Hardly anyone starts out in life with the goal of becoming a college president. Biddy Martin certainly didnâ??t.
At the time she graduated from Brookville High School in 1969, she was a good all-around student who loved to read and held the all-time scoring record for the Beesâ?? girls basketball team.
â??I had no idea what I wanted to do next,â? she said.
Now, she does. She wants to be the chancellor at the University of Wisconsin, the school from which she received a graduate degree in German literature more than 20 years ago. And obviously, the feeling is mutual.
