WPR Reports on UW-W Faculty Senate open letter regarding new process for Chancellor appointments

Faculty at UW-Whitewater have raised questions about the Chancellor selection process in an open letter. It says UW Board of Regents’ policy changes in 2015 and 2017 have marginalized the role of faculty and other stakeholders in choosing the next campus leader. It also accused UW leaders of not being transparent with faculty or listening to suggestions about extending the process.

“The message is clear that meaningful campus input during the selection of the next UW-Whitewater Chancellor is not valued or wanted by UW-System or the Board of Regents,” the letter said.
