Since 2000, whenever I hear ''University of
Wisconsin,'' I think of students publicly bragging about how many times
they were able to vote for Al Gore, using fake ID. Gov. Jim Doyle
(Democrat, of course) has repeatedly vetoed attempts to institute
a voter-ID requirement in the state, using the Donk argument that it
would somehow disfranchise minorities and the poor. Here's a snip
from Mark Michaelsen's look at the school [What's the Idea?]., and the state of the State.

''Three UW professors
were convicted of lurid sex felonies in 2005. One used administrative
leave to draw pay while in prison, convicted for a term of eight to ten
years on three counts of sexual assault. It took UW nearly a year to
fire the three. Another administrator was charged with sexual
harassment. Almost crowded off the front page by crime stories, the UW
Regents raised the minimum pay for chancellor at UW to $307,000;
current UW chancellor John Wiley makes more because he has been
chancellor since 2001. With the raise, he makes about the average
salary for university presidents at major public schools. That is in
addition to the several hundred dollars Wiley gets monthly for a car
allowance. The timing and symbolism were terrible.''
