And I remember when I was at UWM was when the Act 10 protests were happening with former Governor Scott Walker. And then there was protests happening on campus, which I was helping lead.

And the reason he did that is because he understood the power of the student movement. You look back to the anti war days, the Vietnam days, the civil rights era. (34:41–34:48)
