Historically marginalized students ‘sad and scared’ after Trump’s win

When walking to class the morning after Election Day, UW-Madison sophomore Ali Khan said he felt like someone close to him passed away. In his classes Wednesday, classmates of Khan were laughing about the election results— a perspective wildly different than his own, as he has friends who “are fearing for what is going to happen to them.” “It felt like it only affected you, and I feel like today, these students are not just historically marginalized, but feel marginalized today," Khan said. Many students from groups that Donald Trump regularly targeted during his campaign echoed Khan’s feelings.

Goldrick-Rab returns to Madison to talk future of Wisconsin Idea

The Wisconsin Idea–the UW System’s grounding principle for outreach to the state—will only be put into action when all students have access to affordable education, according to Sara Goldrick-Rab, former UW-Madison sociology professor and author of “Paying the Price.” In her Tuesday lecture “The Future of Wisconsin Higher Education,” Goldrick-Rab investigated how the state’s student aid policies are falling short of meeting student need and are failing the students who need it most. “To me, what the Wisconsin Idea has meant in my life is to do better than this,” Goldrick-Rab said.
