UWPD’s History: Gay Purges, Policing Students, & Breaking Protests

from City Cast Madison · host City Cast

Why do so many college campuses across the U.S. have their own police force? And are they really necessary? Those are the questions at the core of the new “Reorientation” podcast produced by the Rebecca M. Blank Center for Campus History at UW-Madison. To get the scoop on UWPD’s checkered history and why the center chose to go down this rabbit hole, Host Bianca Martin spoke with the center’s director and podcast co-host Kacie Lucchini Butcher.
