Show Notes

University of Wisconsin system president Jay Rothman faces potential ouster, with regents pushing for his resignation or termination. Rothman, who has led the system since 2022, has dealt with challenges like budget cuts and campus protests. Republican state rep David Murphy supports Rothman, accusing regents of secrecy and potentially targeting his free speech stance. Rothmans contract allows for termination with six months notice, and a new governor is set to reshape the board. The Madison flagship also loses its chancellor, adding to the systems shakeup.
