UW alum and Oscar winner Fredric March’s name was removed from a campus theater in 2018. Calls for its return are getting louder.

There’s a renewed push to restore Academy Award-winning actor Fredric March’s name on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus.

A student-led group voted in 2018 to remove the UW alum’s name from a theater in Memorial Union because of his association with a student group that shared a name with the Ku Klux Klan in the early 20th century.
