Who are the top candidates to lead the University of Wisconsin-Madison while it searches for a permanent replacement for Chancellor Biddy Martin, who announced Tuesday she?s stepping down to lead Amherst College?
I posed that question to more than a dozen campus insiders over the past few days, and three names were consistently mentioned as top options: Paul DeLuca, John Wiley and Gary Sandefur.
….Insiders say the search to replace Martin will likely take eight months to a year, so whoever is named interim chancellor will have an opportunity to make a significant mark on campus.
