UW-Whitewater chancellor finalists named

MADISON, Wis. – University of Wisconsin System President Kevin P. Reilly today announced five finalists who are being considered for the position of chancellor at UW-Whitewater.


 


A 22-member search and screen committee, chaired by UW-Whitewater Professor Jimmy Peltier, recommended the finalists to Reilly and a special committee of the UW System Board of Regents chaired by Regent Danae Davis of Milwaukee.


 


The five candidates will participate in public forums from April 23 to April 30, where they will interact with faculty, academic staff, classified staff, students and community members.  Reilly and the Regent committee will interview the finalists in Madison on May 7.
