UW-Milwaukee must act NOW. UW-Milwaukee’s inaction regarding the pro-Palestinian encampment on its campus is shameful. Get a spine. At least at extremely liberal UW-Madison, police, given the green light by university officials, briefly tried to clear the encampment there and made arrests (including of faculty).
