UW’s Wiley attends political fundraiser

University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor John Wiley made a guest appearance at a political fundraiser on Thursday night for a Brookfield Republican.

Sen. Ted Kanavas’ campaign held the $100-per-person cocktail reception at the Madison Club, with information technology as the theme. Wiley’s special assistant, Casey Nagy, said the chancellor wanted to attend because it would be an opportunity to meet many people in the field of technology and venture capital.

Wiley would not make an endorsement or give any money at the event, Nagy said.
