The Honorable, The Legislature:
Each April, the UW System submits the Annual Minority and Disadvantaged Student Report to the Governor and the Chief Clerk of each house of the Legislature, as required by Wisconsin Statutes. The 2005‐06 Minority and Disadvantaged Student Annual Report fulfills the requirement in Section
36.25 (14m)(c) of the Wisconsin State Statutes that the Board of Regents report annually by April 15 on its pre‐college, recruitment, and retention activities for multicultural and economically disadvantaged students. This is the eighth minority and disadvantaged student annual report under the Board of Regents‐approved
Plan 2008: Educational Quality Through Racial and Ethnic Diversity. The information contained in this report responds to the statutory requirement, and reflects some, but not all, of the initiatives and activities in Plan 2008. The report includes the following information:
•Summary information on pre-college initiatives and activities;
•Expenditures for student-of-color and disadvantaged- student programs; and
•Student financial assistance data.
At its meeting on April 13, 2007, the Board of Regents accepted the attached report for submission to the Governor and the Chief Clerk of each house of the Legislature for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under s.
13.172 (3). The attached report fulfills the requirements of this statute.
S171
