RE: Annual Minority and Disadvantaged Student
Report, pursuant to Section
36.25 (14m)(c) of the Wisconsin Statutes
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 2004-05 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 plan for multicultural and economically disadvantaged students.
This year marks the seventh 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.
At its meeting on April 7, 2006, 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.
Referred to committee on Colleges and Universities.
