Welcome week for new students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison included a drag show performance that one drag queen joked had "good Christian values." It was sponsored by UW-Madison's new student office and the "Gender and Sexuality Campus Center."

Sad to hear about the passing of David Keene. He was the National @yaf chair when he was at the University of Wisconsin and went on to be a leader in the Conservative Movement for decades.

4. What does this mean in practice? Many faculty said they would be less likely to support hiring a candidate who expressed a conservative view compared to one who expressed a liberal view on abortion, immigration, transgender sports, or affirmative action.

🧵A survey of University of Wisconsin-Madison faculty released today revealed overwhelming ideological bias. Here are some of the key results from the Tommy G. Thompson Center's study: 1. 70% of UW faculty identify as liberal, while only 9% identify as conservative.

On behalf of @yaf, @WILawLiberty is out with a new Title VI complaint exposing @UWMadison's race-based scholarships. We hope our investigation will end these practices & open financial aid opportunities to every student. will-law.org/will-uncovers-m…

YAF works with and fights on behalf of conservative students across the country who face obstacles from campus leftists every day. We work with students to spread America’s founding ideals, including the belief that all people are created equal and endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights. We have not and will not give a platform to those who believe some people are less than equal due to their race or sex — nor do we give a platform to those who seek to propagate vile antisemitism or holocaust denial. Supporting and vigorously defending free speech — something YAF has done countless times from the Supreme Court to the court of public opinion for more than six decades — does not mean endorsing or platforming every viewpoint, especially those that contradict core conservative values. The times may change but conservative values do not. Neither will YAF.

Tonight's @WisconsinYAF conversation about ideological diversity at UW-Madison was a huge success. Students were excited to hear from our amazing faculty panelists. We're especially thankful to professor emeritus Donald Downs for coming to campus for the event!

The UW-Madison gender studies professor who is famous for twerking on stage with Lizzo has as insightful a take on Charlie's murder as you would imagine.

The University of Wisconsin–Madison announced that its DEI office will “sunset as a freestanding division." However, most of its operations are being shifted to other departments, and fewer than ten of its ~100 employees were laid off. From me, in @NRO: nationalreview.com/2025/07/d…

The best way to make college affordable is to keep costs down in the first place. We froze tuition when I was Governor. The UW System just got a funding increase in the recent state budget and they are still raising tuition by 5%. Totally wrong.
