Wisconsin University Scholarship Lawsuit | Green Bay News

A conservative law firm is suing the University of Wisconsin-Madison over scholarships they claim violate the Constitution by using race as a factor—targeting at least 20 programs, including the Lawton Grant. The firm, which recently won a similar case before the Wisconsin Supreme Court, argues the university continues to fund these programs with taxpayer money. UW-Madison says it’s complying with the law and plans to fight back, even though it temporarily withdrew the Lawton policy—claiming some grants are still being processed. The lawsuit also challenges UW’s “Pool & Match” system, which uses race-neutral criteria but funds some awards through race-conscious sources. The plaintiffs want the court to declare these practices unconstitutional and stop future administration. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
