Campus Connection: Ward’s term as UW-Madison interim chancellor extended

University of Wisconsin System President Kevin Reilly announced Tuesday he is extending the term of UW-Madison interim Chancellor David Ward. When Ward was named to the post back on June 29 it was a one-year appointment. But in mid-September, UW-Madison faculty, staff and students started asking UW System leadership if Ward?s stay could be extended, mainly because the university is in the midst of tackling several significant challenges while also implementing a range of institutional reforms.
