  • Pin a medal on that Verona high school disciplinarian!

    DEI is screwing up our kids! The superintendent of Verona’s public schools wanted to fire an educator who struck a student. Thankfully, after what the Wisconsin State Journal describes as a “tense” seven-hour meeting, the school board declined to do so. Don’t just keep the district’s crisis management director on the job. Blaska says give…

  • Girls are not the only ones who just want to have fun!

    Death by a thousand administrators! No college experience is complete without at least a little Animal House excess. The statute of limitations having expired years ago, the Head Groundskeeper recalls Harvey Roesler’s Wapatoolie parties. (Harvey was one of our predecessors as editor of the student newspaper and a legend at UW-Oshkosh.) Pour whatever Boone’s Farm,…

Katoine Richardson is the 19-year-old with three felony bail jumpings prohibited from possessing a weapon and under a court curfew. (More here.) Madison police found him out and about on State Street after midnight in possession…

Madison’s public schools violated state statue when it did not call in the police after an East high school sophomore was pummeled…

  • Brazen car thieves are ignoring speed limits!

    Can’t they read? (Well, maybe they really can’t) It’s like passing that ordinance early in Reagan’s term proclaiming Madison WI a nuclear-free zone. That’s how the Head Groundskeeper feels about the signage on S. Whitney Way announcing, in solar-powered electricity, the speed limit is now 25 miles per hour. On a four-lane thoroughfare divided by…
