University of Wisconsin President Ray Cross is slated to meet with about students who are demanding more measures to recognize diversity on campus.
About 20 students waited for Cross to finish a Board of Regents meeting on the UW-Madison campus Friday. The students held signs that read “Our president is black, so there’s no reason to talk about race, right?” and “Black and brown lives matter.” As the meeting wound down they silently stood up from their front row seats.
