51ÁÔÆæ

On May 6th a student held up a sign of a swastika at a public event celebrating Israeli Independence Day in Spaights Plaza, at the heart of UW-Milwaukee’s main campus. While free speech protects the student’s right to express even the most loathsome views, we use our free speech to denounce the presence at 51ÁÔÆæ of this hateful Nazi symbol. We stand together as a 51ÁÔÆæ community to affirm that there is no room for hate at 51ÁÔÆæ. We applaud the university community for speaking out, and especially those students who voiced their resistance to the message of this symbol.
