Residents of University Apartments on the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s west campus say that ROTC exercises in the area known as Eagle Heights are too close for comfort.
“They’re out there in camouflage with weapons that look real. It’s scaring the crap out of us,” said Maggie Shapiro Haskett.
Haskett said that the woody areas near the housing are heavily used by residents for hiking and jogging and that many others use the community gardens.
