knox and Francisco Velazquez were walking to their dorm room in Sellery Hall with two other women when they were confronted by another resident, who they say began yelling at them and said they didn’t belong because of economic status.
