Search begins for UW-Madison interim chancellor

The process for choosing an interim chancellor to fill in for outgoing University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor Carolyn “Biddy” Martin officially begins Thursday.

University of Wisconsin System President Kevin Reilly will appoint the interim chancellor after consulting with university faculty, administrators and alumni – along with the Board of Regents.

Reilly, who has been in Washington, D.C., on business, said Wednesday he has received a number of suggestions to fill the interim post. He said he will discuss possible candidates Thursday with the UW-Madison Faculty Senate, academic staff leadership and administrators.
