Skateboarding on Campus and Examining UW-Madison’s 1960s ‘Gay Purge’

Welcome to the final episode of season four of the Student Dive. We recap stories in our final print edition of the semester, the Spring Farewell issue. First, we discuss the legal status of skateboarding on campus and the lack of accessible skate parks for students. Additionally, we discuss the “Gay Purge” at UW-Madison in the 1960s as studied by the Public History Project. Co-hosted by Hope Karnopp and Tyler Katzenberger. Edited by Julia Wiessing.
