Hiding from the critics: University of Wisconsin-Madison sued for censoring comments on their Facebook and Instagram pages
On Feb. 10, the Animal Legal Defense Fund filed a suit against the Board of Regents at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for allegedly hiding comments criticizing the university on their social media pages.
The university is being sued on behalf of an alumna, Madeline Krasno, who worked as an undergraduate animal caretaker in the university’s primate research lab before graduating from UW-Madison in 2013. Krasno is an animal rights activist who says that she witnessed animal abuse first-hand while working in the university lab. This led her to take action by bringing attention to the university’s animal testing practices via the comment sections of the university’s Facebook and Instagram accounts beginning in September 2020.
March for Life During COVID-19 2 months ago cuatower

When The Catholic University of America announced that the spring semester of 2021 would begin with a two-week quarantine, many students’ immediate question was: what about the March for Life?
The March for Life has always been an important day on campus at CUA. This year, the Catholic University pro-life community demonstrated for the lives of the unborn without attending the traditional march to the Supreme Court. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the march was virtual.
March organizers decided to limit the number of in-person demonstrators earlier in January when the status of the march came into question. A few hundred pro-life leaders from around the country who represent the many branches of the pro-life movement took to the streets behind the official March for Life banner. The Rally for Life was broadcasted virtually.
