Rep. Upthegrove targets special deal for student-athletes


Kudos to Dave Upthegrove for taking on a small, but unfair practice favoring student-athletes over other students in UW admissions.
Equality of opportunity is a core American value, and must be defended in places big and small.
In tough economic times, equal access to higher education is more important than ever. If we don't have room for every deserving student at our state universities (and we should!) let us at least make decisions on the basis of academic merit.
