Police, student clashes
taking racist overtones
(CPS) Students and po
lice at three different cam
puses suddenly find them
selves confronting each oth
er amid charges of racism
and excessive force.
Temple University and the
universities of Wisconsin
Milvvaukee and Illinois have
been plagued by confronta
tions that, some observers
say, are laced with racial
overtones
Other observers say the
confrontations are the re
sults of minority students’
increasing frustrations with
the isolation and hostility
they mu outlier daily on
ca rnpu ses
"That was just the catalyst

Student Union at Wisconsin
Milwaukee referring to an
April 20 incident in which
campus police arrested four
Iliac k students outside a
dorm following a shouting
match that got out of hand
Black student leaders ap
parentlv had met four days
earlier with university offi
cials to complain about un
fair treatment by campus po
lice.
Similar incidents occurred
at Temple in Philadelphia
and Illinois at Urbana-Cham
paign. At all three cam
puses. the incidents were
followed by massive student
outcries
"We've had this as an un
dorcurrent for years." Siegnl
said
An annual gathering of
black collegians at Virginia
Beach, Va . last fall broke
into a violent clash with po
lice The National Guard
was brought in to oust the
estimated 100,000 students,
and I t people were injured
and 220 were arrested dur
