University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor Rebecca Blank enjoys a $495,000 salary, lives for free in a multi-million-dollar mansion, and pays someone $95,000 a year to write her speeches.

Well technically, the good taxpayers of Wisconsin pay for that speechwriter, and nearly all of Blank’s other perks. And they’re also now paying for a new slew of diversity initiatives on campus thanks to a group of disgruntled students who have raucously suggested in recent months that white people don’t believe #BlackLivesMatter.

All this and more has been too much for one PhD candidate in the History Department at the University of Wisconsin. Scholar Jason Morgan has thrown down the gauntlet in calling out campus leaders for balking at Gov. Scott Walker’s budget reforms.

“At a time when the costs of higher education nationwide are skyrocketing, due largely to administrative bloat, many have wondered whether these diversity sessions—attended by a small army of lavishly-compensated bureaucrats, including the Chancellor herself—are a wise allocation of university resources,” writes Morgan in The College Fix. “Many have also wondered whether these workshops, which seek ways to retain students of color, don’t actually make it more difficult for students to afford college by increasing the bureaucratic load for which incoming students must pay in the form of higher tuition.”

“The timing of these diversity workshops seems unwise from another angle, as well, because they raise the specter of institutional bias that has long haunted the very politically active Madison campus,” he added. “At a time when the UW is struggling to explain itself—and its value—to deeply skeptical taxpayers, these endless rounds of diversity re-education seem to confirm, for many, that the UW is much more interested in playing politics than in educating young people. And this politics increasingly seems to work in only one direction.”
