MADISON, Wis. (AP) - A University of Wisconsin law professor is getting criticism for comments made during a lecture that students say were offensive, including "Hmong men have no talent other than to kill."
Professor Leonard Kaplan also told his class that many Hmong become criminals and gang members and purchase their wives, according to an e-mail distributed by a Hmong student upset by the comments.
Kaplan, a law school faculty member since 1974, has called the Feb. 15 remarks a misunderstanding and met privately with offended students to apologize. A forum on the issue is set for next week.
